The Discussion Room Ms. Reid

What do you do when the protection you need, puts your loved ones at risk? 

How do you address the patterns that produce people prepared to spend their lives in a cell when they don't belong there? 

Do you know how to comfort a child who loses their father days before father's day when you can't process the world losing a beautiful soul?

Are you finding joy in the same place you find your answers?

Can you give grace to people who didn't know they had anything to heal from?

Ms. Reid shares more than an hour with co-founder and CEO of Health in Her Hue Ashlee Wisdom. Ashlee shares what made her feel connected to the early content Ms. Reid wrote on DaaamnDaddy. How growing up in the church has helped shape who she is today. The lineage of persevering and pioneering women she comes from. And what it means to have a father and still feel you’ve missed out on the Daddy’s Girl experience. She shares what steps she's taking to make sure she doesn't get lost in the sauce of capitalism while growing her business. Explaining to her immigrant family that she set aside plans of being a doctor to work in public health, which has now grown into a health tech start-up, Ashlee continues to blaze her own path.
