    The Path to Purposeful Living with Gabrielle Flowers-Rader

    Growing up in Indianapolis, Indiana, Gabrielle had big dreams of how her life would go. From yelling “Aggie Pride” at North Carolina A&T to pursuing acting in the Big Apple, what she thought she wanted, never came to fruition. God had other plans for her.  When life got difficult, Gabrielle took to YouTube as her creative outlet, sharing her natural hair journey as a hobby. Safe to say, the rest is history. Today, Gabrielle is a proud graduate of Tennessee State University. She and her family are behind the name GabeBabe TV, a YouTube channel documenting the details of their life. With over 500K subscribers, Gabrielle shares the importance of keeping the family integrity and the impact her channel has had on their community, as well as the community’s impact on them.

    Courage in the Deep End with Conrad Cooper

    Born in Germany to military parents, restlessness was something Conrad Cooper was born into. He inherited that same spirit of traveling the world, wandering from city to city, and letting the waves of life direct him. But it wasn’t until one day his niece was getting swimming lessons in his backyard that everything changed. Now, 28 years later, Conrad is teaching 2nd generation students at his swim school, Swim to Me, changing how adults and children feel about the water and providing a safe space for them to feel confident in their skills. He continues to help break generational barriers of fear and is creating a new legacy of swimmers.

    The 1955 Cannon Street All Stars with John Rivers

    John Rivers is a former member of the 1955 Cannon Street All Stars Baseball Team. A team that was denied the opportunity to play in the Little League World Series because of segregation.  This powerful story is finally getting the recognition it deserves as Mr. Rivers shares the impact of the oppressive Jim Crow laws during a time when he and his teammates had nothing but a burning desire to play ball. Rivers graduated in 1965 from Hampton Institute with a degree in Art and went on to Columbia University Graduate School of Architecture for one year from 1968 to 1969. He became a licensed architect in 1990; a profession that even today out of the over 100,000 architects nationally, only approximately 2,500 are African American.
