The Speak Your Mind Podcast Rhyana Ebanks-Babb

In this episode I am joined by guests Molinda, Bosede, Lucy and Terri, to explore the profound journey through the diverse realms of self-care, in honoring Self-Care Awareness Month in the process.

During this episode about The Power of self Care, we are diving deep into the mosaic of self-care, where we discuss exploring its many facets: intellectual, physical, cultural, sexual, mental, emotional, social, and financial that can support you to build and sustain a fulfilled life.

In this episode I am joined by guests Lordia, Natrel Mystic and Niya to discuss the power of self teaching.

They will be sharing stories on how they have acquired new skills to pursue their passions, how discovering the limitless opportunities that arise when you take control of their own learning journey, unlocking their true potential, defying conventional wisdom.

Learning is no longer confined to the four walls of a classroom, with the help of technology, we have access to a wealth of information at our fingertips.

- Niya M K Davis
Niya is an eclectic, intuitive, practitioner and creative soul, who's daily ambition is to be 'cember'. To be" cember", is to "choose to see the brighter side of life". "ASHE" is a Yoruba word that loosely translates to "IT IS SO"


Through art, written and spoken word her desire is to be a bridge between the gaps that appear to separate us. Be they generationally, culturally, geographically and all the other labels designed to create pockets of separation the goal is to honour individuality within community and in doing so, be of service to those ready to allow their uniqueness to become their strength, ready to experience what truly bringing all aspects of self into a state of balance, those who desire to be the true magician and commander of their personal power and develop a personal approach that grows with them organically and not according to a dictated pathway or structure.

- Natrel Mystic
After struggling with large amount of debt and depression, I had to find a way to release the creative side of myself, through dance, writing, making stuff, budgeting and being a part of WR Sisterhood. Trusting my decision making, not being so hard on myself and allowing myself time to heal from my PTSD.

I've been called a functionally depressed, which means I do everything to distract myself from my thoughts and neglect my self care. This includes poor hygiene, bad eating habits and not wanting to get out of bed, although I'm also sleep deprived, this has caused bad skin, alopecia and hormonal imbalances.

In this episode, I am joined by guests Promise and Naomi to explore the power of self discovery and what it means to them, how certain life events can lead you to a path of self discovery and what impact these changes have on us. In a world that's constantly changing and evolving, it's easy to lose sight of who we are and what we stand for.Self-discovery allows us to reconnect with ourselves and gain a deeper understanding of our values, beliefs, and passions. By taking the time to reflect on our experiences and emotions, we can identify patterns and behaviours that may be holding us back and make positive changes in our lives.


We delve into a discussion about what blocks some of us from embarking on a true and authentic journey to our breakthroughs and share some personal stories...this is an interesting show to say the least!
