On this week's episode of The 1 Girl Revolution Podcast, we welcome Melissa Jones — educator, speaker, and founder of Girls Positivity Club, a movement empowering girls to build confidence, self-worth, and leadership skills through connection, mentorship, and positivity. Melissa's story — and the inspiration behind Girls Positivity Club — began with her own experiences as a young girl struggling to find confidence and belonging. Those early challenges came full circle years later as a teacher, when she saw so many of her students facing the very same struggles. She knew something had to change — so she started Girls Positivity Club to create safe, empowering spaces where girls could lift one another up, find their voices, and realize their own power and potential. What began as a small after-school club has now grown into a movement — reaching schools and communities across the country and inspiring a generation of confident, compassionate young women. Melissa's work is rooted in one simple but transformative belief: when girls believe in themselves, they can change the world. This episode is part of our Every Woman, Every Girl campaign — celebrating the truth that every woman and every girl has power, purpose, and a story worth telling. And Melissa's mission and story beautifully embodies that message. In this episode, you'll hear: ✨ How Melissa's own life experience and experiences as an educator inspired her to start Girls Positivity Club; ✨ The challenges girls face today — and how community and mentorship can change everything; ✨ Why confidence, self-talk, and belonging are essential for every girl's development; ✨ The ripple effect of empowering girls — at home, in school, and in the world; ✨ How teachers, parents, and mentors can help girls rise and lead with confidence; ✨ And so much more!

Even before Misty Copeland became the first Black woman to be named a principal dancer at the illustrious American Ballet Theatre, she electrified the world of ballet. A prodigy who didn't start dancing until she was 13, she grew up in a transient and often chaotic home. But after she was discovered in a Boys & Girls Club in Los Angeles by a ballet teacher who wanted to expose more kids to the art form, she quickly shot into the national spotlight. As a teen, she studied at the prestigious San Francisco Ballet School and American Ballet Theatre's Summer Intensive. She joined American Ballet Theatre in 2000 and was promoted to principal just five years later, becoming the first Black woman ever to earn the title in the company's 75-year history. Talking Volumes: Misty Copeland Copeland stepped away from the stage in 2020, after an injury and then the pandemic forced a pause. She officially retires this October, but as she told Kerri Miller at Talking Volumes in September, she's eager to enter the next chapter of her life where she can focus on giving back.“Bunheads,” her book series for young dancers, is just one example. At Talking Volumes, a warm and playful Copeland talked about her love of ballet, how dance transformed her life and what comes next. Musical guests for this special Sunday matinee Talking Volumes were Aby Wolf and Eric Mayson.

Let's talk about the elephant on the reformer: has Pilates turned into a Mean Girls club? In this episode, the viral TikTok trend #MeanGirlsPilates (yes, you're thinking of the right movie) shows us that the fitness world is buzzing with Barbie-pink sets, sharp side-eyes, and performative “you can't sit with us” energy. In this episode, we react in real time to the trend, calling out toxic studio culture, exclusion masked as empowerment, and the ways performative wellness can make movement feel like a members-only club. But don't worry, it's not all doomscrolling. We bring it back to what matters: showing up for yourself, building true community, and remembering that movement should be a celebration of your strength, not a performance. If you've ever walked into a workout and wondered if you belonged, this one's for you. Some key takeaways from this episode include: Being powerful means showing up as you are - even if you're not wearing the matching set. Exclusive vibes don't build strength. Community does. If your workout makes you feel small, it's time to find a new room.

Bun B makes it official as co-host of Unglossy, and we kick things off with a legend: Buffalo Bills icon and Pro Football Hall of Famer, Andre Reed. From a small-town kid in Allentown, Pennsylvania to four straight Super Bowl appearances and a gold jacket in Canton, Reed's story is one of grit, growth, and giving back.In this first part of our two-part conversation, Andre takes us through the real playbook behind his success—relationships, mentorship, and showing up when nobody's watching. He reflects on the wisdom of his Hall of Fame coach Marv Levy (who just turned 100), weighs in on Micah Parsons' contract standoff and the high-stakes “game within the game” of NFL negotiations, and breaks down how rule changes like the kickoff shift and the tush push have reshaped football forever.We dive into what it was like lining up against Deion Sanders, Rod Woodson, and Darrell Green, the brutal six-week training camps of the '80s, and the difference between recovering from injuries then versus now. Beyond the field, Andre shares the roots of his purpose—his years as a Boys & Girls Club kid, the founding of the Andre Reed Foundation, and the legacy he's building with a park, a street, and a stadium all carrying his name back home.Four straight Super Bowls, seven Pro Bowls, and zero regrets—because whether or not the scoreboard went his way, the world was watching.
