Listeners will also learn practical techniques for managing anxiety and stress, and why creating safe, supportive communities is essential. If you're seeking tools, understanding, or inspiration in your mental health journey, this conversation is for you.About my guest: Using her life experience and learned techniques like custom-tailored tapping meditations, breathing exercises, and holistic thinking, Terise Lang empowers professional women 40+, primarily those of color, who are drained mentally and physically because they take care of everyone and everything else but themselves.Connect with Terise on Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, and on the web at https://teriselangwrites.comKeywords: women's mental health, suicide rates, racial bias, mental health coaching, holistic thinking, custom tailored tapping, meditations, breathing exercises, professional women, women of color, accountability partner, empathy, cyberbullying, online racial attacks, Columbia University study, Boston University study, socioeconomic status, community programs, gaslighting in medical field, loneliness epidemic, sense of community, tribe support, internal anxiety, stress management, box breathing, Lamaze breathing, sound therapy, green noise, brown noise, neurodivergent, hope

The Inattention Economy: How Women of Color Built the Internet (U Minnesota Press, 2026) by Dr. Lisa Nakamura challenges the widespread myth that the internet was born from the labor of a handful of white male entrepreneurs, recovering the uncredited and unpaid contributions of women of color. Focusing on three key inflection points in computing—the microchip era of the 1960s and '70s, the rise of social media in the 2000s, and A.I.-fueled virtual reality in the 2020s—Dr. Nakamura illuminates these women's instrumental roles in building new technologies and making them coherent to users. From the Navajo women who manufactured the first semiconductor circuits in New Mexico to Tila Tequila, the queer Vietnamese American refugee who became the first true internet influencer in the MySpace age, to Black virtual reality creators, Dr. Nakamura highlights how women's gendered and racialized identities have uniquely positioned them to mediate the development and proliferation of new technologies. She exposes how these women have been structurally excluded from racial capitalism's benefits while their labor is considered as exploitable and inexhaustible as that of machines. Confronting this injustice, she focuses our attention on their work, which undergirds and makes possible the platforms ingrained in our daily lives. Arguing for both recognition and material compensation for these women's labor, The Inattention Economy is a powerful counterhistory of Silicon Valley and a persuasive call to imagine a different kind of internet. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

She exposes how these women have been structurally excluded from racial capitalism's benefits while their labor is considered as exploitable and inexhaustible as that of machines. Confronting this injustice, she focuses our attention on their work, which undergirds and makes possible the platforms ingrained in our daily lives. Arguing for both recognition and material compensation for these women's labor, The Inattention Economy is a powerful counterhistory of Silicon Valley and a persuasive call to imagine a different kind of internet. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

From Fear to Friendship: The 30-Year Journey of an Interracial Women's Circle What does it really take for women across race, identity, and experience to move from awkward conversations to real friendship? In this episode, I talk with two people I deeply respect—Julie O'Mara and Dr. Sid Reel—about a women's circle I'm part of  that's been meeting for nearly 30 years. What started as a conference breakout session turned into something far more rare: a space where white women and women of color stayed in relationship through grief, anger, mistakes, growth, and joy. We talk about confidentiality and why it matters. About staying at the table when things get uncomfortable. About what happens when people don't feel alone anymore. And about the difference between talking about race and actually knowing people whose lives are shaped by it. This isn't theory. It's lived experience. And it's a reminder that real connection doesn't come from slogans or training slides—it comes from time, trust, and being willing to keep showing up. We share raw, transformative experiences that took us from initial fear and distrust to deep, meaningful friendships. The episode explores the group's origins, the critical role of confidentiality, and the hard truths they've confronted about race, privilege, and solidarity. You'll learn the challenges and rewards of having tough conversations about race and how these led to profound support and solidarity during life's toughest moments.   Timestamps & Key Segments: 00:00 Introduction and Podcast Overview 01:10 Meet the Guests: Julie O'Mara and Dr. Sid Real 04:45 The Women's Circle: Origins and Purpose 12:38 Confidentiality and Trust Building 20:02 Personal Stories and Experiences 27:54 Challenges and Learnings in DEI 35:50 Standing Up and Women's Circle Support 36:57 Building Comfort and Social Connections 38:26 Shared Experiences and Mutual Support 41:33 Assumptions and Learning Moments 54:00 Starting and Sustaining a Circle 01:01:12 Final Thoughts and Contact Information Guest Bio:Julie O'Mara is coauthor of the free Global Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Benchmarks (GDEIB): Standards for Organizations Around the world along with Alan Richter, PhD, and Nene Molefi.

In this episode, we discuss a recently released white paper titled “Belonging in Utah: Findings from Community Conversations with Women of Color.” The white paper draws from seven focus groups with Women of Color along the Wasatch Front to identify shared and community-specific themes related to their experiences. The findings reveal both interconnected challenges and those unique to specific racial and ethnic communities. The goal of this work is to elevate diverse perspectives and encourage leaders and community members to consider additional insights that foster greater inclusion and belonging throughout the state. Understanding what helps Utah women of color build a sense of belonging shows us not only where the state is progressing, but where meaningful work still needs to be done. In today's episode, we'll break down what belonging looks like, why it matters, and how these insights can guide efforts to make Utah a better place for everyone. Dr. Susan Madsen, an Extension Professor of Leadership at Utah State University and the Founding Director of the Utah Women & Leadership Project and A Bolder Way Forward, is joined by two guests. First, Kolene Anderson, former Associate Director at the Utah Women and Leadership Project. Second, Nadia Cates, former Multicultural Outreach Coordinator at the Utah Women and Leadership Project. Support the show

In this episode, we sit down with the brilliant Anouska Bhattacharya, VP of Programs at YW Boston, for a conversation that somehow ties together the imperialist history of the gin and tonic, the absolute barbarism of mammograms, and the future of equity work in a post-DEI world.Anouska shares her origin story as a "recovering academic" who traded the ivory tower for community organizing, and explains how her neurobiology background helps her understand why systems can, and must, be unlearned. We get into how DEI work is evolving (spoiler: call it civility, call it employee engagement, the work continues), what it means to find joy as fuel for sustainability, and why she's currently tap dancing in her Watertown basement while performing in a burlesque reimagining of the Nutcracker.Plus: ice shipped from Massachusetts to India, dense breasts, and a love story between Pluto and its moon. You know, the usual.

Hey lady! We're grown so we know there's nothing wrong with having a vice or two. But, what happens when that vice becomes an addiction? Analysts estimate that approximately 48.4 million Americans are addicted to something with 9.8% of Americans addicted to drugs and 9.7% of Americans addicted to alcohol. Addiction is a fact of life that many Black women have a relationship with, and many have overcome addiction through treatment, therapy and sometimes medication. But, before they even get there they start with a healthy amount of honesty about where they find themselves with their addiction.The peculiar thing about addiction is that one can find herself there without even realizing it, which is why this week Terri and Dr. Dom pull back the veil of addiction with a personal testimony about reorienting their relationship with addiction and science-backed, evidence based strategies to build healthy long-term relationship with the vice. Terri offers an authentic look at how she became addicted to marijuana and the gentle, self-compassionate methods she incorporated to set reorient her relationship so that when she engages it's from an empowered place and not out of necessity. Lady, contrary to popular belief you can become addicted to weed. And, if you are beginning to question where your relationship with weed lies, tune into today's episode to gain an understanding of the qualities of a healthy relationship with weed and what is veering into addiction. If you're ready to dive deeper into creating healthy habits and systems to support you living your best life, book a consultation with Dr. Dom. The end of the year is the perfect time to set yourself up for success in the new year. And lady, if you feel like you are in crisis please dial 988 for immediate assistance. We love you for real! Quote of the Day:"It always seems impossible until it's done." – Nelson Mandela  Goal Mapping Starter GuideCultivating H.E.R.

Hey lady! We hope you had a wonderful day spent in gratitude yesterday. If you've been around our podcast a while you know that gratitude is something we value, and we value it for good reason. Gratitude is an essential element to calling in the abundance that is your birthright. This week, Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon joins Terri and Dr. Dom to help you get your mind right for increase and overflow in 2026!Darnyelle shares her powerful testimony of how she went from filing to bankruptcy to becoming a millionaire in the span of a year. She didn't allow bankruptcy to defeat her instead she decided to step in the abundance that already has her name on it and let the power of the tongue guide her to success. Lady, we're going to let you know right now that this is an episode you're going to want to save and come back to as Darnyelle offers realistic, faith-based framework of doing the real work to shift your life of one that embodies abundance and wealth.Transformation from broke to ballin' takes time and consistent work. Darnyelle dispels the myth, though, that hard work is the actual work and offers a perspective on how to set boundaries with relatives and mean girls as your wealth grows. Lady, if you're in a space where you're reviewing the year and planning for next year, let this episode inspire your visualizations of a healthier, brighter, and more prosperous you! Quote of the Day:"I used to get in trouble for talking too much in class, now I use my words to deliver and set free." – Darnyelle Jervey Harmon  Where to find Darnyelle Jervey Harmon:Website: MovetoMillions.comBook: Move to MillionsFacebook: @growyourbusinessperiodInstagram: @darnyellejerveyharmonYouTube: @darnyellejervey  Goal Mapping Starter GuideCultivating H.E.R.

Hey lady! We know that the daily onslaught of the news of these times can be distressing and difficult to ignore. There are genuine reasons to feel alarm during the current administration but we are blessed to have a deep history of having visionaries, luminaries, and trailblazers offer a blueprint of how to imagine brighter tomorrows.Octavia Butler is one of the most prescient artists of our time but her life was lived somewhat in obscurity, only coming to prominence long after her death. Yet, her writing gave way to world-building where weird, strange, genius Black women could write themselves into the future by being present with their experience. Dr. Susana M. Morris, a waymaker in her own right as a founding member of the Crunk Feminist Collective and author of Positive Obsession: The Life and Times of Octavia Butler, explores how Octavia's life circumstances, disciplined writing practice, and passion birthed works that offer a clear-eyed examination of society and culture while also giving full permission for Black women to indulge our imaginations for a beautiful future that includes us!Join Terri and Dr. Dom as they have a spirited discussion with Susana about Octavia Butler and her powerful artistry. While Octavia made it clear that she was not a prophet; she was so deeply connected to her dreams and words that she manifested a body of work that has inspired generations of future trailblazers and wayshowers. Quote of the Day:"Black women writers are necessary so that Black women can define and depict their own experiences rather than being objects in the stories of others." – Octavia Butler  Where to find Susana Morris:Website: Susanmorris.comBook: Positive Obsession: The Life and Times of Octavia ButlerInstagram: @susiemayeTwitter (X): @iamcrunkadelicThreads: @susiemaye    Goal Mapping Starter GuideCultivating H.E.R.

Hey lady! You know like we know that sometimes we are…right. It's never about being right, it's just the truth that sometimes we have opinions that are actually right even if they may be controversial.This week, Terri and Dr. Dom offer a cheeky look at some real “hear us out” situations that will possibly get them cancelled. The two offer some common sense perspectives about things we may have been socialized to believe that are no longer true (White looks just as good in the winter as it does in the Summer) and some that we have been socialized to believe that were actually never true (sugar belongs in a lot of places…just not grits). Lady, tap in on Instagram and let us know which opinions you have that would get you cancelled (respectfully)! Which one of these opinions do you not so secretly agree with? Quote of the Day:“It's givin' ‘I'm right, but let's discuss it anyway.'"— Every Black woman with receipts and restraint    Goal Mapping Starter Guide Cultivating H.E.R.

How do we advocate for equity amidst federal policy changes that actively widen gender and racial gaps?Since April, a record-low unemployment rate for Black Americans has skyrocketed, surging from below 5% to 7.5%. At the same time, the unemployment rate for white Americans dropped slightly to below 4%. The economic position for Black women in particular was just beginning to get better, and today, slashed public sector jobs and a slew of other factors are causing a rapid backslide.When people of color, and especially Black women, lose ground, it's a flashing neon warning sign of systemic cracks that, ultimately, impact us all. In this episode, I'm breaking down the of data that highlights just how heavily our current economic problems are impacting American workers, families, and communities.The numbers don't lie. Here's what they show:The federal and public sector job cuts are disproportionately impacting Black women;Attacks on DEI programs are stifling improvements that had barely begun;Good leadership today looks like advocating for equity and opportunity for all.Related Links:Joint Center for Economic and Policy Research, “The Best Black Economy in Generations – And Why It Isn't Enough” - https://jointcenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/The-Best-Black-Economy-in-Generations-Final.pdfEconomic Policy Institute, “What's behind rising unemployment for Black workers?” - https://www.epi.org/blog/whats-behind-rising-unemployment-for-black-workers/The New York Times, “The Racial Wage Gap is Shrinking” - https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/19/briefing/juneteenth-racial-wage-gap.htmlThe New York Times, “In Trump's Federal Work Force Cuts, Black Women Are Among the Hardest Hit” - https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/us/politics/trump-federal-work-force-black-women.htmlMSNBC, “300,000 Black women have left the labor force in 3 months.

Hey lady! In these trying times connecting with community is more important than ever. Community is not just your close friends or even your family. Community is the place where you live, work, and play. It contains history, wisdom and can thrive when tended to well. That's why Dr. Dom and Terri are thrilled to welcome M. Simone Boyd and Andrea Tudhope, hosts of the podcast We Are North Nashville, as they discuss the power of collecting the stories of the elders in the community to create a beautiful tapestry of legacy, love, and pride.Inspired by a series of tragic events that occurred during the pandemic, Simone set out to capture the stories of the elders in her life before it was too late. But, as she soon found out the work was worthy but the emotional labor would take a toll if she didn't recruit help for her noble mission. Together, with her co-hosts, Andrea and Steve Haruch, the three embarked on a journey of bridge building, record setting, and community preservation that has led to a fulfilling audio project the residents of North Nashville can feel proud of. If you're in a space where you know you need to build community and you want to contribute to the community you live in but don't know where to get started tune in to today's episode. Andrea and Simone offer their perspective on how approaching people and conversations from a heart-centered place can get all of us back to a place where we peacefully coexist and thrive together. Lady, we want to hear from you! Holla at us in Instagram and let us know how you're building community or working to preserve the stories of the community you're in. Quote of the Day:"It needs to be pointed out...the things that were done to North Nashville to sacrifice that part of Nashville in the name of progress."– Thomas Wilson  Goal Mapping Starter Guide Cultivating H.E.R.

Hey lady! We know you've been doing the work. The real, soul-transformative work that opens your world to new possibilities and brighter days. We're so proud of you for making a commitment to yourself to be a better you for YOU. But, the truth is that healing does not happen in a vacuum and some of the most powerful healing happens in community. What does that mean? In short, it's time to step out of your cocoon so that you can step into your power and purpose.One of the most powerful skills in allowing community to see you, support, and help you grow to your highest potential is skillful vulnerability. We name vulnerability as a skill rather than a tool because it takes learned practice and developed discernment to use it authentically, but baby when it settles in your system you build a level of self-trust that allows you to engage with people and situations with grace and awareness that offers a true richness in life.So, are you ready to expand your capacity for real, genuine, human interactions and cultivate the life of your dreams? Tap in. Dr. Dom and Terri offer a grounded perspective of ways to increase vulnerability and signs that a certain person may not be deserving of your intimate space. As with all things pack your self-compassion and self-forgiveness as you enjoy the ride but be sure to make room for all of the beauty life has to offer when you let the real you shine.If you haven't heard it today, we love you for real lady! Quote of the Day:"Being a Strong Black Woman doesn't mean that you can't be vulnerable. It's okay to cry. It's okay if you're having a bad day. It's okay if some days you feel like giving up. It's okay if you need to ask for help." – Stephanie Lahart  Goal Map Like a Pro WorkbookCultivating H.E.R.
