On this episode of Allow Me to Reintroduce Myself, Michael and Kareese finish off their first season of the show by each presenting their favorite moments so far! Counting down from three to one, the two hosts remiensce about all the show's exciting moments and how happy they are that they were able to share those moments together. As Kareese mentions their past nicknames for one another and Michael recounts on the vulnerability that has been established between them, this episode is not one to miss! "End of the Road" also has a clip-show element, as the previous episodes that are mentioned get inserted into this final cut (to help jog the listeners' memories and because it adds a little mmph haha). This is one you don't want to miss!

On this episode of Allow Me to Reintroduce Myself, things are a little different. Instead of having Michael and Kareese delving into a new topic to learn more about it, this episode only features Kareese as she recaps on the progress she’s made (or lack thereof) on her New Year’s resolutions. The shortened episode really focuses on her growth as a person from 2020 to now, and how these resolutions were created as a way to put these “newly-formed person” habits into practice! From re-learning how to do the splits to trusting herself to know what’s truly best for her, Kareese’s resolutions were intentional and humorous. We hope you enjoy!

To end our Black History Month series, we’ve got something very exciting in store!

On this episode of Allow Me to Reintroduce Myself, Michael and Kareese continue their Black History Month series by interviewing the incredible Charles Griggs!

Following, he began to pursue a variety of careers in marketing and sports reporting, all leading up to his current position as CEO of Eighth&Whitner (a company he founded!). Michael, Kareese, and Charles have an informative conversation about life, change and what we’ve learned along the way. Enjoy!

Welcome back to the show! On this episode of Allow Me to Reintroduce Myself, Michael and Kareese are joined by the fabulous Uzo Ngwu! A sophomore at Harvard College, Uzo works heavily with 2D illustration and has begun expanding her talents to include digital animation (you can see an animation she did for a class final project on her twitter @uzotheartist. It’s amazing!). She was an absolute dream to talk to and filled us in on all the beautiful parts of her journey as an artist and how she has grown as a person! Michael informs us about prominent Black artists and their work in landscape, while Uzo gives us insight into her recent pursuit of art, not as a hobby, but as a career. It was a marvelous first interview for the us two, and we hope you enjoy!

On this episode of Allow Me to Reintroduce Myself, Michael and Kareese discuss the two coronavirus vaccines that have been approved by the FDA, whether or not we should trust them, and whether we plan on getting the vaccine ourselves! Kareese also opens up about her plans for the new year, including her excitement to finally take control of her own life, instead of letting it pass her by. In hopes of giving our listeners a little more insight on the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, we bring up the specifics of each vaccine in order to ease some common fears and debunk various myths surrounding the two vaccines and their developments.

Thank you for listening to our very first installment of Allow Me to Reintroduce Myself! On this episode, Michael joins Kareese to discuss the ins and outs of emotional isolation. We delve into its true definition, which generation is the most negatively affected, and how we pull ourselves out of our own despair when emotional isolation hits us. Michael opens up about choices he made in the past that fed his emotional isolationist tendencies, while reflecting on its cause and the consequences it had on every aspect of his life. Together, we use the research we conducted and our own experience to find ways that all of us can be better friends, partners and strangers to one another (hint: it has to do with compassion).
