In this conversation, Laura welcomes Dr. Lakila Bowden to explore the transformative practice of self-celebration and the role it plays in helping Black women reclaim agency, joy, and permission to lead from a place of fullness. Drawing from key concepts in her book, The Sho'Nuff Principle, Lakila lays out a liberatory framework for centering ourselves without guilt, raising our expectations, and giving ourselves the recognition we often withhold. Laura and Lakila unpack the guilt, shame, and cultural conditioning that often arise when Black women center themselves, and what it looks like to begin shifting that mindset with compassion. Additionally, Lakila explains why self-celebration is not "extra," but essential. She explores the emotional and psychological roots of celebration, encouraging Black women to "brag more," and teaching how celebration functions as a mirror, an amplifier, and a motivator. Whether you've avoided attention, minimized your accomplishments, or struggled with self-recognition, Lakila offers accessible starting points to begin turning up your self- celebration.   About Dr. Lakila Dr. Lakila Bowden is the charismatic voice high-achieving women didn't know they were missing.

Sho, Genge!Welcome back to another episode of ASIAS, with your girl, Sis G.U!On this episode, I am joined by my dear friends and fellow podcasters, Zama Mkhize & Lee Ndlovu.One of the blessings we often overlook is the ability to get through a calendar year. Often times, we downplay the blessings that appear small but are critically important. In that essence, to reflect is to observe the great moments and the lessons that we've endured, for the specific intention to build on the growth that we've obtained. To restore a greater resolve and endurance for the new year that awaits us.In this conversation; we open the platform to get candid about the year that was. The beautiful aspect about this episode is how unique our experiences are, yet we converge into a space of acceptance and reassurance. Lifting each other up for the efforts we were able to achieve, over the year.Here's to celebrating a year of growth. A year of learning & another year of getting closer to where we need to be.

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Come gather around the yule log and listen to some holiday tales: one with a big dose of colonialism (boo) before our favorite sad bisexual Victorian boy (yay!), Hans Christian Andersen brings the mood up for a change. Abbie tells a Mexican Christmas story about the poinsettia, or as we shall call it henceforth, cuetlaxōchitl (kwet-lah-SHO-shee-tl). Kelsey closes out 2025 with HCA's new year's tale, The Twelve Who Came by Mail, followed by The Snail and the Rosebush as a reminder to all of us to keep blooming and pay those who refuse no mind. Happy Holidays and see you next year!

Niall qualified as a doctor from Trinity College, Dublin in 1993. He trained as a surgeon in Belfast and received his FRCSI in 1997. He was a trainee in cardio-thoracic surgery working as an SHO in the Royal Victoria Hospital, Belfast before returning to Dublin where he worked as a registrar in the National Cardiac Surgery Unit in the Mater Hospital and Our Lady's Children's Hospital, Crumlin.He subsequently retrained as an airline pilot with Aer Lingus in 1999 and combined aviation with medicine by working as an Accident & Emergency doctor for six years before focusing fully on aviation. After operating as a co-pilot on both the European and Trans-Atlantic fleets, he qualified as a captain in 2010. He is currently operating out of their Manchester base on the Airbus A330 Trans-Atlantic fleet. In 2011, Niall formed Frameworkhealth Ltd, a company providing aviation-style safety training modified specifically for healthcare which draws on his thirty-five years of experience between both industries. The company has since evolved into Framework Safety Group Ltd. This project aims to share aviation's Safety Management System blended with Human Factors and Evolutionary Psychology with healthcare and other industries in order to address the huge issue of Adverse Events, usually caused by systemic faults but often blamed on the last individual to have touched the ball. Niall aims to encourage industries, especially healthcare to adopt a Just Culture, embed a systemic Human Factors approach and empower staff, patients and their families to speak up as part of the crew. His approach is based on the premise that technology and society have evolved faster in the last century than the human brain can accommodate so we need to adapt to account for this in order to reduce the number of adverse events. He has spoken at many conferences locally, nationally and internationally on the topic.Niall has contributed articles both to specialist journals and national newspapers such as The Irish Times. He has also given interviews for national television including RTE TV News and Virgin Media and has been interviewed several times on BBC Radio. In 2016, Niall was appointed an Expert Advisor to the Northern Ireland Executive's Dept of Health following a well received TEDx talk in Stormont's Great Hall.Niall cycled at national level for thirteen years and at pro-am international level for several years in the early 90s and was a member of Northern Ireland's Commonwealth Games panel. He subsequently worked as Medical Officer for both the Federation of Irish Cyclists (now Cycling Ireland) and the Ulster Cycling Federation. He also worked as a Race Doctor at international level for six years.In 2023, Niall had his first book, ‘Oops! Why Things Go Wrong' published which explored the increasingly topical issue of error across industry and society generally and most importantly, how to address it. The book is already in it's second print run after a higher than anticipated demand.The success of the book has led to many invitations from outside healthcare, hence Frameworkhealth's evolution into Framework Safety Group Ltd in recognition of this broadening scope.

This week, Shat The Movies enters the world of Harlem kung fu, Motown soundtracks, and glowing fists with 1985's The Last Dragon. Commissioned by listener Daylen, this mashup of martial arts flicks and music videos introduced audiences to Bruce Leroy, the Shogun of Harlem and one of the wildest cult classics of the '80s. But does its mix of camp and kung fu still shine today, or is it just a guilty pleasure best left in the VHS era? Gene and Big D debate whether Taimak was an underrated action star or just a wooden lead propped up by Vanity's charisma.  The Shat Crew relives Sho'nuff's scene-stealing swagger, the bizarre Eddie Arkadian subplot and a soundtrack so strong it sometimes overshadows the movie itself. Along the way, Dick and Gene marvel at the glowing special effects, question if Leroy's innocence makes him endearing or frustrating and admit that this might be the most “1985” movie ever made. Is The Last Dragon a true martial arts masterpiece with soul or just Motown's strangest experiment? Who's the master? Sho'nuff!

Today we put the “Sho” in the Russell Moore Show with Sho Baraka, Christianity Today's director of the Big Tent Initiative. Five years after the murder of George Floyd, many wondered if the United States—and the church—was headed toward lasting change. Talk of a “racial reckoning” filled headlines, pulpits, and boardrooms. But where do things stand now, in 2025? Sho joins Russell to reflect on the promises and disappointments of the past half-decade. The child of a Black Panther, Sho shares thoughts about race and reconciliation but also the deeper struggles of spiritual disillusionment, even in his own life. Sho speaks candidly about his own journey through spiritual dryness over the last 5-7 years as he navigated attitudes of cynicism which gave way to a time of terrible decisions that left his life in freefall. He and Russell explore what repentance and renewal can look like—not only for individuals, but for communities and institutions that have lost their way. Together, they discuss why conversations about racial justice often stall, how and why multi-ethnic churches struggle, and how Moses is an example of endurance in radically changing a broken institution. Plus: hear which book of the Bible Sho would take with him to a desert island that no other guest has chosen before. This is a thoughtful, vulnerable conversation about failure, repentance, and the possibility of restoration—for leaders, for churches, and for the witness of the gospel. — Keep up with Russell: Sign up for the weekly newsletter where Russell shares thoughtful takes on big questions, offers a Christian perspective on life, and recommends books and music he's enjoying.
