On the last episode of Real Chicks Rock! Presents Real Discussions: I had a wonderful conversation with Sha’ria Thomas.  Sharia has been a lifestyle consultant, mental health therapist, and certified life coach for ten years. She is passionate about her work and wants to help people, and it shows.  In our discussion, we talked about indicators, triggers, self-care, and what support looks like. There’s nothing to be ashamed of or embarrassed about. The help that one needs is available. Finding the right counselor or therapist may take a minute, but don’t give up. Special Thanks to my guest Shar'ia.  Until next time, Be We’ll, Take Care and continue to…#ROCKon  

It’s always an honor and pleasure to converse with legendary people. On this episode, my guest was DJ Rasta Root.  Indeed, DJ Rasta Root has made it, and he credits the love and support of his parents, his college roommates, and some really dope friends. He has experienced some FIRSTS since he was born (Thanks Mom). Finally, a guy who thirsts for learning and achieving his goals has put him in the right places. Hip Hop got his attention, started to quench his thirst, and taught him some things at the same time. Learning to master mixing and blends, as well as paying attention to the crowd, got him in some circles that, to this day, DJ Rasta Root is humbled by how it all came together. However, his meeting Phife from the legendary Hip Hip Group, A Tribe Called Quest, is the one that resonates with him the most. Not only did Roots become his DJ and producer, but, more importantly, his friend. Sharing stories about their culture and love for music allowed these guys to connect for 18 years. As we reflect on losing another great Dave Jolicoeur, aka Trugoy The Dove, aka Plug Two, from De La Soul, it continues to humble DJ Rasta Root as he was alongside those that have made contributions to moving the Hip Hop culture. Thanks to my guest DJ Rasta Root. One of the good ones…FOR REAL! A special thanks for curating Face Off Fridays here in Atlanta. It feels like home to us Hip Hop heads. Until next time, take care, be well, and continue to… #ROCKon

I had the sheer delight of talking with Shannon McCollum on Real Chicks Rock!™ Presents Real Discussions. Shannon is a self-taught photographer who has mastered his craft as a professional tour photographer with over 30 years of experience.    His ability to bring to life the images he’s captured of some legendary personalities is nothing short of phenomenal. His portfolio includes President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. Coretta Scott King, DL Hughley, and Erykah Badu, to name a few. But, he had a fantastic example from his father, a retired photojournalist who gave him his first camera, lenses, and film.    #Atlanta #BlkCreatives #BlackExcellence #EmpoweringMen #EmpoweringWomen #ROCkon #RealChicksRock #RealChicksRockChucks #RCR #RealDiscussions #StatusNetwork #LyveTV #Media #LiveStreaming  #RadioShow #RadioShowHost #TalkRadio #YouTube #YouTubeChannel #YouTubeCommunity #YouTubeVideo #YouTubeVideos #YoutubersofInstagram

I had a wonderful conversation on this episode with Julius Spates, The Mad Thinker. Julius grew up with music and wanted to share it with everyone. So, at a young age, he had an idea to throw a party and get 500 people to attend. The party exceeded expectations, with over 600 people in attendance.

On this episode, I had the pleasure of talking with special return guest Adrienne Allende as she discussed living with Lupus. Adrienne Allendene, the owner of Aces Custom Clothing, was diagnosed with Lupus at 31 after going to the E.R. It turned into a seven-week stay during which she suffered from kidney failure and lung problems. She also needed chemotherapy, had a blood transfusion, and had heart and liver problems. After being told she had five years to live because of complications in 2006, 14 years later, not only did she survive, she is thriving! Adrienne continues to be a staunch advocate for those dealing with Lupus. Her voice and the voice of others are so important.  #AmazonMusic  #ApplePodcasts #Atlanta #BlkCreatives #BlackExcellence #BlackWomen #Crochet #Designer #AcesCustomClothing #Entrepreneurship #iHeartRadio #Lupus #LupusAwareness #LupusDontHaveUs #LupusWarrior #MakersGonnaMake #Media #StatusNetwork #LyveTV #ROCKOn #RCR #RealChicksRock #RealDiscussions #RadioShow #Media #Lifestylepodcast #NonProfitOrganization #Podcast #Podcaster #PodcastersofInstagram #Podcastlife #ShePodcasts #SupportBrownPodcasts #Spotify

In this week’s episode, I spoke with Dres Tha Beatnik about a fitting topic: Follow The Hat.  We followed his journey from growing up in Philly to going to Clark Atlanta, living in New York, dancing on Def Comedy Jam, and moving back to Atlanta.
