Ep 18: Power, Protest & Peace of Mind: Redistricting, HBCU Resistance, and Raising Mentally Healthy Children

This week on Life More Abundantly, Drs. Eboni Haynes and Tynisha Camae Drennon get into what everybody should be talking about: how power shows up in our bodies, our communities, and our futures.We break down the recent Supreme Court decision that many experts warn could weaken the Voting Rights Act - and what that could mean for Black representation, redistricting, and the long game beyond this election season. Then we head to South Carolina State University, where students reminded everybody what collective action looks like by protesting a commencement speaker tied to anti-DEI politics.In our Community Calendar, we center Children’s Mental Health Awareness Day with real talk on what Black kids are carrying, why diagnosis often comes too late, what signs to look for, and how we normalize support without shame.And in the Herbal Tea segment, we sip on the cost of “showing up” (Simone Biles’ $22K red carpet bill) and what it reveals about money, pressure, and peace of mind - plus the Megan Thee Stallion + Klay Thompson breakup chatter, and why “cheat girl summer” is not the move.
