Ep. 47 Understanding and Navigating Grief w/ Anthony Byrd
How do you repurpose your grief? Some of us don't even give ourselves a chance to unpack our losses let alone take the energy from them and redefine them. On this episode I sit down with my Brother Anthony Byrd to talk about what grief looks like to him as a Black man in America. We talk through some of the ways to work through the feelings of loss so it doesn't hold us hostage but liberates and supports our expression.

Ep. 46 Leaning into the Transitions w/ Lara Bergstedt
FIVE TRANSITIONS THOUGH!?
I'm going through FIVE TRANSITIONS!!
If you've ever had to overcome the death of an older version of you so you can step into a new level then you know how much of a drag the universe can put you through. So when I'm looking around at the craziness going on in the world, I hear so many people talking about the changes they're experiencing, and I look at my pattern and see I'm in the middle of FIVE TRANSITIONS, no wonder it's been feeling like we're getting dragged by our hair down the hallway!
I HAD to call my good friend Lara to chop it up about how she navigated some of her toughest transitions and get us some professional concepts to get on the other side like the bosses we are! Lara Bergstedt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with her own telehealth practice. Her background along with her personality immediately connected with me so I knew I had to have her here to share her light story with you guys too!
We have soooo much to talk about, so grab your snacks, whatever you working on, and maybe a pen and pad to take some notes and let's get into some things.

Ep. 45 Holding Space for Each Other pt. 2 w/ Marc Malone, Chante'l Johnson, & Shavon Smith
In Part 2, we keep the conversation going and get real about how emotional intelligence shows up in our relationships for real, not just in theory or Instagram quotes.
We talk about joking with your partner—because let’s be honest, humor is part of how a lot of us survive and connect. But we also get into when joking is love… and when it’s actually a way to avoid saying what you really feel. Sometimes we laugh to bond. Sometimes we laugh so we don’t have to be vulnerable. And knowing the difference can save a relationship.
We also dig into being your authentic self with your partner. That means showing up as who you actually are, not who you think you’re supposed to be to keep the peace or not get left. No code-switching at home. No shrinking. Just learning how to be comfortable being seen—and letting somebody love the real you.
And yes, we talk about emotions. The kind we were told to “get over,” “pray away,” or keep tucked in. We break down how to name what you’re feeling, say it out loud without popping off or shutting down, and stay in the conversation even when it gets uncomfortable.
This episode is for folks trying to love better without losing themselves, laugh without deflecting, and grow without feeling like something’s wrong with them. Expect real talk, a few “that’s me” moments, and conversations that feel like they came straight from the kitchen table.
Because healing doesn’t mean you stop being yourself.
It means you stop hiding who you are.
