Hey lady! This week Terri and Dr. Dom pump up the volume and encourage you to do the same as you listen to the fun and inspiring wisdom from Dr. Arlene Gordon-Hollingsworth, co-founder of the uber popular Gracie's Corner, a show dedicated to showing Black kids that learning is fun and something they can be excited about!Arlene and her husband Javoris were inspired to create the energetic, engaging kids YouTube show during the pandemic. They noticed that while they searched for educational programs for their toddler and infant they also needed a form of edutainment for their eldest daughter Gracelyn, the muse and voice actress for her eponymous show. One day Javoris turned to Arlene and let her know he noticed the lack of representation in those shows and wanted to do something about and thus Gracie's Corner was born! The two parents didn't have a huge team or financial backing to get the show off the ground. They just had a deep belief in their mission and desire to figure it out with the tools at their disposal.The dynamic husband and wife team credit the bulk of their success to keeping a focus on the family and maintaining their authenticity. And, supporters have noticed! They've attracted a loyal fanbase that tune into the show in the billions of views. Yes, you read that right, Gracie's Corner has more than a billion views. Thanks to superstar contributors like Snoop, Big Freedia, Charlie Wilson, and Paul Wall the show keeps a fresh perspective on education and entertainment.So, if you have a little person in your life and looking for ways to turn screen time into enjoyable enrichment time, tune in to this week's episode and find the groove that will keep you and your loved one uplifted and singing along with Gracie! Quote of the Day:"Don't you know that you are special?"– Gracie's Corner  Goal Map Like a Pro WorkbookCultivating H.E.R.

Hey lady! This week Terri and Dr. Dom welcome A'Lelia Bundles, a groundbreaking journalist and author, and the great granddaughter of A'Lelia Walker, the daughter of Madame C.J. Walker. She stops by the podcast to discuss her new book Joy Goddess: A'Lelia Walker and the Harlem Renaissance a riveting telling of her family's storied history.A'Lelia goes in depth about her journey to finding her place in her family's historic legacy while building her own legacy. She found that in digging into the lore of her lineage she had the type of gold that writer's dream of – stories full of innovation, trailblazing, love, lust, tough decisions, death, travel, luxury, joy, and triumph. Who wouldn't want to dive in?The ladies discuss how those stories hold gifts that we, as a collective, can use as we chart a new path through the current chaos. Our path of peaceful resistance centers around one key element – joy.

Whatever you do … don't make the black women mad. That must be Nike's new mission statement, as the world's most recognizable sportswear brand bows to A'ja Wilson and the rest of the “yaas queens.” Jason is baffled by Nike's decision to sideline Caitlin Clark — the WNBA's clear meal ticket — and instead award a signature shoe to Wilson. According to Jason, Nike is signaling to the world that they company would rather lose money than upset the black matriarchy. Steve Kim joins the show to weigh in on the Nike-A'ja Wilson controversy, as well as Pete Rose's possible future induction into the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame. The two also discuss the absurd price tag on watching the NFL in today's streaming era. On average, football fans have to shell out $1,500 just to access all 18 weeks of the 2025 regular season. Is there a solution to this growing problem? After the show, head over to "Jason Whitlock Harmony," where Jason and T.J. Moe unpack the influx of South African refugees entering the United States and the broader implications it may have on the nation.

Comedian and friend of the pod Erica Rhodes drops by the studio. They talk about what goods or services people like Brad Williams should pay more or less for, anime commercials for pharma products, and wonder who's really taking more drugs for mental health in America—men or women.Adam, Jason “Mayhem” Miller, and Erica then break down today's headlines, including statues of black women, Frontier Airlines firing employees after they harass passengers, and Democrats slamming Trump's baby bonus.To wrap up, Craig Rothfeld hops on Zoom to share his wild ride from faking financial statements and getting indicted, to prison and now working as a prison consultant. He chats about how it's shaped his view on justice, tossing in some thoughts on Bill Cosby and, while he can't go there legally, Harvey Weinstein.

There are good people in every demographic — white people, older people, police officers. There are good and bad eggs on both sides. Unfortunately, within the black community, a few bad actors often give the entire group a negative reputation. On today's episode of "Fearless," Jason highlights several recent “bad egg” moments involving prominent black public figures. From Draymond Green's “I'm not an angry black man” rant to Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett's ghetto theatrics and Paul Pierce's anti-marriage stance, celebrity black Americans are doing more harm than good to the culture. Later in the show, Steve Kim joins Jason to discuss Shedeur Sanders' disappointing mini-camp performance, Bill Belichick's very young girlfriend allegedly being banned from UNC football facilities, and Joy Taylor oversharing her dating life on-air. After the show, switch over to the Jason Whitlock Harmony channel with Shemeka Michelle for a deep dive into Kanye West's controversial new song, "Heil Hitler."

Hey lady! Have you ever considered where your beliefs come from and, more importantly, why you hold on to them so dearly? If you're not aware it is not a coincidence that you have certain thoughts programmed into you. In fact, there are studies that certain patterns of belief and trauma can be passed through the generations. Epigenetics, the study of how behaviors and your environment can affect genes, is an area where medical professionals are starting to experience breakthroughs. They're discovering that coupling this study with the study of neuroplasticity, the phenomenon of the brain reorganizing itself to form new neural pathways and adapting to new experiences, is a powerful path to healing.Enter Daria Burke. Daria is a powerhouse of a woman who's career has spanned from award-winning business leader to author. She joins Dr. Dom and Terri this week to discuss her new book, part memoir, part methodology Of My Own Making to share her journey through healing from a rough childhood and traumatic car accident to finding her unique voice and sharing it with others. Daria offers perspective on how using the wisdom from epigenetics and the tools that neuroplasticity offer as roadmap to a healing plan that is authentic to you. Tap in for the tools but also let Daria's story serve as inspiration that life is what you make it! Go ahead and get your beautiful life, sis!Quote of the Day:"We are not defined by our origin stories.

Hey lady! It's strange times filled with a lot of uncertainty but one thing we know for sure is that we will get through all of this with strong community. This week Dr. Dom and Terri discuss some of the factors that got us to reckon with the fact that there is an uprising of people reporting feelings of loneliness and being alone. While those are natural feelings from time to time you can mitigate them long-term with a strong diverse community. We're not talking about people you can post on Instagram, although that can be a part of it, we're talking about the relationships that you intentionally cultivate that fit perfectly with your life. Are you a budding yogi and find it a central part of your self-care practice? There is someone out there with the same interest. Do you crave differing perspectives and rigorous debate about ideology? There's a community out there waiting for you to join them.The truth is while loneliness may be on the rise, there are people out there for you. And, as the world continues to reel from massive changes finding people that get you and care about you will be all the more necessary. Do yourself a favor a tune in to today's episode for practical tools on building your community. Some of these may stretch you or push you or feel edgy, but that is the work. It's putting your authentic self out there so that your people can find you. If you're ready to dig deeper you won't want to miss the opportunity to get Dr. Dom and Terri's precise questions to help you dream up and call in the relationships that will fulfill you.

Join something you genuinely love Real talk: The easiest way to find aligned people is to go where your joy lives.  2. Reconnect with someone from your past  Real talk: Some of the most beautiful friendships are waiting for a simple “hey, I miss you.”  3. Try something new—even if it feels awkward  Real talk: The most aligned people are often waiting just outside your comfort zone.  4. Start something small—but intentional  Real talk: Community doesn't have to be a big production. Start where you are.  5. Be the person who reaches out first Real talk: Waiting on someone to invite you might mean missing out on the connection you need.  6. Build connection into your rhythm  Real talk: If you want community, you have to make room for it.  7. Don't underestimate the power of one  Real talk: You don't need a huge friend group. You need one aligned connection to start your community.  Quote of the Day:"Community is much more than belonging to something. It's about doing something together that makes belonging matter."– Unknown  One of our sponsors for this week is Feeld (like field, but with two E's). Tired of dates that feel like interviews? Same.
