RONDA ROUSEY’S STORY: THROUGH MY FATHER’S EYES (2016)

GENRE : DOCUMENTARY

Written and directed by the former ex-international boxing champion Gary Stretch, the documentary tells the story of Ronda Rousey, the first female UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) champion of the world. The film isn’t perfect, the lighting is often off, the music is cheesy and the interviews may seem kind of amateurish sometimes, but it remains very moving and is the only film about Ronda. Known for being a very feminine and attractive woman, the film goes deeper than just showing a beautiful girl that can throw a punch. It portrays a very smart, determined and hard-working athlete that made her name in a male-dominated field and certainly didn’t have it easy growing up. Her first breath was a struggle to survive, as Ronda was born with her umbilical cord wrapped around her neck. For a split second, Ronda stopped breathing, but her will to survive made her fight for her life. The incident was so impactful that for six years, Ronda couldn’t speak properly. Only her sister understood her mumbled words. She became a very frustrated, self-deprecating girl, who was in her own little world and could only depend on herself.

When she was only eight, her father, whom she was very close to, committed suicide. Indeed, he found out he had a fatal degenerative disease that was going to weaken him to death, and didn’t want his three daughters to see him weak. At the same time, Ronda took up judo and was noticeably better than the other girls. She developed her own style and her mother took her to an all-Armenian men mixed martial arts gym, where she got tougher and tougher. She learned from the best and trained with bigger and stronger men than her. At only 21, she won a bronze medal in the Olympics in judo, came back, struggled with homelessness, started MMA at a time when Dana White, the UFC President said no women will ever fight in his MMA organization. Two years later, he made Ronda the main event at her first pro UFC fight. She won within 50 seconds with her famous arm-bar.

The documentary is very intimate and touching, but still inspiring, because we really dig deep to understand how Ronda finds her mental strength and sense of discipline. The film was available on Netflix until recently, but can still be found on streaming websites.

Honoring Your Wife

5 Things That Empower Me As A Woman

Empowerment, by definition, is “the process of becoming stronger and more confident, especially in controlling one’s life and claiming one’s rights.” I can pair this definition so well to the change I’ve seen in myself over the last couple of years since leaving school. I can physically feel how much more confident I am, as…

Individually

             Every day, at just after midnight, our calendar changes.  In around four weeks, it changes again.  When twelve months have passed, another change is marked.  In ten more years, it’s called something else entirely.

             It’s a sort of random-yet-confining set of rules, this flipping and assigning, these days to weeks to months to years to decades.  But our culture embraces the���

Here, she was free from men like Stelios and Drakon. Her body was no longer soft, her muscles no longer weak. Her feet were quicker and surer when she traveled the mountain paths. She knew how to gather her own wood, build a fire, and find food in the forest. She no longer missed every target with her arrows. Self-assurance and self-reliance were as intoxicating as freedom.

Why Do Black Girls Rock?

Why Do Black Girls Rock?

Do we really have to ask this question?  Black Girls Rock because we are Fearfully and Wonderfully made!  “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” Psalm 139:14

Wait a minute, aren’t all of God’s children fearfully and wonderfully made?  Why Yes, however, I must say, black women have endured and overcome so much throughout…
