This week the ladies are taking a break and the men are in control! Yes, you read that right, we actually left Gio and Justin alone in the studio with the equipment unsupervised. And while Justin cursed once, they brought in Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Alcohol & Drug Counselor, Antonio Wheeler to have a conversation about men's mental health and what support looks like in the Black community for our men. With the studio to themselves, the men of TMP get real and share their experiences with vulnerability, encounters with the police, and more.

Gio's clocked back in for work and according to THEE Lena Waithe and Yvette Nicole Brown, he's looking for love! Or, something like that...

re·lease 1. allow or enable to escape from confinement; set free. It takes a LOT to be a Multitasker and show up day after day ready to go above and beyond. If we're being honest (and we always are) June was a rough one for us. We had to fight, hard, to show up at our best and even then some days we still couldn't cut it. The good news is we learned a lot from our experiences and now we can share with you. On this episode of The Multitasker Podcast, your favorite cohost comes together to talk about their experiences over the past 30 days. We cover everything from running a new business to navigating a breakup and the dating scene to dealing with loss and so much more. We're getting really vulnerable in this one...we needed to.

re·spect·a·bil·i·ty the state or quality of being proper, correct, and socially acceptable. What started off as a random game of "name your taboo" quickly turned into revelations from growing up black and the respectability politics that come with it. Respectability Politics is defined as a set of beliefs holding that conformity to prescribed mainstream standards of appearance and behavior will protect a person who is part of a marginalized group, especially a Black person, from prejudices and systemic injustices. Some, in cultural settings, can be argued to be "Black Standards," but what implications do those have when we live amongst a broader society? From minding our manners, to respecting our elders, and even sharing salaries and how we raise our kids. We're constantly confronting our past experiences and learnings to determine our future. On this episode of The Multitasker Podcast, our hosts share their thoughts about some of the Black community's taboo topics and their real-life experiences with them.

man·i·fest to make evident or certain by showing or displaying⁠. Imagine being asked to apply for a job you have no background in or idea how to do. Imagine, you somehow land the job and now your life is changed forever. Sounds crazy right? For Empire star Ta'Rhonda Jones, that was her reality. Having never acted professionally in her life, Ta'Rhonda landed her role as Porsha on Empire, personal assistant to Cookie Lyon (Taraji P. Henson), and catapulted her career into heights she could at one point only imagine. Now, the actress/producer/director/rapper/philanthropist/MasterChef Champ is live with us on The Multitasker Podcast sharing her story and so much more!

au·then·tic adjective of undisputed origin; genuine. We all know how important it is to be able to be ourselves--but that doesn't mean we don't struggle in showing up in every space as said self. One of the places where being authentic can be the hardest is within the workplace. On Season 2 Episode 4 of The Multitasker Podcast we're joined by Dr. Tamara Fletcher, a Fortune 200 leader in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Dr. Fletcher not only drops gems through her shared journey to authenticity, but she also talks about what it takes to bravely show up authentically wherever we go. Of course, we also have more advice for adults from our resident Whiz Kid Havi. Press play and tune into this week's episode!

com·fort a state of physical ease and freedom from pain or constraint. We don't know about y'all but it's been a crazy few weeks (months...year?!)! Taking time to reflect on what's working and reset the things that aren't is essential to being a #Multitasker and in episode 3, Bry, Christina, and Gio are doing just that. Tune in to hear more about what it means to us to choose comfort over chaos AND get some "Advice for Adults" from our resident whiz kid, Haviland Redmond.

Welcome back to another episode of The Multitasker Podcast! In Season 2 Episode 2, Rashante gives us a behind-the-scenes look at what it was like to be a part of the production team for Creed 3, how it was to work with Michael B. Jordan as an actor and director, and so much more. **Spoiler Alert** If you haven't seen the movie, see it before you tune in so we don't spoil it. If you have, come on in, and let's talk about this historical movie and how it can help us as we reflect on our own lives and goals.  Host: Bryana Holcomb @itscoachbry Co-Host: Rashante Lee @rashantelee Co-Host: Gio Johnson @giojohnson Co-Host: Jatarra Gilliand @lifeslittlechameleon --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heyitsbry/message
