  • Intersectionality and Representation in Education with Zach Williams

    In this episode, we take a deep dive into the education system with Zach Williams, including discussing intersectionality and alternative teaching methodologies. Zach is a North Louisiana native and advocate for the inclusion of arts, consideration of mental health, and social justice in education. After receiving his bachelors in Sociology and English from Fisk University and starting a career in social work, Williams quickly saw that more preventative measures can be taken from the angle of education. This prompted him to teach and earn his masters in teaching from RELAY Graduate School of Education with a concentration of ELA instruction to match his passion for reading and writing.

    Zach is also part-time poet and prose author, and is currently pursuing his doctoral degree for Educational Leadership at Xavier University of Louisiana.

      • Connecting Artists to Resources with Kadeem Phillips

        Kadeem Phillips is taking the music industry by the horns and forging new paths and opportunities for creatives of color by relentlessly shining a light on the lack of opportunities for Black people in the music industry.

          • Finding Your Voice with Briana Elmore

            How do you show up in a space where you don’t see yourself represented? Truth is, this is common for people of color and many times we’re isolated or overlooked. In this episode, we hear Briana Elmore’s take on finding her voice and creating space for other Black creatives to do the same.

            Briana Elmore is a Michigan-born writer, screenwriter, editor, podcast host, and social media content producer. She believes in the power of representation for everyone, with an emphasis on marginalized persons. Through her work, she aspires to humanize narratives of those that have been ignored.

            She has been the Editor in chief of two online publications: “Twenty Somethin’ and Black” and “One Choice Magazine” both targeted forwards the holistic betterment of the Black community.

            Currently, Briana hosts Creative Conversations with Briana Elmore podcasts where she interviews creatives from different backgrounds to bring forth the creative behind the art. Briana has had creative involvement in theatrical podcasts and is in the writers room for Ambition, a drama series that will be her debut screenwriting endeavor.

              • Balance Doesn't Exist with Vestavia Smith

                In this episode, we talk about capacity with Vestavia Smith, management trainee by day and serial entrepreneur by night. As a full-time employee, mother and fiance, Vestavia has taken an intentional approach to managing her time, efforts and activities in order to give her best in her personal and professional life.

                Vestavia Smith is a native of Montgomery, AL who now calls Nashville, TN home. After receiving her Bachelors of Science in Business Administration from Fisk University in 2017, she began her career in the financial services industry and continues to work full-time in the industry today.  Vestavia believes the quickest way to a raise is to start a business and has turned her passions for travel, investing, and sleep teaching into additional streams of income. After becoming a “girl mom” in September 2020, Vestavia discovered a passion for all things pediatric sleep after struggling with her own daughter's frequent night wakings when she was 7.5 months old. She completed the My Sweet Sleeper Academy training program in January 2022 and started Sleepkeeper Consulting with the goal of helping other families achieve better, healthier sleep habits and get back to enjoying the early stages of parenting.
