Black Feminism: Art, Healing & Exploration feat. Amanda Bennett

Thu, 17 Feb 2022 02:00:00 -0600

The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines "feminism" as the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities. What's controversial about this concept?

For many Black women, the concept of feminism is complex. There's a discomfort that comes with aligning with a concept that traditionally only amplifies, humanizes, and supports the voices of white women.

Does feminism hold space for Black women? Is it our place to demand the stage, or better yet, build our own?

define&empower founder, Amanda Bennett joins us on the new SheConfidential podcast episode to explore these questions and others related to Black feminism.

Amanda is a Black feminist educator, consultant, poet, and PhD candidate in Literature at Duke University. Amanda used her academic knowledge of Black feminism, LGBTQ studies, and cultural studies as the foundation for define&empower, a Black feminist education and consulting collective.

CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS

Explains what it means to be a Black feminist.

Finding a Career AND Fulfillment feat. Dr. Tega Edwin

Thu, 06 Jan 2022 02:00:00 -0600

There's been a lot of buzz about The Great Resignation, a phrase used to describe the record breaking number of people leaving their jobs during the COVID-19 pandemic.

And according to United States Department of Labor statistics, women are leading the number of resignations. This shouldn't be surprising given the disproportionate responsibilities women often carry at home and the never-ending pay gaps between men and women workers. Even before the pandemic, too many women were carrying way too much, with insufficient satisfaction, support, recognition, or compensation.

Stressed, burned out, underpaid, and so over it, more women are finally stepping up to show up for themselves and make intentional career moves.

On the new SheConfidential podcast episode, career counselor and coach Dr. Tega Edwin shares insights on how to have a fulfilling career. In addition, Dr. Edwin:

Outlines the signs that it is time to find a new career.
Highlights how to apply your skills to a career that will align with your values and key to fulfillment.
Offers tips for pushing through fear.
Explains how Her Career Doctor can help those seeking career fulfillment.
Describes the three things you need to do to have a fulfilling career.

Diversity Equity and Inclusion for the Fine Arts and Education feat. Sana Colter

Thu, 23 Dec 2021 02:00:00 -0600

For many of us, a song or even the first few notes of a tune are enough to transport us to a particular time, feeling, place, or face. During the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, virtual concerts, and online music events provided the healing and connections we needed. Now that the world is fumbling towards a new normal, everyone is trying to regroup.

But even before the pandemic, certain facets of the arts community were already struggling. Orchestras and symphonies, needing to attract new devoted patrons, were falling short on appeal and relevance as a result of their lack of diversity and connection to prospective audiences.

A 2016 study of the League of American Orchestras indicated that Black musicians made up less than 2% of orchestras despite being 12% of the US population. Why aren't there more Black musicians?

On the new SheConfidential podcast episode, musician and CREATE (Cultural Rhythm Expressing Art to Empower) founder and president, Sana Colter describes the factors contributing to the underrepresentation of Black musicians and identifies ways this can be addressed.

In addition, Sana also discusses:

Links between school budgets and arts programs
Options for careers in the arts
Ways to pay for musical training and instruments
Importance of expanding diversity and inclusion efforts to attract and support young artists
Role of CREATE (Cultural Rhythm Expressing Art to Empower) in highlighting the work of Black/Latinx artists.
Ways the public can support artists and programs/training for aspiring artists

The Impact of Criminalizing HIV in People of Color feat. Kim Hunt

Thu, 09 Dec 2021 02:00:00 -0600

Having HIV is a crime in the United States.

Currently, 35 states have laws that allow felony prosecution for exposure to HIV, even if the exposure doesn’t result in the transmission of HIV.

People of color make up 25% of the US population and over 50% of people diagnosed with HIV. This means that people of color are also the ones most impacted by laws criminalizing HIV.

Unfortunately, most people know nothing about these laws. This results in confusion, increased discrimination and bias against those living with HIV.

As we’ve often heard, knowledge is power.

And today’s episode is a start towards increasing awareness of this issue. This episode featuring Kim Hunt, Executive Director of the Pride Action Tank, is packed with information about the movement to decriminalize HIV and remove the stigma associated with this public health crisis.

In addition, Kim Hunt explains:

What it means to decriminalize laws related to HIV and AIDS.
Passage of the Illinois law (House Bill 1063) decriminalizing HIV and AIDS.
Ways criminalizing HIV undermines public health.
Benefits of PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis).
The problem with public health matters like HIV falling under the criminal law umbrella.

In addition, nurse attorney Irnise Williams explains:

Key info about the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) including:
- what private health information HIPAA generally protects
- which employers and companies are subject to HIPAA
- what employee COVID related information is not protected

Mental Health for Happy Holidays feat. Amethyst Roberson

Thu, 18 Nov 2021 02:00:00 -0600

For many, the holidays and the accompanying family gatherings can trigger stress, anxiety, and trauma. Family members with "loose lips" may make damaging comments about people's bodies and how much/little folks are eating. Events may be in places or include people who conjure painful memories or emotions. And the holidays often spark reminders of loved ones lost and can highlight the loneliness others may be experiencing.

In this episode, Amethyst Roberson helps us explore the complex emotions the holidays can trigger and offers guidance to help us navigate family gatherings in a healthy way. Mrs. Roberson offers tips to help you:

Understand the prevalence and symptoms of seasonal affective disorder.
Emphasize the quality, not quality of self-care.
Learn the role of triggers and pain as it relates to healing.
Harness the courage to use your voice.
Prepare for conflict you may encounter at family gatherings.
Communicate your needs and concerns with family elders.
Cope with grief and loss during the holidays.

Ready to Die: Estate Planning 101 feat. Wayne Hood

Thu, 30 Sep 2021 02:00:00 -0500

Money drama is the last thing people should have to sort through following the death of a loved one. Unfortunately, many of us have heard the stories about families locked in conflict as they try to pool funds to pay for the funeral or memorial service or bickering over who is entitled to family heirlooms or property. Too many of us have firsthand experience with the family fallouts that unfold when a loved one dies. Estate planning can help avoid so much of this.

Estate planning includes the process of documenting your wishes for how you want your assets and personal property distributed upon your death or incapacitation.

During the new SheConfidential podcast episode, attorney Wayne Hood explains:

Components of an estate plan including wills, trusts, power of attorney, advance directives, business succession, HIPAA authorization, and beneficiary designations.
Why estate planning is something everyone should do, regardless of income level or value of assets.
How estate planning can be used to protect and create generational wealth.
How estate planning alleviates some of the stress associated with the loss of a loved one.
Different considerations for those with children, those with family members who have special needs, and single individuals.
The benefits of working with an attorney and other professionals to design an estate plan instead of using an online template.
Why it’s important to start estate planning sooner rather than later.

Pelvic Floor Dysfunction & Physical Therapy feat. Dr. Tieya M. Qualls

Thu, 16 Sep 2021 02:00:00 -0500

Our bodies are wonderful machines capable of creating new life, but many of the things we're taught about our bodies are flat out wrong.

Qualls, a physical therapist with a specialty in pelvic issues.

This conversation is also for those who may not be experiencing any discomfort but want to be proactive in managing their pelvic health. Pelvic health is related to the function of our bowel, bladder, and reproductive organs.

Intergenerational Trauma and It's Impact on Relationships feat. Jared Washington

Thu, 02 Sep 2021 02:00:00 -0500

Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it. And although slavery ended over 100 years ago, the systems, beliefs, and prejudices it left behind are things we still battle today. And the impacts don't stop at politics or gaps in influence and wealth. Relationship dynamics between Black couples, families, and communities have also been burdened with intergenerational traumas stemming from slavery.

If we're going to heal from the mental and emotional scars slavery left behind, we need to explore how intergenerational traumas impact Black men and women and identify ways to start healing. This is what Jared Washington, an Atlanta based Licensed Professional Counselor, discusses in today's episode.

Jared has dedicated his life to empowering Black people through mental health counseling and providing education to break the mental and emotional barriers holding us back. From founding his company H.O.P.E. LLC to writing his book, "Heal or Repeal: Breaking the Cycle of Intergenerational Trauma," Jared is working tirelessly to bring awareness to these issues and we applaud his efforts.

Thu, 19 Aug 2021 02:00:00 -0500

How do we reconcile our faith with the world around us? How do you balance your calling with the demands of every day life?

For Dr. Kimberly Davis it's not a question of balance - that would imply that she has to choose. Instead, she's living a lifestyle that blends God, her community and her work in a way that makes sense for her. It's not about which she loves more, it's about harmony. In today's episode, we dive into what it means for Kimberly to be Black, a woman of God, and a Chicago Police Department Officer while striving to be a bridge builder for the community she serves.

Self Care & Luxury Travel feat. Claire B. Soares

Thu, 12 Aug 2021 02:00:00 -0500

Self-care isn't a new term that's trendy. It's not a fad that's going to go away.

If you're even vaguely familiar with the term, you know it means more than just treating yourself to your Saturday night glass of wine. It's about improving the quality of your life in ways that feel good and bring you pleasure and joy. It's empowerment.

In this episode Claire B. Soares, founder of Up In the Air Life, a luxury travel agency, breaks down exactly what self-care means for her and why everyone needs it! Find out what made her leave the halls of corporate America to move to the beaches of Mexico and how living her best life inspired her to become the Queen of Bougie Travel.

Ditch Dating Drama feat. Olivia Baylor

Thu, 29 Apr 2021 02:00:00 -0500

The pandemic hasn’t forced singles into love lockdown mode as statistics indicate that more people are turning to dating apps in 2021. Although the virtual environment offers seemingly infinite options, more isn’t always better and doesn’t necessarily increase chances for a love match.

On this episode, couples therapist Olivia L. Baylor highlights considerations and guidance for those looking to avoid dating drama once and for all! We discuss why dating is so hard, how to set expectations, the benefits of couples therapy/counseling and more!

SPECIAL NOTES

Avoid using the terms “mentally disabled,” “mentally handicapped,” or “mentally ill.” It is appropriate to say that someone “has a mental illness.” It can also be appropriate to say “mental health condition,” since many people who deal with mental health concerns may not have a formal diagnosis or a full-fledged illness.
Therapists recognize that gift giving is customary and a matter of respect for some cultures. Therapists will acknowledge this with the client but the therapist’s policy on gifts will remain the same as for all other clients.
