    Season 2, Episode 4 - Beauty, Confidence and Healing: It's More Than Hair

    "Beauty, Confidence, and Healing:  It’s More Than Hair" perfectly describes Cynthia Meadow's gifts and passion and her salon: Abliss  Upscale Styling Studio, one of Jacksonville’s most sought-after hair studios. Owner Cynthia Meadows is far more than a savvy business owner. She is a transformation specialist and beauty expert whose journey began at just 14 years old, doing hair in her mother’s kitchen. “I was braiding all the neighborhood girls’ hair and wanted to be the best braider in the world,” she recalls. But for Cynthia, it was always about more than hair. Her passion started even earlier. At just five years old, she found joy in reshaping and styling the hair on her baby dolls, fascinated by the creativity and transformation it allowed. Today, the gifted hands her mother prayed over while Cynthia was still in the womb now transform hundreds of heads locally and nationally. Yet her true gift goes beyond styling hair. Cynthia has a rare ability to improve, impart, inspire, and encourage—helping women build confidence by nurturing their inner beauty. She believes that when someone sits in her chair, she can shift their energy and transform their personal atmosphere. Cynthia’s accomplishments are impressive. She is a celebrity stylist, the official stylist for the Jacksonville Roar, a former beauty editor for Sheen Magazine, and has been featured in more than 50 national publications while gracing the covers of two magazines. Still, her greatest joy and proudest role is guiding, loving, and nurturing her daughter, Brooklyn. This episode is fire for mothers, business owners, and aspiring stylists alike. Cynthia shares powerful wisdom, personal insight, and practical business gems throughout the conversation. This is definitely one you’ll want in your grab-and-go podcast library.

    Episode 1 Season 2 - When Compassion Meets Conflict

    WHEN COMPASSION MEETS CONFLICT In sports, winners get the glory. No matter how well you play, if you don’t win, you’re often overlooked. But sometimes the real story isn’t found on the scoreboard. We all know a single point can decide a game; one point ahead is victory, one point short is heartbreak, even after a magnificent performance. That was the reality following the Jacksonville Jaguars’ 2026 playoff loss, when one reporter chose humanity over routine. Veteran Jacksonville Free Press journalist and host of #LynnandFriends, Lynette Lynn Jones followed her heart in a moment when a coach and a city were carrying the weight of a tough defeat. Instead of leading with questions, she led with compassion. Her decision sparked criticism and raised an important conversation about the balance between empathy and professional protocol in sports journalism. In this powerful Season Two premiere of the TRUST, Then Know, The Jackie Boyd Podcast, Lynn Jones takes us inside that emotional press conference moment, when instinct, kindness, and compassion spoke louder than policy. Together, we explore why simple encouragement can feel out of place in competitive spaces and whether there’s room for more humanity in sports. We also honor Black History Month, as this meaningful conversation was recorded at one of Jacksonville’s most historic institutions, the home of the Jacksonville Free Press. If you appreciate authenticity, heart, and “keep-it-real” conversations, this episode with Lynn Jones - one of the most genuine and compassionate voices you’ll ever hear -  is one you don’t want to miss.

    Episode 25 - The Psychology of Discipline

    The Psychology of Discipline | Featuring Dr. Janette Edwards Why is it so hard to stick with the very things we say we want? From abandoned goals to broken resolutions, so many of us struggle to stay consistent — and end up blaming ourselves in the process. In this powerful and insightful episode, we take a deeper look at what’s really going on beneath the surface. Joining the conversation is Dr. Janette Edwards, Christian Licensed Clinical Social Worker, who brings a rich clinical and spiritual perspective to the science behind discipline. Together, we explore the psychological and emotional factors that affect follow-through, motivation, and long-term change. Dr. Edwards breaks down how our brains, past experiences, and even stress responses play a role in why discipline can feel so difficult. But this episode goes beyond productivity hacks and willpower. Dr. Edwards also speaks to the importance of grace, forgiveness, and understanding our shared human frailty. If you’ve ever been hard on yourself — or others — for falling short, this conversation offers a refreshing and compassionate perspective on growth, healing, and extending the same patience to others that we so desperately need ourselves. This episode is for anyone who: starts strong but struggles to stay consistent; feels frustrated with their lack of follow-through; wants a healthier, more compassionate view of discipline; is learning how to give themselves — and others — grace. Tune in for a conversation that blends science, self-awareness, and spirit.
