Real conversations with family, close friends, acquaintances, and soon those that I admire to encourage true healing of communities through conversation and action. With an emphasis on action, the mission is truly create solutions to life long challenges, all while asking tough questions to provoke positive change throughout the diaspora; so we can all grow through this thing called life.

Growing Thru It Pod: Growing Through Segregation

In this episode for 1 hour and 30 minutes, @ImJustJoslyn had the pleasure of finally getting her mother, @RosaHiggins4, to take a break from her busy life, have a seat, and indulge in a conversation around growing through segregation. Please understand it was no easy feat to get @RosaHiggins4 to sit down for this long, because she's always either helping family or friends, cooking for them, or on the phone talking to them, so it was a great treat!

@ImJustJoslyn took last week's homework and actively found time to discuss with her mother, the challenges, fortitude, and resilience she embodied to be able to grow through that time in her life, and they are hoping that the listeners can sit back and take a ride down memory lane to understand not only how amazing @RosaHiggins4 is, but if they find a little time to do just a little digging, they can uncover how amazing their loved ones are too.

Plan of Action:

1. Connect with your loved ones around music, it could be a song that brings back happy memories, or an event like a family reunion where music was playing, and everyone got up to do their favorite line dance together. Just take time to revisit gleeful moments with those you care about.

2. Check out a book written by a Black or Brown author. My book recommendation for this episode is called: "BET ON BLACK" by Eboni K. Williams.

3. Try out the socially conscious and entertaining podcast: HIGHER LEARNING with hosts Van Lathan and Rachel Lindsay.

Music:

1. Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel by Tavares

2. It Don't Have to Change by John Legend

3. Family Reunion by Jill Scott
