In XYBM 130, I sit down with Pastor Brownlee, a Philadelphia native and entrepreneur who turned down an NFL career to answer his spiritual calling. We dive deep into healing emotional trauma, navigating grief, and the lasting impact of abandonment, particularly how mother wounds shape the lives of Black men.

Pastor Brownlee shares raw, personal stories about his journey of resilience, loss, and the emotional freedom he’s fought for as a Black man. We also discuss the challenges of overcoming the scars left by past wounds and how healing can empower future generations.

Tune in for an enlightening and powerful conversation on growth, healing, and how Black men can break generational cycles to embrace healthier futures.
