The Oscars is rarely a place where socio-political discourse is welcomed. That being said, there is so much more to “the slap” than a lot of white people know. When it pertains to black pain, it's time for them to listen.   VIDEO: https://youtu.be/4ChJA4-cH0E   ARTICLE: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0895904820984467

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! Whether you're spending the day with your friends, your significant other, or your dog, you've got something to celebrate. I thought I'd take the opportunity, though, to talk about dating. In this episode, my friend Brittney and I talk about personal boundaries, empathy, race relations, and expectations within dating during a pandemic.    WHO EVEN AM I?

I cover a lot in this video, folks. Overall, I’m talking about power, what it means when the power is imbalanced in a heterosexual relationship between black men and black women, and who bears the emotional labor in a romantic relationship within a “post-racial” society. ************************************************************* WHO EVEN AM I?

Ableism is often forgotten within discussions surrounding prejudice and inequality. Let's talk about the kind of ableism that we might witness on a daily basis, as well as how to be more empathetic toward those with disabilities.

Hey, folks! In this episode, I chat with my friend Haggai Simon about ableism, relationships, and the Netflix series "Love On the Spectrum."   Notes: -When I refer to the social hierarchy, I don't mean to imply that black women are incapable of being oppressors.  -I mean to compare male and female autism diagnoses at the beginning of the episode.

In this episode, I briefly cover my response to the ICE whistleblower news, how to advocate for yourself and navigate a biased healthcare system, and questions you should be asking your therapist.

We talk about radical empathy in social justice spaces a lot, and lately, I found myself thinking about what it means for the individual. In this episode, I talk about why some people, or rather, most people, struggle to change.

Hey, folks! I'm bringing on another creative entrepreneur to tackle a wellness topic I've been itching to chat about.

Her book, "I'm Awesome. Here's Why..." helps readers gain self-confidence. In this episode, we talk about her creative journey, the blind spots within the self-help industry & different interpretations of self-care. Find Sara at sarakatherine.com.

Hi,again. Today, I'm talking about the Superwoman Syndrome as it pertains to black women, the notion of black women being strong, the historical connotations, and how it affects our mental health and wellness today. This characterization seems like it's based on a progressive notion, but it's not.   FOLLOW ME: IG | instagram.com/plottwistplease | @plottwistplease Twitter | @PloTwist_Please Wordpress | plottwistplease.wordpress.com   WHERE TO LISTEN: ~Apple Podcasts ~Spotify ~Podbean   SUPPORT: Paypal: chamayamoody@gmail.com

Since July was Minority Mental Health Month, I hosted a panel with a few smart folks about wellness as it pertains to minority communities. We talked about the education system, prison reform, culture, and other areas where one's mental health and wellness might be impacted within their cultural and ethnic community. We get into some heavy subject matter concerning BIPOC experiences and trauma. Check out the Instagram below for more information on the panelists and how they make the world a warmer place for BIPOC.

In this episode, I talk about Kanye West, the discussions surrounding his mental health, bipolar disorder, and the consequences of putting celebrities, particularly men, on pedestals.

In this episode, I talk about Minority Mental Health Month, the unique mental health struggles of black women, my personal mental health journey, and the systems that we need to change in order to support the wellness of black women. ***TW: European Colonization/Slavery, Rape, Mental Illness

Myesha-Tiara McGarner is back! She is an actress, the Artistic Director of Perceptions Theatre, and the host of MT's Corner with Myesha-Tiara. After making her film debut in "12 Years A Slave," she quickly gained traction in the Chicago theatre scene.

Do you remember the day you realized you were black both onstage and offstage? I sure do, and I thought I'd bring a friend along to help tell that story. Meet Myesha, Artistic Director of Perceptions Theatre. Since art often imitates life, she's going to chat with us about her experiences being a black actor, director, content creator, and Artistic Director, as well as how that has shaped her artistic approach. 

How ya feelin', friends? Ready to be anti-racist, I hope! In case you don't know this, I am a black woman. That's a huge part of my identity, and I'd be remiss if I didn't address what black people are experiencing throughout the world right now, as well as what we've endured for hundreds of years. This episode is more of a "stream of consciousness" moment for me to express what I'm feeling and, particularly, what I mean when I say that "silence is violence."

Welcome to the podcast! In this episode, I'm talking with actress, vocalist, dancer, and voiceover artist Alaina Wis about her professional journey from being a Disney Performer to being a thriving boss lady. She gives tips on how to get into the voiceover business and shares her perspective on what it's like to navigate business ownership with the uncertainty of following one's passions.
