    As Juneteenth approaches, let’s pause to celebrate black excellence! Fittingly, for this episode and my Juneteenth episode I have the pleasure of chatting with Executive Producer, Jazmine Henley-Brown!

    "OCD was the worst thing to happen to me." Feat. 3x TEDx speaker, Shaun Flores

    WARNING: This episode discusses several triggering themes such as rape and suicide. Shaun Flores is a former high fashion model whose world changed when he began experiencing repetitive unwanted thoughts, alongside months of depression, anxiety and suicidal ideation. That period led to a surprising diagnosis of OCD. Now Shaun Flores is a 3x TEDx speaker, a mental health and OCD advocate with the International OCD Foundation. Today we talk about OCD and mental health matters co-existing with grief, and the intricacies of treatments like psychodynamic versus cognitive-behavioral therapy for OCD. This is the perfect conversation to wedge between Mental Health Awareness month and shifting our attention to black men; black fathers and sons.  While he says that OCD was the worse thing that ever happened to him, now Shaun is determined to be "the worst thing to happen to OCD". You can find and follow Shaun on Instagram and across social media @theshaunflores.  Does your grief put you at risk for a health breakdown?

    Celebrity Hairstylist Shirley Gordon is Living Out Loud After Loss, Pt. 1

    I am truly in the company of a legend on this episode–the legendary celebrity hair stylist, Shirley Gordon! I’d reached out to Shirley to continue my series of conversations for the "Get You Outta My Hair" campaign collaboration with stylists. Together, we are using the intimate stylist/client relationship to convey the relief that comes with expression of feelings and emotions to a confidant, and to encourage grief support. This conversation with Shirley is timely in so many ways–May is mental health awareness month, and May marks one year since Shirley lost her sister and brother-in-law in a very public car accident here in the DMV area, made national when it was amplified on the Real Housewives of Potomac. This is a relatable and victorious story for her community and my listeners. You can find and follow Shirley on Instagram @shirleyghautehair.  Does your grief put you at risk for a health breakdown?

    FOX45 BMore Lifestyle’s “Lady T” Part 2: From behind the desk, to on-camera and on stage!

    In part 2 of my conversation with Lady T, she tells us how she finally brings the charm to the Charm City and surrounding areas on FOX45’s BMORE Lifestyle segments, "Spillin' The Tea w/Lady T" and "Lemme Tell You”. She tells us how she pitched herself to the powers that be and moved from behind the assignment desk to in front of the camera. And she’s just getting started! We’ll also hear how she credits her mom for being the force that catapulted her success even as she deals with losing her; Lady T gets personal about losing her #1 fan--and the conflicted feelings of her greatest successes without her mom here to cheer them on. This is a beautiful story as Mother’s Day approaches. You can find and follow Lady T on Instagram @myfairladyt and on her website at myfairladyt.net. And watch the visuals of our full conversation--now available on my YouTube channel!
