    Sam Ridley III — The Complete Unedited Interview (Ask Nyomi: Bridging the Gap)

    This is the full conversation. Before the series finale aired, Nyomi Banks  sat down with comedian, Air Force veteran and  mental health advocate Sam Ridley III for one  of the most honest interviews ever recorded  on this platform. Nothing cut. Nothing edited.  Every word. This is the interview that became the  heartbeat of our series finale — Laughing  Through It. But what you hear in this full  version goes deeper and wider than what aired  on the live show. IN THIS COMPLETE INTERVIEW: - How Sam and Nyomi first met at an AVN    weekend comedy show — and how they only    saw each other one way until they looked    closer - Sam's 20 years in the United States    Air Force — and how military culture    shaped how he processed pain - The car accident that left him with years    of unprocessed trauma he could not name - His military brother Isaac — the first    person Sam told when he found out he was    going to be a father — who later died by    suicide - The breakdown at Universal Studios on a    water ride — crying about a car accident    from years before — his family forming a    circle saying "we got him" — and the joke    that came out of it - How therapy saved his marriage when it    was almost over - What healing actually looks like — not    the hashtag version. The real version. - Why Sam deliberately added Black men's    mental health to his comedy — and what    he needs Black men to hear - Laughter as purpose: "Come to a show    when you are having a hard time getting    to the laughter. I promise you are    leaving with something." - Maverick — the little boy fighting    neuroblastoma that Sam has been raising    awareness for throughout his national tour This interview is raw, real, funny, heavy  and ultimately full of hope. It is everything  a conversation about healing should be.

    Laughing Through It: Mental Health, Stigma & the Healing Power of Comedy (LIVE Series Finale)

    We made it. The series finale of Loved, Lost  & Reclaimed. We closed out Mental Health Awareness Month  the way healing actually feels when you have  made it to the other side — with laughter.  Real, hard-earned, honest laughter. In this episode Nyomi Banks, Dogg Pound Mike  Mike and Dr. Will Washington are joined LIVE  by comedian, United States Air Force veteran  and mental health advocate Sam Ridley III  for the most powerful finale we have ever  produced. We played key clips from Nyomi's exclusive  pre-recorded interview with Sam — and reacted  to them live as a full panel in real time.  What unfolded was television. IN THIS EPISODE: - Sam reveals that his military brother Isaac    — the first person he told when he found    out he was having a son — died by suicide.    And how that changed everything for him. - The moment Sam broke down at Universal    Studios on a water ride — and his family    formed a circle around him and said    "we got him" - Why Sam deliberately added Black men's    mental health to his comedy — and what    he wants Black men to know - Mike Mike on the simple power of just    talking to another brother - Dr. Will's final clinical note for the    series: "Be kind to yourself and heal    always" - Nyomi's full series close — reading from    the letter that started it all CLOSING WORDS from the letter that became  our heartbeat this month: "Even with stones that are put in your way —  you can still build something beautiful. Keep growing, pretty flower."

    Red Flags & Rose Colored Glasses: Why We Ignore What We Already Know

    You saw the flag. You felt it in your body.  And you stayed anyway. In Week 2 of Loved, Lost & Reclaimed, Nyomi Banks,  Dogg Pound Mike Mike and Dr. Will Washington get  real about the role WE play in our own heartbreak.  Not to shame — but to set us free. This episode digs into the letter that has been  the heartbeat of this month — specifically the  moment our letter writer looked in the mirror and  owned her part. "I too preferred to convince and  lie to myself, rationalizing all the red flags away." IN THIS EPISODE: - What is love bombing — and why does it work on    even the most emotionally intelligent people? - Future faking: why people paint pictures of a    future they never intend to deliver - Cognitive dissonance — why smart people stay in    situations they know are not good for them - The difference between self-accountability    and self-blame - "Healthy demands an unhealthy psyche simply    cannot cater to" — unpacking one of the most    powerful lines from the letter - A listener shares: "I stayed because at least    I knew his poison" - The Pattern Breaker: 3 questions to protect    your future CLOSING WISDOM: - Nyomi: "Love bombing is not love. It is a down    payment on a debt you will eventually be asked    to pay." - Dr. Will: "Be kind to yourself and heal always." - Mike Mike: "Honesty, trust, communication —    nothing starts perfect but love can work out    when those things are there."

    When Love Lies: Betrayal, Secrets & Your Mental Health

    What happens to your mental health when the person you  loved was never fully honest about who they really were? We kick off Mental Health Awareness Month with Week 1  of LOVED, LOST & RECLAIMED — and we are starting with  the truth. This episode is built around a real letter sent to  Nyomi by a listener who trusted her with one of the  most honest accounts of love, betrayal and healing she  has ever received. Together with co-host Dogg Pound  Mike Mike and health psychologist Dr. Will Washington  of Washington Wellness Institute, Nyomi unpacks what  it means to love someone who was hiding who they  really were — and what that does to your mind, your  body and your sense of self. IN THIS EPISODE: - What is betrayal trauma — and why is it different    from regular heartbreak? - The difference between understanding why someone    hurt you and accepting it - Why your body knew the truth before your mind    was ready to hear it - What an unhealthy psyche simply cannot give you —    no matter how reasonably you ask - Mike Mike's real talk on truth, trust and self-love - Dr. Will's framework: "What do I need today    to be who I am?"
