218 Radical Self-Care with Babsy Sinandale

On the Well Woman Show this week, I talk to Babsy Sinandile, a Transformation Coach, Speaker, Wellness Event curator, and the founder of Blak Gold Wellness Lounge, a safe online space curated with Black and Brown millennial folx in mind. Sinandile focuses on identifying and reversing mindset blocks that stem from years of generational trauma, through her signature Undoing Method™. As a self-proclaimed self-care strategist with a background in community health, she helps her people take excellent care of mind, body, and soul through group and 1:1 coaching, educational and healing workshops, as well as inspirational social media content. She is a mother of two amazing girls, loves Salsa dancing and karaoke, and indulges in an expensive hobby as a recording singer/songwriter.

On the show we discuss:

– What Radical Self Care is

– How taking care of ourselves can be a form of resistance

– and the importance of healing the generation trauma in the black and brown communities.

This episode is part of the #podcastersforjustice campaign.

217 Just Giovanna: Celebrate the Little Things (and the Big!)

What does it mean to celebrate? Is it something you do when you think you “deserve” a reward? Is it something you do and then regret it later or the next day? Do you save celebrations for “big” events or achievements?

On the Well Woman Show this week I’ll be sharing ten ways to celebrate without breaking the bank or indulging in unhealthy behavior.

216 In Conversation: How Black, Indigenous and Women of Color are Navigating Anti-racism (Part Three with Tamara Thorpe and Giovanna Rossi)

On the Well Woman Show this week, I share part three in a series of conversations with black, indigenous and women of color colleagues and friends, and together we explore anti-racism and racial justice – what it means not only in the big picture but how our daily lives are impacted, what we’re reading, what we’re doing and where we go from here.

This week, I’m in conversation with my colleague Tamara Thorpe, and we explore racial justice from our unique perspectives and lived experiences. Tamara is best known as the Millennials Mentor and is a recognized thought-leader in next-generation leadership. She is the founder of Real Leadership, a dynamic and compassionate approach to leadership, creating culturally smart and inclusive leaders.

This special series on anti-racism is part of the #podcastersforjustice campaign.

We are podcasters united to condemn the tragic murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and many many others at the hands of police. This is a continuation of the systemic racism pervasive in our country since its inception, and we are committed to standing against racism in all its forms.

We believe that to be silent is to be complicit.

We believe that Black lives matter.

We believe that Black lives are more important than property.

We believe that we have a responsibility to use our platforms to speak out against this injustice whenever and wherever we are witnesses to it.

In creating digital media we have built audiences that return week after week to hear our voices, and we will use our voices to speak against anti-blackness and police brutality, and we encourage our audiences to be educated, engaged, and to take action.
