Closed Door Conversation is a podcast where we open dialogue, discuss and explore any and all situations that people experience behind closed doors. The host Mil Ivory will hold open discussions with a variety of special guest to bring to you real, raw, non judgmental open conversations for all walks of life.

Your Peace. Your Responsibility.
Monday Oct 17, 2022
Monday Oct 17, 2022
Back in the day, not even way back because some people still feel like being strong is a form of strength. I may even agree to a certain degree BUT once it starts to affect who you are physically, emotionally, financially and spiritually you need to do something different! When you know better you do better and we as a society now know that be strength looks different. We now know that you can not our from an empty cup. We now know that we are responsible for our own individual happiness and inner peace. The biggest thing now that we know these things are what are we going to do about it? Are we strong enough to take the hard steps of putting our self first? Mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. It is our responsibility! Remember the conversation about self love? If you have not listened to it go back and listen! Self love is not selfish! Neither is protecting your peace! It’s a necessity in todays world! Let’s talk about it!

I’m Poly and Proud Part 2
Thursday Sep 15, 2022
Thursday Sep 15, 2022
In part 1 and part 2 of this episode our host Mil Ivory sits with fellow podcaster and host of Dear Poly podcast and have a conversation about his choice to live a polyamory lifestyle. In this conversation Phillip helps to unravel some of the confusing (or what seems to be confusing to the “outside” world) terms and misconceptions of his lifestyle. First thing that is established is that polyamory and polygamy is not the same thing. Which is a common misconception about the lifestyle. THEN we dive into some of the different terms why he choose this lifestyle or how this lifestyle choose him is probably more accurate and some of his experiences.
The goal of this conversation is to give you a better understanding of why someone will choose this lifestyle as well as to help clear up some of the misconceptions of what people assume this lifestyle is.
Make sure you tune into part one and part 2. Although we covered a lot I feel like there is sooooo much more to be discussed so we may revisit at a later time.

Tuesday Aug 23, 2022
Our Host Mil Ivory sits with guest/Co Host and fellow podcasters of Not your Normal Discussion Podcast in part 1 and 2 of this episode to discuss why we think people may not be comfortable with their sexuality and why they may nor be comfortable with sexual exploitation when they should be! Of course there were a lot of theories and opinions on the topic on hand. So many that we are definitely doing a life chat about it soon so make sure to leave you comments and opinions down below or email us. Set your alerts so that you are tuned in for our live on our social media platforms. Mil felt like it was important to have this conversation because so many people are first not comfortable it’s their sexuality, so there for they struggle in the sexual exploration category! Rather they are ashamed, have trust issues or just plain shy on the subject our hope is that people realize that sexuality and all that comes with it is a very personal decision. It is also natural to want to explore and it is something that you should not be ashamed of. Although often over looked as a major issue issues surrounding sexuality and unfulfilled sexual desires are a major problem. Being confident in your sexuality and open to explore sexually place a major part of maintaining mental health for some. So YES I definitely think it is safe to say no matter what anyone things you should not be ashamed of your sexuality and sexual preferences! It is not a once size fit all type of deal. So do you, be you live laugh love lust ! Do it in a safe, confident, an unapologetic manner because sexual coordination and emotional stability complement each other!😉

If you missed part 1 of this conversation that posted last week go back and listen before you proceed. Host Mil Ivory sits down with fellow podcasters Big Smash and Rashad Burton to have a well needed conversation about how things look through the lens of a black man. The simple honest truth is a black man struggles will always look different than any other race. Therefore the lens that they see the world through will look different from another other race regardless of social status and income bracket and in these two episodes we talk about it.
