Episode 10 "THEY BOUT TO WORK ROOTS!”—Nutrition, Vitamins, Herbs, and Exercise
About this Episode
Happy Saturday, everybody! I hope yall are well.
We really do have a magician joining us, today! I swear anyone who works as a Registered Nurse, a Certified Nutrition Specialist, Health Coach, *AND* an Endocannabinoid (Google it) System Nurse Consultant *at the same time* is either related to Copperfield or walks on water for fun.
BUT, Marsha Kentish, RN, BSN, CNS, LDN, is SO down to Earth, engaging, and relatable. Trust me, I had a Blast interviewing her!
We talked about everything from the nutritional needs of our aging women, preventable diseases, vitamins/minerals/supplements, stress, popular diets, meds & midlife, and MORE!
Listen to what she has to say about the gut-brain connection, fluctuating moods, and hormone imbalances. Hmmm...
Dont forget yall sparkly red pen and notebook! Thanks SO much for ya'll support, as always.

Episode 11 So WHAT! I'm Grown: Mental Health and Arrested Development
Its like we all became unhinged one day and disqualified ourselves from actively modeling emotion regulation and healthy parenting. If you think about it, our Whole world is ill. Yup! Were all moving robotically in a trance from one trauma to the next. Every good, common sense brain cell that Father God, Himself, created is NOT so common anymore AND each of those brain cells have been replaced by an unknowingly woeful dependence on technology.
Add to that mix, a tragically broken mental healthcare system, overcrowded schools, the virtual non-existence of a morally sound, nuclear family structure AND the Heavily policed expression of free speech and emotional outreach.
What we now have is a drastic need for mental and emotional repair that supersedes damn near all available global resources and the inward retreat to clinical despair that is often unrecognizable until much later after death.
Were literally living in a George Jetson meets 1984 meets Handmaids Tale, mixed with a little (a Lot) of Behold A Pale Horse thrown in. We need help. We need understanding. We need meds. We need therapy. We need safety. WE ALL NEED HELP!!
In todays Episode 11, Fran delivers a Keynote Speech about this Arrested Development phenomenon. The literal stuck as she terms it, in a child or adolescent-like stage and a lifestyle of behaviors that are inconsistent with or inappropriate for ones current age. Um, think about the sistas in the viral fight videos from Waffle House to Walmart to Worldstar.
Fran holds our hand and walks us through reasons behind Arrested Development and how AD relates to trauma or other unresolved issues. She goes on to explain the ACES study, how a high ACE score factors into AD, and more!
Trust, Fran is the Morpheus of clinical counseling and REALLY knows her stuff! She is a living, breathing textbook of modalities from Trauma Focused CBT to Race Based Trauma treatment to Compassion Fatigue and Self-Care. WOW! Talk about a Wide Range of specialties.
Trust, Fran has perfected her vast, cradle to the grave assortment of specialties for literally ANY age group over the past 23 years. Listen to how she skillfully analyzes our Rontrise scenario and lovingly applies therapeutic interventions to help this lady we all know too well. That big age somebody who is still clubbing with an AARP card in her purse. The irresponsible one whos emotionally unregulated and fails miserably, at understanding insight insight into her own problems. Thee QUEEN of self-sabotage. God help us.
BUT, we thank God for great minds like that of Fran Harrison, LPCC. Wahoo!!! We should ALL be grateful for her contribution to healing the Diaspora :)
