Usually on MProper Mimi when we talk about knowing your triggers it has to do with dealing with trauma. Not this time! For this episode “knowing your triggers” we are referring to those things that make our allergies and/or asthma flare up. I was able to speak with an allergy specialist, Dr. Lakiea Wright to have an important conversation about her journey to becoming a specialist in the field of allergies. Other topics also include Adult onset allergies the importance of knowing our triggers racial disparities when it comes to allergies & asthma diagnosis and what our families and caregivers can do to help ensure children are safe when it comes to these subjects We hope you enjoy this conversation and find it helpful enough to share with others in your circles. Send Mimi Jacks a message to tell us your story of how allergies or asthma have impacted your family!

Have you ever experienced a setback or learned a valuable lesson through trial and error that you wished you could share with others so that they would never have to go through what you have been through? Or sometimes the stories we decide to share with those around us are to connect with them through similar adversities. Our guest this week on MProper Mimi is Stephanie Smith and she and Mimi Jacks talk alot about why we share our stories and why they are important. You also get your fair share of sisterfriends chatting about how the division of Black and white in the US creates a culture that encourages turmoil. We list a few of our fav books and movies in the MProper Suggestions below. Be sure to subscribe to the MProper Mimi YouTube channel to see or listen to us as well.

Have you ever thought about how the software programs or apps we use everyday to make our lives easier take into account diversity and inclusion in who they are made for or even the designers behind the scenes making them for us? Well this has been an MProper thought our host Mimi Jacks thinks about a lot when considering how to increase the number of women of color in Technology on all levels and interactions. Our special guest Shanae Chapman, is the Founder of Nerdy Diva, a small, Black woman-owned business that helps tech start-ups grow and scale into mature businesses with excellent user experience (UX), strategic diversity and inclusion, and investment in their community. You will definitely want to listen and share this conversation as Mimi and Shanae talk about her love for UX design, encountering diverse women in Corporate Technology, how social innovation is integrated with Technology and Diversity, the importance of APIs in sharing information to our communities and so much more. The fact that Nerdy Diva also is involved with angel investing for underrepresented founders blew my mind! And after you hear this MProper Mimi episode I'm sure you will agree that one month alone i snot enough to recognize all the things that women do or are capable of!

Episode 24: Happy Veterans Day! Often round this time of year I'm in #ScorpioSeason mode. There are a lot of birthdays and celebrations in my family including November 11th. I know my grandfather was in the Army, as well as few of my uncles and friends, including those who are still active duty in other branches of military (Can you tell me how many there are?). I never really knew any Black Women Veterans that could tell me about their experience and time in the military. Shoot...I didn't even really understand the renewing or contracts and retention! So as usual, my network of friends and organizations came through and voilà, we have an MPressive MProper Mimi episode on Black Women in the military. So join your host, Mimi Jacks as I sit down with 1st Sergeant Tiffany Eaddy and listen in to us chat about the ups and downs of being in the military, leadership, feelings of accomplishment, and the stigma of being a Black Women in a position of authority. There also is a long history of Black Women in the military and we talked about a couple of those firsts, some being as recent as within the last few years. As we are also coming off of another historic 2020 Presidential election, I also wanted to give voice to other Black Women Veterans to gain a better understanding of what so many go through in the military with their careers, families and internal growth. Women who had to endure sexual harassment, racism, leaving children behind while on tour, disrespect, and slander as well as promotions, traveling abroad, marriage, entrepreneurship, and successfully retiring! Thanks goes out to Keesha Dancy, Natasha Howard, 2nd Lieutenant Yolanda Knight and Staff Sergeant Sofia Olds . You ladies truly blessed me and I hope you all continue to share your stories.

Episode 21: MProper Mimi is joined by some awesome Millennials, a Gen Z and another Gen Xer to discuss I'm Still Here: Black Dignity in a World Made for Whiteness by Austin Channing Brown. Listen in as we talk about our different experiences in school, church and life when it comes to dealing with race...and how we are coping now. Over the weeks that our small multigenerational book club met together, I was surprised to learn from my daughter and cousin how their generations (who I thought did not see color) now perceive some of their childhood experiences. Even as we read through chapters about Austin's experiences, we touched a little upon race and reconciliation in the church, diversity in our public and private schools as well as how we manage to keep reading books with such heavy topics! Drop me a message or voice note after you listen to let me know if you can relate. Did you read the book also? What did you think? I would love to hear from you, Ciao! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mpropermimi/support
