Figuring Out Class Reunions (And Why They Can Make Us Feel Insecure AF)

My 15-year college reunion was supposed to be this month. But the pandemic happened, and it was canceled/postponed (?), and truthfully, I am a little relieved.

Figuring Out How to Cope with Racial Trauma and Stress

Racial trauma, or race-based stress, is the psychological and physiological distress people of color suffer in reaction to experiences of racism, discrimination, and microaggressions. Such experiences include witnessing violence against another person of color (e.g., the video of George Floyd’s murder). Black people are more exposed to racism and discrimination than any other ethnic or racial group. In this episode of Figure Out Your Life podcast, I discuss racial trauma and share 10 ways to cope with race-based stress.

Figuring Out What Not to Do After the Quarantine and Lockdown Ends

what not to do when the quarantine and lockdown ends

Pandemic lockdown restrictions are easing across the US and around the world at varying degrees.

Even as lockdown restrictions loosen, there's still much we can do to slow the spread of the virus and prevent a second wave. In this episode of Figure Out Your Life podcast, I share 6 things not to do as outside reopens.
