  • Adulting with Aiyana Glover
    Aiyana Glover, a COOL SOROR of DST, joins the show today!  She and Rashan Ali met at Essence Wellness House in Atlanta earlier this year and made an instant connection.  This ambitious 20-something year old is teaching other young women how to navigate life after college.
     
    She says, "I want people to understand that postgraduate depression is a real thing that we need to address. Every single person who graduates from college has a life-changing transition and no one is telling us how to prepare for that. So I want people to know that my website is here and a resource for anyone who would like some guidance."

  • Beautiful, Wild & Free with Erin Marie
    We are excited to have Erin Marie, A Cool Soror of AKA, Founder and CIO of BWF Woman! 
     
    Here is what Erin says was a pivotal moment in her life:
    One of the pivotal moments in my path as an entrepreneur was deciding to be vulnerable by sharing my story on Instagram via @BWFwoman.
     
    Telling my story required me to come face-to-face with what I considered to be failures. I thought that there might be an opportunity for healing for myself and others through doing this, but I didn’t have any proof.
     
    For me, it was a risk, and now I know it was a risk that was worth taking.
     
    Sharing about what I could’ve done better, where I messed up and what
     
    I’ve learned has grown from simple Instagram posts to a sold-out annual Retreat, a Masterclass that has educated hundreds of women, and a ministry that has guided women on a heart-healing process, from here in the US, all the way to the Philippines.
