This series is hosted by EbonyJanice featuring her friends and faves talking about our life, healing, knowing, and growing in these times. The term “Casual Brilliance” came to EbonyJanice on her journey to decolonizing her own intellect and authority and healing from her imposter syndrome. She realized brilliance showed up in very casual spaces that wouldn’t historically been considered credible.

Casually Brilliant: EPISODE 2: UNEARTH & BLOOM
Khadijah and Zakiyyah Abdul-Mateen are Licensed Mental Health Professionals & Intergenerational Healers liberating mind and body trauma. We had the opportunity to talk about the difference between “healing generational trauma” versus the language of “breaking generational curses.” We also discussed the journey to ancestral reverence and spent a bit of time talking about how our elders often filtered many of their gifts (our gifts) through the Christian Demonic Filter as a way to “keep us safe.” 🤭 This was such an AMAZING conversation!

Candace (https://twitter.com/CandyCornball) is an Educator, a Baptist Minister, a Writer, a Queer/Abolitionist, and one of the most profound thinkers of our generation. In this debut episode of Casually Brilliant, we discuss black people’s healthy and unhealthy ways of coping with trauma, Candace troubles some of our collective thoughts about God, and I think the video version of this discussion has some random choreography to Candace’s current favorite viral video entitled, “If God Don’t Do It!” You can learn more about Candace Simpson and various ways to support her work at fishsandwichheaven.com (https://fishsandwichheaven.com/)
