Season 1 finale of Treasure Hunters Podcast, you knew we had to go out with a bang. My girl, my cosmic soul twin Madi Murphy, thhheee Cosmic Consultant joins us this to close out this season of stellar guests. Madi hosts and holds space through her community and weekly podcast, The Cosmic Rx. In those spaces she breaks down the stars and gives practical tools to work with cosmic energy. We talk about our parallel journey from major turning points, in our late 20's to early 30's - and how we have powered through, learned important lessons, and reclaimed authenticity!

Back from our mini spring break :) - I am joined by the beautiful, lovely, chill, creative director for TLB (The Lip Bar) - Rosco Spears. She drops many gems around grounding, connecting with nature, and being in flow in your life. Having experienced many beautiful and swift life changes in the pandemic, she really speaks to how she's pivoted as a creative, new wife, and Mom. Also featured on this episode, is her new baby girl, Noa.

First of many episodes where I invite an amazing family member to join the fray. My cousin, Jessica McKay, is this weeks guest and we talk about how her life long passion for teaching and education has taken her on this beautiful journey into becoming a children's book author. We talk about the black women educators that have shaped both of us, and how motherhood became the window to her passion project. Her first book "Always with You, Always with Me" - a beautiful ode to working Moms, co-written with Kelly Rowland, is available April 2022.

This week's guest is Dara Hurst, co-founder of Cast Iron Communication, is a mastermind in restaurant and food curation with the very unique pathway to this industry. She talks about how she evolved from her early days in NYC to how she continued on her journey when life took her to Australia, and back again. Listen this week as we chat all things culinary, travel, and what I looks like to be in flow, on your own timeline.

In this weeks episode, I speak with Mathieu Miranda, a dear friend who wears many hats. Actor, Writer, Producer, Makeup Artist, but most importantly dearest inspirational friend. Listen as they share about growing up with their iconic grandfather, Diddy and how they went on the most beautiful journey of becoming and connecting with identity of self. A truly touching conversation.

This week I connect with the brilliant, wickedly humorous, and gorgeous soul Natasha Nicholes. As the founder of #WeSowWeGrow, a Chicago based community garden and nonprofit organization, she is committed to teaching people, families, and communities how to come together through farming and agriculture. As a Black woman who's passionate about urban homesteading, agriculture, travel, and education, everything she does is an act of defying expectations. With that in mind, she's dedicated her life and career to adding a much-needed voice to conversations about issues in each of those industries as a leader, speaker, and writer. On her blog, Houseful of Nicholes, she talks about it all, while also documenting my family's domestic and international travel adventures. We also talk about how experiencing grief, processing that grief, and finding room for joy IS the human experience and ultimate expression of love. It also happens to be how we eventually connected in the Twitter streets; through a mutual respect and adoration of a certain larger than life actor, activist, and awesome human.

This weeks guest is Tiffany Piñero is a fashion forward home and fashion stylist based in the New York Metropolitan Area. She talks to us about the love of fashion sown into her from a young age by her fabulous Grandmother, the importance of foundation at F.I.T., and making the LEAP to full time stylist and the fashionista BFF we alll deserve!

This week I get to talk with Ashleigh Marie Brown, founder of Claire Fertility. She shares her journey from storyteller and writer to helping people rewrite their own family stories in the tech space. She's the coolest.

This week we chat with my good sis Michanda Myles, plus sized model, try athlete, woman of faith, host of the Tri Beginners Luck Podcast, and trailblazing fellow seeker. She shares all the ways she shines and brings light to every little thing she does! A true walking example of what mind over matter looks like, and what can happen when you try beginners luck.
