Happy Valentines Day SOUL Vibrant Fam <3On this national day of Love, I hope you feel and receive it all, regardless of relationship status. Love is such a transformative force that can heal, nourish, and empower us. And between you and me, your host is ready for her own love story. However, I've noticed that we [society] place a lot of expectations on finding it within our lives. So after learning to decolonize love and speaking life into it, I still have questions. Can you find love in the places you hate? Are the characteristics I want in a partner authentic to me? And what is a Soft Man Era? Tune in to learn along with me.Podcast intro produced by: Leem Lizzy @leemlizzyMusical highlight artists:Frank Simmons III ft.

It's been a while SOUL Vibrant Fam!!To say I missed Y'all is an understatement. Glad to be back and give you a new conversation for Black History Month.

But you have more power to overcome than you realize. This power lies within Your Work. I took time to learn this for myself. Now I want to encourage you all to do the same. Coupled with acts of rest and joy, it's time to discover and do your Work.Podcast intro produced by: Leem Lizzy @leemlizzyMusic highlight artists:Cleo SolSocial-@gyallikecleeCarmen RodgersSocial-@carmenrodgersPlease support SOUL Vibrant Podcast by:1 .Donate to PayPal : https://www.paypal.me/Queenladyac2.

Habari Gani SOUL Vibrant Fam!It's The Last Show of the Year, and it's so fitting that it lands on today's Kwanzaa's principal. Kujichagualia translates to self-determination, highlighting the importance of knowing ourselves fully. 2025 has challenged us to be active players in our lives and the world around us. Are you clear or indecisive, seeking Justice or straddling the fence, unhappy and unsettled, or secure and healing? This year forced us to reckon with the truth. Whether we're ready for it or not.

*For Your Consideration*Although created to maintain "order" in the segregated south, learn about how one small town used a recreational park as a source of Joy. Originally for the Black citizens of Harris County, Georgia, the park's popularity grew to attract visitors from all over the state and even from the neighboring state of Alabama. After its closing in the late 1970s, the park's existence was no more than a memory of those who enjoy it. Until Now!

SOUL Vibrant is Officially Back since I took time to focus on my health. It's bizarre how quickly "My Body, My Choice", "A woman's right to choose", and other various pro-choice attitudes change when the choices go against societal "comforts". Or when the individual reclaiming their right of choice is deemed unworthy, undesirable, or unfit to make such noise. 47 % of physicians underestimate Black patients' pain levels. Black Women face a 3x higher mortality rate compared to other races, and 40% of providers have negative attitudes about patients with higher weight [Fat] bodies. I sit at the intersection of all 3 identities.

"GOD is good all the time and ALL the time , GOD is good"It is the final week of Hoodoo Heritage Month—what better way to close out the month than by highlighting my most recently connected ancestor? In Season 1, I uncovered my ancestry and the history of Mack Miller Park. Although I share my journey of discovery, I never talked about the powerful spiritual experience of creating the episode. Until Now. With his Permission I reintroduce you to my Ancestral Uncle Mack Miller. The entrepreneur and businessman valued education, community, and self-actualization. Being a devoted Christian, Mack Miller was not a hoodoo. However, He consistently encouraged the use of my gifts, seeing them As a blessing from GOD to me. Tune in as I give you a spiritual behind-the-scenes look at Ode to Mack Miller Park.Podcast intro produced by: Leem Lizzy @leemlizzyMusic highlight artists:Lashun Pace (Rest in Peace) ft.

"Where there is a woman , there is magic - Ntozake Shange"For week 3 of Hoodoo Heritage Month, (With her permission) let me introduce you to Mama "EYE". Originally from New Orleans, Mama "Eye" was sold to a plantation in Georgia, where she spent her entire life rebelling and fighting for Black liberation. Coming from a strong line of voodoo women, she used her gifts for healing, guidance, and empowerment. Her essence illustrated how often people confuse hoodoo for voodoo or vice versa. Using the confusion to her advantage, check out how Mama "Eye" taught me to see hoodoo as an alchemy to Never downplay my gifts or my importance.
