    Rest Is Resistance

    Every new year, we play the same game, compiling a list of resolutions to be more productive, pushing ourselves to the limit to attain some version of ourselves that will be better than the last. This year, host Tonya Mosley is taking a different approach. Instead of giving more to the world, she plans to give more to myself. And that starts with revisiting this powerful 2022 conversation with Nap Ministry founder Tricia Hersey. Hersey says it’s time we treat our bodies not as hustle machines but as living, divine beings that need rest.

    Deportation Wounds

    In 2020, Truth Be Told producer Isa Mendoza shared her truth about the painful impact her father’s deportation has had on her life. We are revisiting this powerful conversation in light of President-elect Donald Trump’s promise to deport undocumented immigrants who are primarily from Mexico and other South American countries the moment he gets into office. For this episode, we called up Adriana Alejandre, a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) and founder of the Latinx Therapy podcast, who offered advice to Isa and tools we can all use to help those we care about who have and will experience family separation. The episode ends with a powerful conversation between Isa and her father. A heartfelt thank you to Isa for sharing her story with us.  GUESTS: Isa MendozaAdriana Alejandre, licensed marriage and family therapist and founder of Latinx Therapy podcast INSTAGRAM: @latinxtherapyLINKS:deartbt.comInstagram: deartbtTikTok: tonyatbtEmail: tonya@deartbt.com

    You’re OK, I’m Not. Black Men & Therapy

    We’re talking about therapy a lot more than we were when we taped this episode five years ago, but there’s still a lot more to talk about. Black men are still four times more likely to die by suicide than Black women. This week’s episode revisits our powerful 2020 conversation that delves into this question:  Why is therapy so taboo in the black community, especially amongst black men?Poet and writer Prentice Powell kicks off the episode by performing a poem he wrote in 2014 after the death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri.

    The Womb

    As of the reairing of this episode, 13 states in the US have a total abortion ban. 7 states ban abortion at or before 18 weeks' gestation. 21 states ban abortion at some point after 18 weeks.In the weeks before the Supreme Court overturned Roe V. Wade, we sat down to talk about what body autonomy and reproductive health will look like for us in a post-Roe vs. Wade world. The stress of racism and barriers to care–including abortion care–are part of a downward spiral in reproductive justice. Too often, those stressors play out in our wombs as fibroids and cancers. We talk about seeking justice and liberation with our guests.GUESTS:Anoa Changa, journalist and writer of “What’s Next for Roe v. Wade?”Dr. Ashley Davis, Gynecologic Specialist at the Fibroid and Pelvic Wellness Center of GeorgiaOmisade Burney-Scott, healer and host of Black Girl’s Guide to Surviving MenopauseINSTAGRAM: @thewaywithanoa@ashleydavis_md @omisadeburneyscottLINKS:deartbt.comInstagram: deartbtTikTok: tonyatbtEmail: tonya@deartbt.com

    Protection

    How do we raise Black children who feel free? One way, conscious parenting coach Yolanda Williams says, is for caregivers to face their own childhood trauma. Yolanda sat down with host Tonya Mosley in 2022 to offer some actionable tips on how to raise “free-thinking Black children” - and stop the tradition of spanking as a form of discipline.
