October 30, 2019 12:12 - 1 hour - 52 MB

Cancer. It sucks, and more and more young professional women of color are being diagnosed at rapid rates. Unfortunately due to the high cost of medications, the overall cost of living, those afflicted are still forced to hustle and bustle in the workplace.  This week I have the pleasure of bringing on my dear friend and past FREEda Woman of the month, Jaymie Bowles.

Ep. 59: Single Black Women and Adoption: A Conversation With Author Nefertiti Austin

October 23, 2019 15:40 - 1 hour - 49.8 MB

Motherhood. It is something that most women want to experience at some point in their life.  The older we get, the more that desire deepens. Unfortunately for most women, the prospect of finding a decent man to procreate with is very slim. Dating in 2019 is a national crisis, leaving many smart, educated women of color wondering if they will enjoy the journey of motherhood. This week, I have the pleasure of speaking with Nefertiti Austin, author of the recently published book "Motherhood S...

Ep. 58: It's Just Emotions! Check Yourself Before You Reck Yourself!

October 16, 2019 15:30 - 30 minutes - 26.1 MB

In the words of Destiny's Child "It's just emotion taken me over..." (I would continue on with the lyrics but they don't apply here). But I digress. Emotion is a powerful thing. Emotions can take you from zero to 100 real quick. Emotions are a necessary part of life because they help us communicate with one another. But when emotions go unchecked, when we let them get out of control, they can be the cause of our downfall. A simple misunderstanding or lack of communication can then be escal...

Ep.56: Black Girl Scientist! A Conversation With Dr. Stacia Nicholson

October 02, 2019 12:11 - 59 minutes - 49.2 MB

#Blackgirlmagic is in full effect! When you think about the workplace, most of us imagine an office setting with a desk, computer, chairs, cubicles, water cooler, conference rooms, printing machines, loads of paper work etc. We usually think corporate, or government. We tend to think, lawyer, social worker, teacher.  Well today, we are putting the focus on our sisters in science. This week I have the pleasure of talking with Dr. Stacia Nicholson, PHd. Stacia is a real scientist who recentl...

Happy Wednesday Tribe! This week I am talking with my dear friend and staunch supporter Julia Cenatus!

Ep. 53: Free Your Mind and the Rest Will Follow

September 11, 2019 13:12 - 27 minutes - 23.5 MB

I think I’m certainly showing my age by the title of this week’s episode but En Vogue certainly was on to something. On today’s episode I talk about non-conformity and how it is ok to go against the grain. For those of us in our thirties and beyond, it is so easy to find ourselves doing things that we honestly don’t want to do, or engaging in things we can careless about.  This can be anything from accepting a role at work that everyone thinks you should accept but you yourself know that i...

August 28, 2019 11:42 - 1 hour - 215 MB

On this episode of FREEda's World, I am speaking with the amazing Marjorie Vail! Aside from being my spirit animal, she is also a Haitian sista! Marjorie forayed into the pageant world in her mid-thirties but has been enjoying it ever since. Her belief is that pageantry can be a great way to promote and bring awareness to a cause and not just about what is on the contestant’s surface.    Marjorie had the honor of being Mrs. New York International 2015 where she used her reign to furthe...

Ep. 51: The Importance of Women of Color in Career Services

August 21, 2019 16:05

Think back to that time you were in undergrad or grad school. Do you remember your advisor? Was your advisor a person of color? Better yet, was your advisor a woman of color? Did you feel connected to your advisor? Do you feel as if they prepared you for the workforce? If I had to guess, I would say that many of you did not have an advisor who was a woman of color at your college or university campus. And although most of us ventured off to meaningful careers, we would have appreciated a l...

Ep. 50: Self Publishing 101 For the Working Woman. Feat. Sheina Cenatus

August 14, 2019 14:16 - 1 hour - 54.2 MB

I know that you have all heard the phrase "we all have one good book inside of us". It is true, especially as women of color. Our experiences are rich and they need to be shared. Our knowledge, our wisdom, these are gifts that should not be taken to the grave.  I have heard many say (I am part of the many), one day, I will write a book. But why can't one day be today? Well, one reason is life right? We are out here hustling trying to make it. Working countless hours to pay the bills and li...

Ep. 49: Talking Politics in the Workplace

August 07, 2019 14:18 - 20 minutes - 17.4 MB

Unless you are living under a rock, I am sure you are aware that we are in the thick of election 2020 season. With the presidential debates heating up and the current president acting up and showing out, one can't help but to engage in political discussions.  I mean everyone has something to say about the state of our political climate. I am all for commentary, but political commentary is something different. That type of engagement can get you cut in these streets. So what about the wor...

Ep.48: Don't Just Show Up, Show Out!

August 01, 2019 12:13 - 32 minutes - 27.1 MB

On this week's episode I address one of the topics discussed on last week's episode, work anxiety, fear due to lack of job security. (that's right you have to go back and listen lol) In this economy, there is no such thing as job security, regardless of what sector you are in. However, despite our fears, we must still report to work. We have bills to pay and passion projects to fund. Living in this kind of fear is certainly unhealthy and to be quite honest, who wants to go to work with a lum...

Ep. 47: Living My Best Life! Or Am I?

July 24, 2019 12:03 - 38 minutes - 32.4 MB

Some of you maybe asking yourselves, "where did Ritha go?" On this episode, I talk about where I have "been", my current mental space and being in the "dark" place. We all have our moments where we struggle with self acceptance and belonging. I think that it is important for people to be transparent about their journeys. I will always say this, Instagram is a liar, and although many of us are not actually stunting and fronting on the gram, it’s all about perception. That picture of you at th...

Ep. 45: Be Still and Wait For Deliverance

June 26, 2019 20:09 - 36 minutes - 30.7 MB

On this episode of FREEda's World, I talk about the importance of having faith and staying the course.  When things get tough, most people's knee jerk reaction is to fix the problem. But not all problems are meant for you to fix. Sometimes your troubles come to make you strong and all we need to do is hold on.  For the last few months I have been on the struggle bus. It got bad at one point, and I responded how I normally respond, with my tools ready to fix. But this time I couldn't fix my...

Ep. 44: A conversation with Professor Tanya K. Hernandez on Discrimination, Multiracials and Civil Rights

"In her new book, Professor Hernandez explores the question of how to pursue racial equality in a growing multiracial world. The growth of a mixed race population has led some commentat...

Ep. 43: The Return to Corporate

June 05, 2019 17:07 - 53 minutes - 44.3 MB

This week we are discussing returning to corporate america after leaving to pursue your passion. Over the last few years we have heard hundreds of stories of women leaving their corporate jobs to pursue full-time entrepreneurship.  These stories are both motivational and inspirational. But what happens when business becomes slow? When priorities and focus change? What happens when you are forced to return to corporate? On today’s episode, I am joined by the lovely Lucha Cineas- St-Fleu...

Ep. 42: When Motivation Backfires

May 29, 2019 16:32 - 24 minutes - 21.2 MB

Have you ever seen a motivational story that made you second guess your whole existence? Like the story of the young boy who was homeless and was admitted into 8 Ivy league schools and received over $500,00 in scholarships? As great as this story is, doesn't a part of you sit back and think, man, what was I doing with my life? I had a roof over my head a car, parents... What was my excuse? I am sure that most of us have had tis thought at some point. On this episode I will talk about the y...

Ep. 40: How To Be Present At Work While Dealing With Loss

May 15, 2019 13:27 - 56 minutes - 52.8 MB

This week we are talking about loss. Many of of us have experienced loss at some point in our life. It is not easy and depending on who you lost, the impact on your life can be debilitating.  I lost my grandmother in 2013. she raised me as her own. She was my everything. I literally never conceived a life without her. So when I lost her, my world literally fell apart. I was broken and if I am being honest, I still am broken.  Over the years the grief of losing my grandmother, has really ...

Ep. 39: Stop Thinking Like An Imposter

May 08, 2019 12:56 - 47 minutes - 45.1 MB

This week I am joined by my good friend Jellisa Joseph. Jellisa was recently nominated for a prestigious award. She was so excited for the nomination. However, instead of basking in excitement, the first thought that came to her mind was "do I deserve this".  This form of self doubt is very common amongst professional women of color. We do it all the time! But why? Why do we have such an issue with accepting accolades and awards? Why can't our first inclination be, "wow I did it! I knew I ...

Ep. 37: The art of no

April 24, 2019 14:55 - 42 minutes - 39.9 MB

FREEda Fam! This week I am talking about the art of no. Often times we do this thing where we say yes to everything. We say yes to more work, we say yes to our bosses, to our co-workers, our friends family, we never say no. Some times you just have to say NO! Why? because you are not a machine. Saying yes all of the time has consequences. It can hinder your ability to complete your given tasks. It can cause you to burn out. It can make you sick.  With all of that being said, I know it is...
