In this week's episode, we're re-airing one of our top episodes with Monique Rodriguez, the founder and CEO of Mielle Organics, an all natural hair care and beauty brand. Monique created Mielle Organics' first product in her kitchen. Now, the brand has products in over 85 countries – and still pursues the same vision it did from when it operated out of Monique's kitchen, with the same values.Monique worked as a registered nurse for almost a decade. She pursued nursing initially to please her mother and secure a financially stable career. As a wife and mother of two girls, it was a big risk to leave her stable career path to pursue her passion. Yet she always had a love of beauty and haircare, and once she saw the engagement of her online community with the products she was creating in the kitchen, she decided to bet on herself and launch her own product, and that's when Mielle Organics was born.In 2021, Monique became the first Black woman to raise a non-controlling nine-figure investment, over $100M, in a deal with Berkshire Partners. In 2023, Monique made history again when Mielle Organics was acquired by Procter & Gamble in an unprecedented acquisition, the largest exit ever for a Black Female beauty founder, in which she will continue to serve as CEO of the company. As part of her deal with P&G, she also established Mielle Cares, the non-profit arm of her company, with a $10M donation that was matched by P&G. In this week's episode we discuss the many business ventures Monique tried that didn't work out, why she decided to pursue her nursing career and the biggest skills she learned there that have propelled her when starting her own business. We also chat about her process of building a passionate community through social media, how that helped her create product market fit for her product, and the steps she took to find a chemist to work on her first batch that ended up selling out. Monique also ends on sharing insights on manifesting success, the exact steps she took to bring her ideas to life, her advice on navigating challenging situations both personally and professionally, and so much more. In this episode, we'll talk to Monique about:* Confronting fears and building self-belief. [04:06]* Strong women in Monique's upbringing. [07:27]* Leaving her comfort zone. [20:09]* High-risk pregnancy experience in 2013. [22:49]* Funding Mielle's early stages. [31:35]* Starting Mielle at home and the initial orders. [35:24]* Driving Mielle Organics' launch success.[36:41]* Leaving nursing job to focus on Mielle. [37:54]* Manifestation steps and vision importance. [40:41]* Bringing in private equity, alignment with Berkshire. [55:31]* Timeline of P&G acquisition. [58:05]* Journaling and gratitude cultivation. [01:00:26]* Business sale impact on Monique's life.

AdeJoké Bakare joins us for a truly special interview at Chishuru, the Michelin-starred Fitzrovia restaurant that has become one of London's most exciting dining destinations. As the UK's only Black female Michelin-starred chef, and only the second in the world, Joké's rise is extraordinary not just for what she has achieved, but for how she got there: without the traditional fine-dining route, without years in elite kitchens, and while building a style of cooking that many people in Britain had never properly encountered before.In this conversation, she takes us through the long road to Chishuru, from growing up in Nigeria and studying biomedical sciences, to moving to the UK in 1999 and spending years with food as a private obsession rather than a full-time profession. She shares stories of selling fish and chips from a cart at university, cooking around church communities, hosting punishing early supper clubs, and eventually taking a chance on a Brixton Market pop-up after winning a competition in 2019. From there, the story only gets wilder: learning on the job, persuading landlords to take her seriously, opening her first proper restaurant, and then winning a Michelin star just five months later.But what makes this interview so rich is the way Joké talks about the food itself: the memories tied to it, the regional Nigerian dishes she felt compelled to preserve, and the resistance she faced from diners who expected one version of West African cooking and found something far more personal, historical and ambitious. She speaks beautifully about introducing guests to dishes they may not know how to approach, translating flavours that do not fit neatly into European ideas of balance, and protecting culinary traditions that risk being lost. The result is a conversation packed with humour, honesty and emotion — a portrait of a chef who has not only changed London dining, but has done it entirely on her own terms.Watch and Subscribe To Our Youtube Videos Here - https://www.youtube.com/@gotofoodOrder Ben's Incredible Book - All You Can Eat - By Clicking Here - https://www.amazon.co.uk/All-You-Can-Eat-British/dp/1805221523Get 2 Months of Blinq For Free - With Code - GOTOBLINQ - https://blinqme.com/Order The Greatest Meat In The Country From HG Walter Here & Have Restaurant Quality Meals From Home - www.hgwalter.com Hosted on Acast.

In Unlearning the Hush: Oral Histories of Black Female Educators in Mississippi in the Civil Rights Era (University of Illinois Press, 2025), Dr. Marlee Bunch shared her research on Black female educators in Mississippi during the Civil Rights era and discussed how their experiences and wisdom continue to inform contemporary teaching practices and diversity initiatives. The conversation explored the importance of preserving and unearthing hidden histories through various forms of cultural expression, while examining the role of educators in creating inclusive learning environments. Marlee's work extends to her teaching philosophy and upcoming projects, including a National Academy of Education postdoc award project that will expand her oral history research to include Black male educators and explore the power of storytelling across generations. Despite significant challenges and powerful opposition, Black female teachers stood at the forefront of advocating for and providing education to Black students. Their dedication not only improved opportunities for Black communities but also influenced changes in U.S. laws and societal expectations. Bunch draws on a rich fund of oral histories to reveal the interior lives of Black female educators who taught before and after desegregation in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. In their own voices, these women detail the hurdles they faced guiding students through Jim Crow laws and Civil Rights-era desegregation. Bunch unearths the personal stories of teaching and activism during a historic time that included the Brown v. Board of Education decision and whites' massive resistance to desegregation. The educators explain the importance of the Black community and Black homes while discussing their part in priming students for success and creating community cohesion. In addition, Bunch looks at the legacies of Black educators and the work still to be done. A section of images and poetry compliments the text. Inspiring and immersive, Unlearning the Hush combines memory with Civil Rights history to document Black women's role in education during a tumultuous time. Bunch is an interdisciplinary educator, scholar, author, and preserver of oral histories dedicated to illuminating untold stories and fostering human-centered, inclusive learning spaces. With over a decade of teaching experience across secondary and post-secondary classrooms, she has consistently championed equitable, rigorous, and reflective education that honors the lived experiences of students and educators alike. A passionate advocate for justice-centered education, Bunch earned her doctoral degree in Education, Policy, Organization, and Leadership with an emphasis in Diversity and Equity from the University of Illinois. She also holds an M.Ed. in Secondary Education from DePaul University, an M.S. in Gifted Education, and an ESL certification — a testament to her commitment to meeting the diverse needs of learners. She is a National Academy of Education/Spencer Postdoctoral Fellow. At the heart of Bunch's work is the belief that history and storytelling hold transformative power. Her research centers on the oral histories of Black female educators in Mississippi who taught during the Civil Rights era (1954–1970), preserving their narratives as both historical record and source of contemporary wisdom. Through this work, she invites reflection on resistance and the enduring importance of educators as community leaders and cultural stewards.Her other publications include The Magnitude of Us (Teachers College Press, 2024), and Leveraging AI for Human-Centered Learning: Culturally Responsive and Social-Emotional Classroom Practice in Grades 6-12, co-authored with Brittany R. Collins (Routledge, 2025). Whether through scholarship, storytelling, or advocacy, Bunch continues to elevate voices too often left at the margins, reminding us that the most meaningful learning happens when we center humanity, history, and hope.

In this engaging segment of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards fields a call from a Black woman in Covington, Kentucky, who offers a refreshing and nuanced perspective on the ongoing debate over a Confederate monument in Brandon, Mississippi. The caller, a longtime listener celebrating a belated birthday shoutout from Clay, dives into the controversy surrounding the 1908 Civil War-era statue located just outside Jackson's city limits in the conservative suburb of Brandon. She firmly advocates for keeping the monument in place, arguing that "no Confederate flag, no Confederate statue, building, monument is not gonna come alive and say 'Hey Black girl, I want you back in slavery.'" Emphasizing its historical value, she notes it's been standing for over 100 years and, while sometimes offensive, deserves respect as part of America's past—people can simply choose to avoid those who embrace such symbols without demanding removal.   The caller shares her recent research on Jefferson Davis, a Kentucky native and Confederate leader, revealing complexities like his adoption of a free Black orphan and allowing free Black soldiers to fight for the Confederacy. She stresses the importance of teaching "all of history, not just the selected parts," warning that erasing the "ugly" aspects makes it easier to repeat mistakes. Drawing parallels to preserved sites like the Berlin Wall, she aligns with Clay's view that judging historical figures solely through modern lenses is unfair, as they were "men of their times" with complicated legacies. Clay praises her viewpoint, critiquing "white savior" attitudes from locals like a Brandon school principal who spoke as if representing all Black students' offense, assuming uniform reactions without input from the community.   This call comes amid heated local discussions, where Brandon residents recently weighed in at a July 8, 2025, board meeting on potentially relocating the statue—perhaps to the Confederate section of the city cemetery—to balance heritage with inclusivity.   Arguments echoed national debates: some see it as a symbol of white power erected decades after the war, while others view removal as disrespecting Southern ancestors and erasing history. Despite the mayor's earlier claim that any move was hypothetical, the meeting highlighted growing pressure for change. Clay uses the exchange to underscore diverse Black opinions, challenging stereotypes and calling for unfiltered dialogue on history's role in progress.   Tune in for more raw conversations, listener calls, and Clay's take on preserving the past without repeating it.

DALLAS (AURN News) — When Erika Howard struggled to find athletic clothing that allowed her to maintain her modesty while coaching and working out, she didn't just layer up and sweat through it — she created her own solution. Howard, a former track, volleyball and basketball coach, launched Two and Nine in 2022, a modest athletic apparel company designed for women who want coverage without sacrificing performance or style. "We were modest women who loved to work out, who loved to play sports and ride bikes and all of that, but we were finding it very difficult to find apparel that we were comfortable in and could do all things in," Howard said. "The Lord gave me a dream and told me to start this business. And I was obedient." The brand specializes in athletic skirts with built-in shorts, featuring functional details like pockets and drawstrings that allow for comfortable movement during various activities. Howard, who coached at Omaha North High School in Nebraska and Barnett Junior High in Texas, said her experiences trying to coach in traditional modest clothing highlighted the market gap. "I either had to pay people to make my clothing more modest or add layers upon layers and be extremely uncomfortable while sweating," Howard said. Since launching on Feb. 22, 2022 — a date Howard notes was significant as "2/22/22" or "Two-sday" — the company has expanded beyond her initial expectations. "I initially thought that it would be for my friends and myself, but little did I know that there were people all over the country that would like my designs," Howard said. "The growth has been exponential. So far, we've shipped to probably 18 different states... and Canada." Howard aims to challenge misconceptions about modest clothing, which she says is often viewed as restrictive or uncomfortable. "I think people think that when you say modest, you're completely covered from head to toe, that it is restricting, that it is uncomfortable," Howard said. "Modesty is for me, it's for the wearer. It's for the person who wants to feel comfortable and does not feel comfortable showing all their body." The entrepreneur emphasizes that modest doesn't mean unstylish. "It doesn't always have to be a black skirt... You can still have a style and be more athletic, or somebody who enjoys athleisure wear," she said. Her company motto — "You can do anything in a skirt" — reflects her vision that modest clothing should be functional and versatile. Howard sees her business filling a crucial need as mainstream athletic wear trends increasingly feature crop tops and form-fitting styles. "Now as I go to the store, everything is a crop top, everything has a stomach out, everything is tight," Howard said. "Maybe I don't want to show every single part of my leg." Two and Nine has expanded beyond athletic wear into modest scrubs and is developing athleisure options and swimwear. To aspiring entrepreneurs, particularly Black women, Howard offers straightforward advice: "Just go for it. You may not know exactly what the next step is, but if you have the encouragement to start the business and you have the idea, just go for it." "Follow your dreams," she added, "because you don't know where God's going to take you once you step out on faith and you do what he's calling you to do." Learn more about your ad choices.

Anne-Marie Duff joined Nuala McGovern to talk about her latest stage role in The Little Foxes at London's Young Vic Theatre.

Anne-Marie discusses playing ruthless characters and the stage roles that place women front and centre.A recent report by the National Council for the Training of Journalists found that 91% of UK journalists come from white ethnic groups. This has increased by 3% since last year. Amid large numbers of job cuts within the sector, what can be done to help keep female black and minority ethnic journalists within the profession?

The National Theatre's production of Ballet Shoes is directed by Katy Rudd and tells the story of the three Fossil sisters, Pauline, Petrova and Posy, who were given their name because they were all “discovered” as babies on the travels of adventurer Great Uncle Matthew and then abandoned to his Great Niece Sylvia, or Garnie, played by Pearl Mackie. Anita was joined by Katy and Pearl to discuss this children's classic.Would you ask your friends to describe you in one word? Comedian Sophie Duker did.

The government has announced that a ban on the private prescriptions of medicines used to delay puberty to young people questioning their gender in the UK, is being made indefinite. They are no longer prescribed on the NHS. Following the recommendations of the Cass review, the only new access to these puberty blocking drugs for young people will be via a clinical trial, due to start in early 2025. Deborah Cohen, former BBC Newsnight health correspondent and Visiting Senior Fellow at LSE Health has been looking into what this trial might look like and the debates around its design and ethics. She joins Nuala McGovern to explain further.The Women Against State Pension Inequality (WASPI) say they are furious at the latest government announcement that they won't be paid compensation. They say they weren't properly informed that their state pension age was rising and therefore weren't able to prepare for retirement. A Parliamentary Ombudsman investigation in March recommended that they be paid compensation, the government says the cost - which it says would be up to £10.5 billion - would not "be fair or proportionate to taxpayers". Nuala speaks to the current Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman, Rebecca Hilsenrath.Before Taylor Swift, there was Kay Swift - the first woman to compose a hit Broadway musical. She also worked alongside George Gershwin on many of his works such as Porgy and Bess – and they had a long affair. But Kay has largely been forgotten by history. A new Radio 3 Drama: Gershwin & Miss Swift, seeks to change that. Nuala is joined by Kay's granddaughter, the author Katharine Weber, and actor Lydia Leonard who plays Kay in the drama.A recent report by the National Council for the Training of Journalists found that 91% of UK journalists come from white ethnic groups.

Sheila Johnson is known as the nation's first black female billionaire. She first rose to prominence as the co-founder of Black Entertainment Television, or BET. Since then, she has become a widely recognized business leader, a hotel mogul, and the co-owner of three professional sports teams. But, Johnson says, her triumphs masked deep trauma and pain that she carried for decades. That included fear and self-doubt, an emotionally abusive 33-year marriage, and a severe depression following her divorce. Johnson joined Diane in April at WAMU's Black Box Theater for a special in-person Diane Rehm Book Club Conversation. They talked about her memoir, “Walk Through Fire.”
