Lauren LaRosa returns from Ghana with a renewed sense of purpose, pride, and clarity — breaking down how the trip reshaped her view of Black history, power, and possibility. She unpacks Dolce’s “Girl Get Up” as her official anthem of 2026, the industry backlash surrounding Black women in success, and why colorism and gatekeeping still dominate the conversation.

Plus, Lauren covers the dismissed $5M lawsuit between Mary J. Blige and Misa Hylton with an exclusive statement, and delivers the latest updates in the disturbing Nick Reiner case — including his attorney stepping down and what that could mean moving forward.

This episode is about legacy, resilience, truth, and refusing to shrink in a world that profits from your doubt.
