Relatively Normal - S5 - Ep135 - A Sip With Samaad
Have you missed me? I have definitely missed all of you. But, I am back and I have a great show and a great guest for you. In this episode, I speak with Samaad Wes Keys, a gay black man, about his experiences growing up and navigating society. Samad shares how he felt different from a young age and how he used wit as a defense mechanism. He discusses the pressure to excel and represent black men in a society that often has higher expectations for them. Dr. Keys also talks about the lack of representation of gay black men in the media and the challenges he faced in society. Despite these challenges, Samaad emphasizes the importance of self-acceptance and living authentically. During the show, Samaad Wes Keys discusses the challenges he faced with religion and acceptance and shares how he struggled to find a spiritual refuge due to the lack of acceptance in certain religious communities. Samaad offers advice to young black men who are questioning their identity, emphasizing the importance of self-acceptance and defining oneself. He encourages individuals to embrace their differences and tap into their unique skills. We also learned about Samaad's podcast, 'A Sip With Samad,' where he explores various topics and shares his perspectives. Find out more at https://linktr.ee/Asipwithsamaad.

Relatively Normal - S5 - Ep131 - A Voice For Victims with Dana Diaz
Dana S. Diaz is a wife, mother, and author of the best-selling book GASPING FOR AIR: THE STRANGLEHOLD OF NARCISSISTIC ABUSE. Starting in her childhood years, she endured lifelong experiences with narcissistic abuse. Her education in journalism and psychology at DePaul University in Chicago gave her the ability to accurately verbalize and express how narcissistic abuse creates confusion and conflict within victims, so that she can help other victims know they are not alone and better understand their own circumstances. Today, Dana is a proud voice for fellow victims who are unable, afraid, or ashamed to share their experiences. She strives to create awareness and understanding to ensure victims are given the support they need to first understand their situation and then begin the healing process. Her first book, chronicling her own abusive marriage that lasted nearly three decades, started as a journal that she hid under the couch cushion in the basement.

Relatively Normal - S5 - Ep129 - Black Men with Kevin McIntyre and Bobby Shelley
The image of the Black man in America has changed over time and continues to evolve. Historically, Black men have been subjected to negative stereotypes and discrimination, often portrayed as violent, dangerous, and intellectually inferior. These stereotypes were perpetuated through media representation, such as in films and television shows, and in everyday interactions. However, in recent years, there has been a shift in the portrayal of Black men in the media and in popular culture. Black men are now being portrayed more positively, with more representation in film and television as complex, multifaceted individuals with a range of emotions and experiences. There has also been a growing recognition of the impact of systemic racism and discrimination on Black men, including the ways in which it can lead to economic disadvantage, social isolation, and negative health outcomes. Despite these changes, Black men continue to face significant challenges in American society, including higher rates of incarceration, police brutality, and economic inequality. Efforts to address these issues and create a more equitable society for all are ongoing. For these reasons, I have invited 2 of my close friends, Bobby Shelley and Kevin McIntyre, to the show to discuss the current state of the black man in America. Also, I just wanted to have a conversation with two black fathers who are raising black sons and show the world that this is our normal: black men giving back to society, being positive role models and working hard everyday to become better versions of themselves. Finally, this will be my last show for awhile. I am taking a break to focus on the 6AM Run podcast. Also, I wanted to take some time to decide where I want this show to go and if it has possibly run its course. Thanks again for all your support.

I could have brought a black guest on to talk about February but that song and dance is played out.  I could have told everyone that I am going to focus on poverty, police brutality, the unbalanced school system and other things plaguing the black community during Black History Month, but that is so 2022.  From now on, I am continuing the conversation throughout the entire year.  That is why I invited Dr. Kimya Nuru Dennis to chat with me.

Relatively Normal - S5 - Ep127 - Please Fix Me with Josie Warren
This is going to be a little different for most of you.  As some of you know, I am the host of another show, the "6AMRun Podcast."  That show is not only about running and nutrition, but it also about self-help and lifesfyle. We bring on all kinds of guests and this week I wanted to bring you into that show.  Join 6AMRun.com Ambassador and Host, Marc Paisant, as we welcome Autoimmune expert, Josie Warren, to the show.  For much of her young adult life, Josie struggled with autoimmune disorders, severe food allergies, a debilitating eating disorder anorexia, alcoholism, ADD, and anxiety and depression. She was told by her medical doctors that each of her diagnoses was lifelong and that she just needed to manage them the best she could for the rest of her life. Josie felt crushed, like a lost cause and there was really no hope for her. She was only in her twenties – these were supposed to be the best years of her life. Fortunately, Josie was on a quest for answers and had a lightening bolt awareness- the emotional stress in her life had unknowingly created all of her illnesses. The good news was she could do something about her stress. From this shift in awareness, she knew she could change her relationship to stress. As she began to realize that her illnesses were in her control, in less than two months, all her symptoms dissolved and faded away. Seven years later, Josie is 100 percent healthy and no longer has any of her former conditions. “I feel fully alive not just surviving.” She is passionate and excited about sharing what saved her life with others.
