Where does one put their traditional faith when exploring other aspects of spirituality? Mik and Jenn sit down with Shana Chivon, energy healer, doula and ordained minister to discuss her unique approach to Jesus centered ministry and explore how spirituality and traditional religion don't have to be mutually exclusive. Is it possible to have a deeper spiritual and cultural experience when we embrace what we feared (out of ignorance) as "other"?Some things we talked about in this episode: This was one of the first books that we read that opened up how we view ourselves and that inner voice.  You can find UNTETHERED SOUL by Michael Singer on Amazon.*Mik and Shana also talked about SPIRIT HACKING by Shaman Durek (Amazon).*Want to check out the Black Spiritualists club on Clubhouse?

Greetings, friends of the pod. The BLR crew is back like we never left. This week on the show we talk to our good good friend the Rev. Shana Chivon about Roe, SCOTUS and how reproductive justice is Black justice. We also bid adieu to noted misogynoirist Kevin Samuels. All this and more, this week on the Brown Liquor Report.

Black Educators Matter

“How can we make the school a staple in this community?" Ms. Chivon Ford Assistant Principal, History Teacher, Dean of Students, Preschool Teacher, Alumni Counselor “[I] have an educational privilege. How can I check it? How do I use it for good?” Chivon Ford was born and raised in Chicago. She was privileged to have Black educators throughout elementary school. She enjoyed school along with her “cousin siblings” finding it fun, an escape from home. She ranked number one in her class at Kenmore High School, where she noticed even then the differences in the quality of her IB education from that of her cousins' regular track within the same building. She planned to go into Law, attending Vanderbilt to be near her cousins at Tennessee State. With little direction and no plan, she majored in Philosophy. From there she started teaching and never turned back. “ I now understand why you have those teachers - 40 year educators, because the work is hard. There has to be passion and love in it.” Chivon has experienced dichotomies in the educational system, from schools in the north and south, urban and affluent, and PWI and HBCU. It's important for Black students to have representation in Black educators and Black administration. A philosopher and self-proclaimed radical, she wonders what can be done to improve the state of Black education and how can we do it on our own.

How we birth is a political statement. Birth trauma is a political issue because it’s a human rights issue. Imagine you’re pregnant and with kids and you’re sending your partner out for food or nappies and wondering if they’re going to be harassed, arrested or shot at? Imagine going to the hospital to birth your baby and being told that your pain isn’t real? That you’re being too dramatic, that your health problems are your own fault. Imagine wondering if you’re even going to make it out of the hospital alive to see your family again? In order to even begin to work on trauma, we need mothers to be alive Black women are three to four times more likely to die in birth than white women. Again, we’re not talking about the third world here. This is current daily life in New York City, and some stats are indicating that for new York, black women are even 12 times more likely to die than white women. This is in the Bronx, where my guests today grew up and are doing lifechanging humanitarian leadership on the ground. Brother and sister goals – the amazing Hawk and Chivona Newsome from Black Lives Matter New York chapter took time out to speak with me. We had a chat in the car while they were on their way back from delivering food to over 200 people. The Bronx is the global epicentre for covid-19. Hawk, Chivona and their team work and work and work so that people can have access to proper food, healthcare, housing and an end to oppression. I could see the see the exhaustion on their faces, and yet there’s a fire in there that can felt from oceans and oceans away. Their parents met at a civil rights rally in the 1960’s, so you can say that they were born into this fight. They have both pledged their lives to bringing justice to this unjust system.

I brought on the show Chivon John who is a wellness coach and the Global Wellness Specialist for the international e-commerce giant, Shopify. What is wellness and why does it pertain to you? Wellness is the state of being in good health. More specifically, well-being is the state of being happy, healthy, or prosperous. This pertains to you because, who wouldn’t want to be happy, healthy, and prosperous!? I know I want to be. The truth is, you are better able to build your vision when you are in a state of wellness physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. You cannot properly build while in an unhealthy state. If you try, the experience is longer, harder, and less enjoyable. I don’t want that for you. Building your vision is supposed to be an experience you love even if it’s hard.  The problem is, a lot of us visionaries struggle with wellness and the pursuit of success living in harmony. The great news is you don’t have to pick one or the other. Chivon gives us a quick breakdown of what I call a visionary wellness program in our discussion.

There are all kinds of approaches to self care - and self care ideas seem to be a dime a dozen. But the topic is no less important for all the hype surrounding it. On this episode, Rosetta has a great conversation with Chivon John, a serious entrepreneur who has discovered from her own struggles that self care is non-negotiable. She’s felt the sting of the lack of self care and has a good deal of advice about how you can avoid the pitfalls that come from not taking care of yourself. You’ll do yourself a tremendous favor by listening. Why do we find it OK to be intentional about business, but not about self care? None of the Happy Black Woman Tribe has a problem getting very specific or intentional when it comes to their business. Business plans, strategy maps, marketing plans - they are things we are diligent about putting in place and working. So why are we so hesitant to be intentional about our self care? Is it laziness? Is it fear? Or is it something more? Chivon John has a ton of great insights about how you can put some self care ideas into practice and see yourself healthier and more profitable as a result. You won’t want to miss this engaging conversation. How are you going to give your best if you aren’t feeling your best? As entrepreneurs, we often forget that our businesses can only be as healthy as we are. That may sound like hyperbole or fluff, but it’s the truth. We need to remember that our businesses most important asset is us - and ensure that we are healthy enough to continue guiding our business to greater levels of success. On this episode, Chivon John tells her story about what the lack of self care brought about in her life and why she had to make a change for the better. Her story will resonate with many of you, so you should take the time to listen, learn, and take action on what she shares. Recording your small wins can help you put things in better perspective. When you’re in the trenches of your business and the daily grind of what it takes to make it successful you can easily fall prey to the discouraging things that happen along the way. Chivon John has discovered a self care idea that enables her to keep her eyes on what is true about her business. It’s a jar that she uses to hold small slips of paper. On those slips are written the small wins she’s achieved at various points along the way as she’s been building her business. Whenever she hits a down time, Chivon opens the jar and reads a few of the notes. It reminds her of the good she’s accomplishing and that the discouraging time she’s in will soon pass. Self care ideas may be as simple as small intentional steps that set up safe boundaries. Intentionality is huge when it comes to self care. You’ve got to see it as an important part of your daily disciplines - or else you will burn the candle of your life at both ends. Chivon John says that it’s the intentional steps of self-protection that matter the most. For example, she sometimes puts her phone in airplane mode just to relieve her mind of the constant barrage of notifications - or the temptation to jump on social media. Other times she chooses to leave her phone at home if she is going out. It’s her way of setting up boundaries for herself that help her keep her mind focused and clear. Find out more self care ideas from Chivon on this episode of Happy Black Woman. Outline of this great episode [0:31] Rosetta’s introduction of her guest Chivon John. [2:27] What’s happened in Chivon’s life and business over the past 6 years. [6:20] How Chivon became so interested in self care ideas. [11:51] The violent level of comparison that happens between women entrepreneurs. [15:56] How can you hit the “reset” button by taking care of yourself in basic ways? [22:21] Why you need to be “all in” for yourself as much as you are for your business. [24:26] How Chivon stays on track with her own self care. [31:24] Chivon’s book recommendation.
