Success has to do with the state of the soul, the balance of relationships, and leaving things better than when when we got here, says the wonderfully talented poet, author, creator, and event host Amena Brown- who is my guest today.

Our conversation spans the bold and wide topics of her book: "How to Fix a Broken Record: Thoughts on Vinyl Records, Awkward Relationships, and Learning to Be Myself", and her work as a creator and entrepreneur, perceptions of God, issues of success and identity, her broadcast work, the "Her" podcast that gives a platform to the inspiring stories and lives of women of color, finding powerful ways to say "yes" and "no" to find our best path, and the power of donuts and cupcakes.
