Today I have the beautiful Martina Clark, she is an Author, Activist, Educator, Grateful Aunt, and occasional Singer.
Martina Clark was the first openly HIV-positive person hired to work for UNAIDS in 1996, At the age of 28, the doctors told her she had 5 years to live. Back then we didnt know anything about this epidemic and so many lost their lives either due to shame, lack of knowledge and/or care. We have come a long way today in healthcare for HIV. With nothing to lose, Martina dove headfrist into activism.
Her book, My Unexpected Life: An International Memoir of Two Pandemics, HIV and Covid-19 follows her personal journey both emotional and physical along with her professional career after her diagnosis.
Martina got Covid-19 in early 2020 and it really did a number on her system. She is fighting and thriving throughout that too! She reflects on her long haul bout with the second pandemic (Covid) while also reflecting on her experiences, her full passport all with an in-curable disease.
She is stubborn and determined and an inspiration! While anyone who alone had the initial diagnosis would of just stayed in that diagnosis and wallowed, she got up and lived and lived she has! She subsequently worked for the United Nations system for 20 years, advocating globally for the rights of people living with HIV. Her collaborative work also led to a mandatory HIV In the Workplace program internal to the United Nations system, facilitating platforms for freer dialogue and a more supportive environment for all personnel, including LGBTQ, persons with disabilities, and other marginalized populations. Clark holds a BA in International Relations and an MFA in Creative Writing and Literature. Currently, she is an adjunct for LaGuardia Community College (part of CUNY) where she teaches English 101 and Critical Reading to NYC public high school students earning college credits early.

Marie, PhD, MBA, is the founder and CEO of Akesa Health, a startup offering a self-guided therapy app helping people transform anxiety and distress into resilience. She is a global entrepreneurial executive with 18 years experience launching tech businesses for General Electric and startups in the US, Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.
I absolutely loved her and despite the distractions of my puppy and my computer losing power, we powered through!
Forming her business in Mental Health came about after discovering some child hood trauma that she didnt know she had. Until these trauma resurfaced and derailed her career. Marie experimented and trained in a lot of therapies (talk-therapy, psychedelics, energy and holistic healing) and eventually found therapies that saved my life. She also got very interested in neuroscience, mind-body connections, holistic health and spirituality, and very frustrated with the lack of affordable and scientifically-validated mental health solutions.
She created an app "Akesa" . Our branis have innate self-healing potential, hence she founded Akesa Health, and created Akesa, an app that helps people tap into their brain's self-healing potential and transform anxiety and distress into resilience- the ability to face life's setbacks without needing a therapist.
I, myself, have downloaded the app and LOVE it.
Please reach out to Marie, our mental health is priority and do not be afraid to set boundaries, to say no and cut people out of our lives that no longer serve our peace.

On todays show, it is just me today spouting some staggering statistics on Domestic Violence.
I can't even with this...its is so heart breaking to hear and know that our legal system is broken. we need to stop the violence.
Bottom LineDespite promising it "will never happen again," in most cases, the abuser will not change, and the only way to end the abuse is for the victim to end the relationship. Unfortunately, the most dangerous time in an abusive relationship is when the victim tries to leave. That is when they are most likely to be seriously injured or even killed by the abuser, so it is important to get the help you need to safely escape harm. Homicide is one of the top 10 causes of death for women aged 20-44, and nearly half of female victims are killed by a current or former male intimate partner.
If you are in an abusive relationship, you can call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at any time of day or night to speak to someone trained to help you. The Hotline operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. All calls are confidential and anonymous, and interpreter services are available for more than 170 languages.

Welcome in Ya'll! Today my guest is the beautiful Nosheen Khan, Founding member of startups like Upwork and Signifyd, best selling author, creator 2 coaching businesses and today we are going to discuss productivity, automation and the tools to simplify your business so your not duct taping your business together
Speaking to Nosheen you see how passionate she is about where she is today and how she got here. From having to leave her Corp, good paying job to trying to find work, any work, even from her bed. She got hired to do some work and get this...it paid only $.33 cents an hour! Now, most of us would say F*%# this and jump ship but she stuck with it because it was in the field she wanted to be in knowing if she worked hard something good would come out of it. Boy did it ever.
She talks about the two startups she started, how she is continuing to create more and how she has figured out how to automate her business so, in her own words, we are not 'duct taping" our business together. Listen, we are so busy with life and work and it can be overwhelming to do all the ads, the marketing, the sales, whatever your business entails at the end of the day. We are tired man! Her system helps with that so you dont have to, and you make more money by being automated.
Nosheen certainly has faced rejections and vulnerabilty like we all have and continue to have, but she perservered and now look where she is. Its work but you have to do the work to get the reward. She became a best selling author, founded companies and built two coaching businesses! She is empowered!! And lets face it, an inspiration! If you want to learn more, reach out to Nosheen at the links below.
