Summer 2020 forced the world to confront racial injustice that's been prevalent in the black community. A year later, what's different? This week, we're visiting another special episode from our archives. Minister, psychologist, and educator, Dr. Thema joins Jeannie for an in-depth look on the effects of lasting trauma experienced in the Black community and how to even begin to address it. Dr. Thema enlightens us on how those who've experienced racial discrimination can live and move through the trauma they've experienced, how allies can transform their stagnant guilt into actionable change, and also how to know to sever a relationship with someone in your life who doesn't take accountability for their racism. Plus, Dr. Thema reminds us how emotional transparency is contagious and creates space for others to open up and why it's so important to acknowledge racial gaslighting.

It's time to revisit this amazing episode!

Looking in the mirror and loving what you see can be challenging! That's why Jeannie Mai has invited professional psychotherapist and registered dietician, Dr. Supatra Tovar onto the show to discuss how to celebrate your body through practicing self-compassion and mindfulness. First, Dr. Tovar fills the fam in on what she calls the "hidden disorder" of body dysmorphia and how to combat lookism and weightism, while Jeannie discusses her own triumphs over her own body dysmorphia. Dr. Tovar will also teach methods of breaking negative thought patterns and even walks Jeannie (and you!) through a mini-live meditation to become more aware of the thoughts that fill your mind and how to curate your brain feed!

Introducing Fighting for LGBTQ Rights in Kenya from The Hidden Economics of Remarkable Women (HERO). Follow the show: The Hidden Economics of Remarkable Women (HERO)Homosexuality is illegal in Kenya, as it is in more than half of African countries. But public attitudes have begun to shift. According to Pew Research Center data from 2002, only 1 percent of Kenyan respondents said society should accept homosexuality. As of 2020, 14 percent believed homosexuality should be accepted.
On today’s episode of the Hidden Economics of Remarkable Women, we follow the key people driving this change. Reporter Eunice Maina interviews women and nonbinary LGBTQ activists such as Marylize Biubwa, the co-founder of Queer Republic, and Ivy Werimba, a communications officer at Galck+, a coalition of 16 membership-based LGBTQ+ organizations from across Kenya. Then host Reena Ninan speaks with Eric Gitari, the co-founder of the National Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission in Kenya. His litigation has helped bring recent LGBTQ policy victories.
The Hidden Economics of Remarkable Women is supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the Roberta Buffett Institute for Global Affairs at Northwestern University.
