Welcome to season 3 of Un-Addiction, as we dive deep into the importance of rest, taking time for yourself, and the pressures of being a high-performing Black girl, with Khadi Oluwatoyin. Khadi is the founder of Sober Black Girls Club (SBGC), a 501(c)(3) collective that provides resources and support to Black girls, women, femmes, and non-binary folks practicing sobriety, in recovery, or considering it. Sober Black Girls Club was born from Khadi's need for connection with other Black girls seeking support with addiction. Khadi takes us through the complexities of being a high-performing Black girl, taking breaks while being in service, and what to do when what you need is not what you want.

Episode 20: Laura Willoughby, Club Soda

This week's episode is a recap of some conversations from seasons 1 and 2 that highlighted the impact of addiction and mental health stigma. If you've been listening for the past year, you already know substance use disorders and mental health struggles often come hand-in-hand. Even if you haven't been listening, you probably know this from personal experience. Our goal with this podcast is to lessen the impact of stigma, have vulnerable conversations, and hopefully make it easier for someone else to ask for help. There are threads of shame and stigma which span race, gender, class, sexuality, religion, and more, which is why stigma is so insidious. Seriously, if you are having a hard time overcoming a substance, reach out to us or someone you trust.

Episode 19: Recap: Pathways and Stigma

To celebrate Pride Month, we couldn't think of a better person to talk about pride and gratitude than Mrs. Kasha Davis. This episode is a re-play of Dr. Harrison's conversation with Ed Popil, AKA Mrs. Kasha Davis. Note the roles that gratitude, stigma, shame, and community played in Ed's journey.

Ed Popil, AKA Mrs. Kasha Davis, and Dr. Nzinga Harrison discuss spirituality as a key role in Ed's recovery journey, allowing him to uncover a much-needed conversation with his father. Before finding recovery, however, Ed mentions the stigmas and inaccurate beliefs about recovery he held that prevented him from finding a lifeline sooner.
