Jemele Hill is one of the most fearless voices in media – an award-winning journalist, podcast host, and unapologetic truth-teller. But in this unforgettable episode of the My Legacy podcast, she opens up about the moments that shaped her long before the headlines.

Joining co-hosts Martin Luther King III, Arndrea Waters King, Marc Kielburger, and Craig Kielburger, Jemele opens up about growing up with instability caused by her mother’s addiction, the early mentors who believed in her, and the defining choice to never apologize for telling the truth, even when it meant risking it all.

Alongside her husband, Ian Wallace, Jemele also reflects on how trust and love gave her space to be vulnerable for the first time.

Unforgettable lessons include:

• How to speak up when you’re the only one in the room
• Why vulnerability is a strength – not a weakness
• The dating green flag no one talks about: curiosity without an agenda
• How to support someone through public storms
• And why your past doesn’t define you — it prepares you

If you’ve ever felt the pressure to carry it all, this conversation will remind you that real power starts with giving yourself permission to let go.
