The Diaspora Table episodes
- Healing Through Gardening | What Grows After Loss
What can grow after life changes everything?
Pull up a chair with LaDawndra “Pebbles” Robbs, founder of Pebbles Plants, for a deeply personal conversation about loss, family, self-care—and the unexpected healing that can take root when we begin nurturing something new.
From plants and purpose to health and the ways our bodies sometimes demand that we pay attention, this conversation moves naturally between laughter, reflection and a few PA-C teaching moments along the way.
Healing Through Gardening: What Grows After Loss is a story about tending to more than plants. Sometimes, while caring for what is growing around us, we discover what is still growing within us.
Continue the Conversation
At The Diaspora Table, we believe every story has the power to inspire healing, connection, and new beginnings.

What happens when a lifelong educator transforms her love of teaching, gardening, and storytelling into a world of imagination for children?
In this special bonus episode of The Diaspora Table, we welcome Barbara J. Satterfield, lifetime educator, LAUSD, children's author, and the creative mind behind Wendy's Wonderful World.
Drawing on more than four decades of educational experience, Barbara shares the inspiration behind Wendy, a spirited gardener whose autumn adventures invite young readers to explore nature, curiosity, kindness, and the wonders of growing things.
We explore how Wendy's Wonderful World connects storytelling with STEAM education—Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics—encouraging children to discover the relationship between gardening, seasons, nutrition, environmental awareness, and everyday learning.
We'll also introduce audiences to another of Barbara's imaginative creations, Detective Super Skunk, whose adventures we'll explore more deeply in a future conversation.
And there's something special growing beyond the pages! Join us as we celebrate the upcoming Wendy's Wonderful World book release and signing on Friday, October 30, 2026, at Vacancy Avenue Studio A in Inglewood, California.
Because at The Diaspora Table, we believe the stories we nurture today help cultivate the minds and possibilities of tomorrow.

What would go down if the whole family pulled up to the table?
Welcome to The Diaspora Table, a Vision Harmony Voices podcast hosted by Monica R. Guillemin, J.D., PA-C.
This is where family, culture, health, history, faith—and the things we don't always say out loud—finally get a seat at the table.
Through candid conversations with family, friends, healthcare professionals, educators, authors and other voices from across the diaspora, we explore what we inherit, what we carry, what we question—and what we can choose to pass forward.

About The Diaspora Table
From the publisher's feed
Hosted by Monica Guillemin, J.D., PA-C—a clinician, scientist, published author and founder of Vision Harmony®—the podcast brings family, friends, professionals, community voices and…
fascinating people from across the diaspora to one table for candid conversations, sometimes wonderfully unpredictable. Discussions on family and ancestry, health and wellness, culture and community, relationships and family conflict, caregiving, money and inheritance, law and legacy, faith, history, science and technology, books, travel and the changing world around us.
Sometimes the conversation begins with one subject and ends somewhere no one expected. A family story can uncover history. A health experience can become a teaching moment. A disagreement can open a conversation about generations, culture or fairness. And a journey across the world can remind us how much our stories intersect.
With roots in the African American experience and branches reaching across cultures and continents, The Diaspora Table creates space for perspectives that may differ—but deserve to be heard.
Some conversations are joyful. Some are difficult. Some are educational. And some are the conversations families have avoided for generations. Because the stories we inherit matter. The knowledge we share matters.
And every family is still becoming.
