Charity joins us to discuss growing up on the west side of Detroit, her experience being homeschooled and raised in her father's Missionary Baptist Church, attending Tennessee State University, how she made a name for herself as an electrifying performer who creates high quality content, the story behind many of her hit songs, and much more. She performed with R&B legends such as Eric Roberson, Angie Stone, Eric Benét, Lalah Hathaway, Bilal, and PJ Morton. Charity has been featured in BLAC Detroit, Detroit Metro Times, Hour Detroit, Detroit Free Press, SoulTracks, HuffPost, and Billboard. She showed so much promise with her debut song "Sounds Like Love" released in 2011; the Motown influenced artist then took the world by storm in 2015 with the release of her adoring EP Yellow; she proved that she was a force to be reckoned with after releasing her CLASSIC debut album Tender Headed in 2020. Tender Headed helped so many get through the highly tumultuous and unpredictable year of the Pandemic, thus garnering over 1 million streams on Spotify. Charity can't be put in a box as you'll hear influences of R&B, Neo Soul, Folk, Pop, Funk, Acoustic, Hip Hop, Trap Music, and Gospel in her music. What we love most is the instrumentation, close attention to detail, and simplicity of the lyrics packed with so much depth and vulnerability. Charity recently submitted a live performance of her hit song "Cruel" to a Tiny Desk contest with Top Shelf and was chosen in the top 45 performers out of 7000+ submissions. This accomplishment alone speaks to her artistry and her undying commitment to spending 10000+ hours perfecting her craft. You definitely don't want to miss this inspiring conversation!!

Jason drops by to discuss growing up on the west side of Detroit, the indelible impact his parents have had on his life, how he gained his love for computers which led him down the path of becoming a Multimedia Professional, and how he went from starting his own online radio station to creating ShoptalkPodcast Studio. Jason is also an entrepreneur, a photographer, videographer, sound/video engineer, and the co-host of two hit podcast shows: Shoptalk Podcast & This Week In Culture. He's released roughly 800 podcast episodes between the two shows dating back to June of 2016; in other words, he's released an average of 2 episodes per week over an 8 year span. Talk about WORK ETHIC!! We had a deep, philosophical discussion about whether or not stories in the Bible should be interpreted as literal or allegorical text. Jason and I also discuss his desire to be a husband and father, and how challenging it is to fit the pursuit of those things into his extremely busy schedule. ShoptalkPodcast Studio (located in Oak Park, MI) has been the home of over 200 podcasts since it was established in 2017. Jason has figured out a way to selflessly use his purpose to help others pursue theirs. Lots of life gems were dropped in this episode, so have your pen and pad ready!

Monica Yatooma stops by to discuss growing up in West Bloomfield, MI, values she learned from her parents, finishing undergrad in 3 years, and meeting her husband shortly after obtaining her degree. She worked as a Medical Device Rep for years before starting her own business, Metro Detroit Medical Waste. She served as a sponsor for the Chaldean American Association of Healthcare Professional. She took it upon herself to become the change she wanted to see by running for Oakland County Commissioner in August of 2022. Monica managed to win 40% of the vote despite it being her first time running for anything and despite her opposing candidate having 20 years of experience as commissioner. She's an advocate for truth, transparency, and accountability in government and public education, and the courage she exemplifies when using her much needed voice to protect parental rights is truly inspiring. You certainly don't want to miss this conversation as we tackle serious topics that include abortion, the 2020 pandemic, and child grooming in public schools (Critical Race Theory, Gender Theory, and Diversity Equity and Inclusion).

Donyale drops in to discuss being raised in Flint, Michigan, living in New York before deciding to move back to home, creating her affordable and culturally centered accessory brand Hoop Mobb (home of the hoop earring) in 2019, and balancing entrepreneurship and motherhood. In 2023 she received the Circle of Seven award at the Traffic Sales & Profit (TSP) Game Plan event for Hoop Mobb doing over 7 figures in sales the previous year. She was invited to TSP Live later that year to speak on the 7-figure panel; Cathy Hughes and Issa Rae, amongst many other successful and well known individuals, were guest speakers at the conference. Donyale was also invited to be a guest speaker at the 2022 AspireCon event. Hoop Mobb has been featured on Buzzfeed, Time, and Love & Hip Hop and her business has done the unthinkable with breaking the "million dollars in sales" ceiling 3 of the 5 years its been in existence. It's no surprise why Hoop Mobb's booth was packed all day at the 2023 Essence Fest; the honor of being invited to such a legendary event alone speaks volumes about her business' pedigree. Donyale's success can be attributed to her undying passion and persistence, the quality and trendy jewelry at Hoop Mobb, and the top tier service Donyale and her team provides to its customers.
