In this episode of Every Day a Better You, Farid (“Flip”) and Henri “Boo” dive into the often-destructive power of perception.

Whether it was being seen as the “bad kid,” “the angry Black man,” or “the one who’ll never make it”—we’ve both carried labels that didn’t match our truth.

We unpack how the world saw us growing up versus who we really were inside. We talk about the teachers, cops, even family members who judged us based on where we came from or how we looked, and how those false narratives almost became real.

Most importantly, we break down how we pushed past those labels—and how we now make sure not to place them on the next generation.

Real stories. Real results. This is Every Day a Better You.
