    From Homeless to Hopeful w/ Dom Yanas | Tanji Patton's Goodtaste for the Soul e71

    About our episode on homelessness—did you hear it? A few weeks ago on this podcast, I shared the story of a remarkable woman who connects with people experiencing homelessness in a way I hadn’t seen before. She has this rare ability to look past what’s on the surface and truly see the person underneath. Instead of judging, she meets people with dignity and presence. That conversation stayed with me and led me to reach out to another voice doing similar work at Communities Under the Bridge in the Alamo City. He once experienced homelessness himself, actually lived in a shelter, and came out of it with a clear sense of purpose and a unique understanding of the problem. His perspective is both honest and challenging: homelessness may not be something we fully “solve,” but meaningful change is still possible—depending on how we choose to show up, respond, and engage with those living it every day.   Perhaps, there’s something here we can all embrace! 📺 LIKE & SUBSCRIBE for delicious new videos every week! https://www.youtube.com/@GoodTastewithTanji?sub_confirmation=1 🍽️ Watch full clips and featured recipes from Goodtaste with Tanji: https://www.goodtaste.tv/recipes/ 📧 Sign up for our weekly newsletter!

    A Post on Facebook Saved Her Life! | Goodtaste for the Soul e68

    It started like so many things do these days—with a scroll. Just another post in a crowded feed. Easy to pass by. Easy to forget. But this one stopped her. A girl was in desperate need of a kidney.  A family waiting, hoping, praying that someone—anyone—would step forward. And in a moment most of us would hesitate… she didn’t. She said yes. Today, we’re talking to brave woman who turned compassion into action and the girl who received that beautiful gift. This is a story about sacrifice… about faith… and about the extraordinary power of an ordinary person choosing to do something extraordinary. 📺 LIKE & SUBSCRIBE for delicious new videos every week! https://www.youtube.com/@GoodTastewithTanji?sub_confirmation=1 🍽️ Watch full clips and featured recipes from Goodtaste with Tanji: https://www.goodtaste.tv/recipes/ 📧 Sign up for our weekly newsletter!

    How to Fight Hair Loss – Dr. Manny Lopez Reveals What Works | Goodtaste for the Soul e65

    Hair loss affects millions of men and women, yet it’s something many people deal with quietly. While it’s often seen as cosmetic, it can impact confidence, identity, and how we show up in the world. Today on Goodtaste for the Soul, we’re talking about the science behind hair loss — what causes it, why it affects both men and women, and the real options available for treatment and regrowth. Joining me is physician Manny Lopez, who has spent years helping patients understand the root causes of hair loss and the medical advancements changing the conversation. From genetics and hormones to stress and health conditions, Dr. Lopez explains what’s really happening beneath the surface — and how you can slow down or maybe reverse the hair loss. 📺 LIKE & SUBSCRIBE for delicious new videos every week! https://www.youtube.com/@GoodTastewithTanji?sub_confirmation=1 🍽️ Watch full clips and featured recipes from Goodtaste with Tanji: https://www.goodtaste.tv/recipes/ 📧 Sign up for our weekly newsletter!

    Escaping Communism w/ Defector Denise Mazal | Tanji Patton's Goodtaste for the Soul e65

    Sometimes the most powerful journeys begin with a choice — a choice that costs you everything you’ve worked for. My guest today knows that feeling well. Denise Mazal grew up behind the Iron Curtain in what was then Czechoslovakia, where freedom was limited and opportunity was tightly controlled. Denise was a talented athlete, a member of the Czech national rowing team, with a real chance to compete in the 1976 Olympic Games in Montreal. But she made a remarkable decision. In pursuit of freedom, Denise walked away from that Olympic dream — and from the country she had always known. Her story feels especially relevant right now. Just this week, several members of Iran’s women’s national soccer team defected during an international tournament, choosing freedom over returning home. Different countries. Different generations. But the same courageous choice. Denise took that risk decades ago. Today she shares what it was like to leave everything behind, the courage it took to start over, and how that decision shaped the rest of her life. 📺 LIKE & SUBSCRIBE for delicious new videos every week! https://www.youtube.com/@GoodTastewithTanji?sub_confirmation=1 🍽️ Watch full clips and featured recipes from Goodtaste with Tanji: https://www.goodtaste.tv/recipes/ 📧 Sign up for our weekly newsletter!
