Syd may be on vacation, but The Sugar Free Podcast is not! This week, enjoy a "rewind" of the Season 2 Premiere: How to Make Peace with my Body featuring Dr. Tangie Grate.

This episode is a love letter to women. A letter to remind us that 1) our bodies, our weights and our shapes ARE healthy; and 2) the current standards of weight, beauty and wellness weren't created with our bodies in mind.

Join Syd and special guest, mother, wellness coach, pharmacist and podcast co-host, Dr. Tangie Grate  as they discuss how to make peace with and love on your body during EVERY phase of your wellness journey (otherwise known as life).

Through her work as a wellness coach, Tangie is on a mission to help women feel confident in their current bodies , by helping them to develop sustainable habits that promote self-love and weight loss.

When is the last time you prayed? About 32% of U.S. adults said they seldom or never pray (up from 18% in 2007) with 29% of U.S. adults reporting they had no religious affiliation (an increase of 6 percentage points from 2016), with Millennials leading that shift. American adults are connecting less and less with religion and by extension the Church. For those interested in seeking both, how do you navigate that without compromising your contemporary beliefs on diversity, equity and inclusion?

This week, Syd sits down with Millennial church leaders, Joslyn Henderson and Demarius Newsome, for an uplifting conversation on the necessity (or lack thereof) of Church for younger generations in S4 Ep8 How to Navigate Modern Spirituality in the Church.

Minister Joslyn Henderson is the Director of Worship Arts at a multicultural, multigenerational, inclusive church in Northeast Washington D.C. As a nationally celebrated gospel singer and worship leader, she infuses her performative ministry with her scholarship on Black sacred music.

Demarius Newsome in an Atlanta based attorney and worship leader who serves in multiple capacities of ministry and leadership at the Ray of Hope Christian Church, where he constantly seeks to understand “why” and “how” we do church.

If you’re dating in 2023, chances are you are leveraging the internet or some manner of technology to date people outside of your “safety bubble.” Meaning, you are dating people that neither you nor anyone you know can vouch for or verify the background, history or character of your potential dates.  

Technology can be a very effective tool in finding love, but love is not the only thing that daters are finding online. Online daters, especially young women, are also finding frustration and in some cases harassment, assault or death with a reported 16,000 abductions, 100 murders and thousands of rapes being committed annually by online predators.  

So, how do we protect ourselves while dating outside of our safety bubbles? BY DOING OUR RESEARCH!!! Join Syd for Season 4 Episode 7 as she sits down with private investigator, Connie B. Ernest, for an informative discussion on how to leverage the internet to properly vet potential love interests.

Connie B. Ernest is a Private Investigator in Atlanta, GA. Connie owns and operates CBE Investigations Inc, where they offer services to those who are in need of clarity, peace of mind and closure.

Have you ever experienced more than a friendly attraction to another woman? I mean you don’t just like her, you feel a little quiver run through your body every time you think about her? Well, you’re not alone!!

The average person is coming out in their teens and early 20’s which can make coming out or exploring your sexual identity as a woman in your 30’s intimidating. But, it is never too late to embrace your authentic self and research suggests that it is perfectly normal and healthy to question and explore your sexual orientation (i.e. your sexuality) well into your late 30’s and early 40’s.

Join Syd this week for Season 4 Episode 5 as she sits down with attorney and LGBTQIA+ advocate, Kim Daily, Esq. for an extraordinary conversation regarding Kim’s journey to come out and embrace her identity as a Lesbian woman in her 30’s.
