Laughter and Libations
Laughter and Libations is about the intentional pursuit of joy. I'm challenging myself to be courageous and share my stories as I shake, stir, strain, steep, brew, and mix up my favorite libations and laugh my way into a more joyful life. I’ll share experiences with a focus on self-care and self-discovery. Come join me on this journey.

Episode 110 (Replay)
This episode is dedicated to my father, Larry Campbell. On the occasion of his 79th birthday, we gathered together for an entire weekend at my parents' home in Cartersville, Georgia. Yes, I was on location--in the country--for this recording. Yes, there are special guests, and you know I don't really do that! lol.
It was a weekend that I'll never forget. Sitting down to have a candid Q and A session with my siblings was a first. Having our father present was a gift. Having my mother in the background was a gift and also funny at times. You can hear her in the background just talking, talking, and talking. I couldn't edit it out. I can only do so much. Listen. Laugh. Remember to celebrate every moment you have with your family!
Family Present for the Celebration:
- My Parents: Vivian and Larry
- My Brother: Arnold and Robin (wife)
- My Sister: Chanda, Chauncey (husband), Kyland aka Lando (son)
- My Husband: Woody
Mentions:
- Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.
- mrs.allpinkeverything (see my sister on IG)
