  • Growner and still gettin’

    Been listening to Dr Keia and Chef Jade easily since 2017 (?) and I never get tired. I’ll always love them for finding a way to shout out my class of 2020 high school graduating daughter even though I was late getting the request in. It put a much needed smile on her face and mine. I’m older than these women by a decade, but they teach and inspire me so much. Thank you ladies. For everything that you do. To quote Jade, I wish you both the (glorious, fabulous, blessed) days you deserve! ❤️❤️

Candice describes finding a small lump in Houston, struggling to access follow-up care, and eventually receiving a diagnosis of triple-negative breast cancer that had spread to her lymph nodes.
On and Off the Mat (Featuring Bri Alexander)
Q: How do you quiet the noise and help others be present in a loud, overstimulating society?

On and Off the Mat (Featuring Bri Alexander)
Q: Can you help us understand sound baths and sound healing, breathwork, and yoga, including the differences between yoga as exercise and yoga as a lifestyle?
Alexander explains yoga as a practice of union with physical, philosophical and relational dimensions. She describes sound healing as using tones and vibrations to support relaxation and nervous-system regulation, while breathwork helps people notice and regulate their bodies.
To Be REAL (Featuring Janai Nelson)
Q: How do you keep your personal spirit up? How do you keep your spirit going in this type of climate with all of these things happening around us? Like, how do you keep yourself wanting to continue to fight?
Nelson says she refuses to accept defeat and draws confidence from Black history and evidence of what Black communities have accomplished, while recognizing the struggle can be difficult and dangerous.
