Just Jay

Deja pulls up to Just Jay for a full-circle convo that starts in a freshman dorm and lands in grown-woman territory.

We get into criminal justice dreams, paralegal life, law school plans, grief, therapy, gender roles, our fave prof (shoutout Dr. Evans!), DC birthday chaos, and Just Jay's signature orange vibe.

In this new episode of Just Jay we talked about the behind the scenes work that goes into becoming the best version of you, the blessings awaiting us in 2025, and some of my favorite Grammys highlights! Oh, and Happy Black History Month!

This episode we sat and discussed the unfortunate fires taking place in LA, being receptive and disciplined enough to maintain the blessings you prayed for, and the ability to be yourself and not allow other opinions to sway your thought process or your love for yourself.

This episode is dedicated to me continuing the consistency, getting back into the skill of conversation. This week we talk about the guilt that sometimes comes with leaving people and things behind, putting your ideas into action, and how to navigate mentally when doing so.

What changes do you need to make to be a better person in 2025? In this episode we talk about the changes that come with a new year, setting boundaries, and giving yourself grace when it comes to your growth. To a new season, a new year, and new growth!

This new season I am excited to showcase my growth and my new found understanding for life. In this episode we talk about election results, grieving relationships that no longer serve you, and the unfortunate passing of my grandmother Hilary. To those who are back for another season, fasten your seatbelt.

On the season 7 finale, we discuss all of life's changes and the acceptance of the relationships and circumstances around you.

This episode is long overdue and anticipated for me. This is my first collaboration in over a year since my last collaboration with Ms. TeeTalk. This conversation embodied the same sisterhood and empowerment as that one and I am so happy to finally share it with you. Enjoy this conversation between me and another beautiful and smart woman, Ashley.

This week we expand on my extremely close experiences with death and grief. This episode was important for me to not only film but release so soon, because there is always someone who can relate. This one is for them.

This episode highlights Just Jay's 3 year anniversary on air, the highs and lows of life after graduate school, and other worldly issues. A good ending of the summer season.

After 2 months of silence, I have so much to cover and talk about in this episode. From the bad to the good, we cover it all. I am able to show in realtime what my healing journey has taught me and am able to reflect throughout the entirety of the episode. While being funny, the show also covers serious political and world topics that it is important to know about. I hope you take at least one thing away from this episode!

This episode is a recap of my 24th birthday and all the things I plan to do coming forward. After a much needed vacation and another year of life, I feel better than ever and ready to work even harder.

Happy Taurus season to all my bulls! As we catch up on the last three months, this episode reflects a tremendous amount of self reflection and boundary setting. I’m learning that I can say very little, and still get my point across. As my reintroduction back into the season, before I turn 24 I wish for a clear mind and clear conscious. This episode was special and I hope you like it. How have you been?

This episode is of myself and New York artist Trendy coming together to discuss our crafts and our love for the talent on Long Island.

After a much needed break from podcasting, I am back. 2024 will be the year of success. Dive into this heartfelt conversation to see where I've been and what I've been up to.

Welcome back to another season of your favorite podcast! Season 7 is so personal to me. I'm ready to take my podcast to the next level and show a new level of vulnerability and creativity. This season premiere is to catch you guys up on what's been going on in my life in the past few months.

Helloooooooo! Here is the season finale of season 6. Where we speak about where I've been, how I've been healing, and all the events of the summer. Long overdue, but there's no better time than now

Myself and the wonderful Tiana Heath aka Ms. TeeTalk finally got to have a conversation about being women in media, running our own businesses and the all the things we've learned in womanhood. We love to see genuine queens coming together to support each other, get to know each other more, and connect with the audience. This episode embodied just that.

This episode explains the unexpected death of my cane corse Bane. If you know me, you know how much he meant to me. And the feeling was definitely mutual. This season in life and on the show things have been so hard for me, and I have handled each obstacle gracefully. So I decided I was finally ready to speak on things. I hope you guys enjoy this raw and very emotional one. Get the tissues! To Bane, thank you for everything you did for me. I will love you always and forever.

This solo episode reflected on navigating through the ups and downs of life and trying to remain positive and optimistic for the future. It takes a lot of hardship and time to finally learn that you can get through any situation with a positive mindset. Don't isolate yourself thinking you're the only one who experiences hard times, we all have our moments.

Building on the topics of transparency and experience, which are the two most important factors of this podcast I spoke about my life this week. The things we go through as podcasters can always be used for content, but I want mine to be used as motivation and for the purpose of continuing to tell my story. To anybody who hasn't felt like themselves lately, but still doing their thing to keep moving forward; this one is for you!

This episode is me and my closest guy friends, who are also other visionaries and creatives who are turning 23 this year and doing what they can to stay motivated. They just dropped a new single together called "Let's Have a Party," stream it now on all platforms! IG: @e4k_zah and @woe4k

Lay and I sat down and had a creative conversation about our brands Just Jay and Wonac. Two unique individuals with different ideas having a real conversation based on the experiences we’ve gone through along our creative journey. We spoke about NY fashion, music, building a brand in your 20’s and more.IG: @_wonac_

I'm backkkkkkk! After taking my time to heal and isolate to regain my motivation. I hope you guys are ready to finish the season strong. Did you miss me?

This episode is me expressing how I am learning from my relationships and from the things I experience in life in general. Being aware of the way you respond to things is important. That may take a while to learn, but in order to develop in relationships and friendships you must. I hope you take something away from this gem.

Long Island artist Hollywood P and I sit down to speak about his new project "Street Values," his goals as an artist, and his journey with fatherhood. We gave each other our well deserved flowers and had a great conversation with different, real perspectives.

This year we're setting boundaries. We are in therapy, working on ourselves, while also creating the life we've always dreamed of. Thank you for coming back for another season of my show, we're turning it up a notch with this one. Happy new year!

What are you doing to heal? After a mental break from podcasting to regroup and recharge I'm giving you guys a season finale to wrap up season 5 as I prepare for another amazing new season. 5 seasons of pure realness and conversations that we all could learn from. Just Jay has become my favorite thing that I do and I hope you guys enjoy it too. See you soon for season 6 DECEMBER 30TH!

On the eleventh day of the eleventh month of the year in the year 2022. This is a powerful day to manifest your dreams and speak your dreams into existence. I speak on overcoming lack of motivation and the importance of consistency in this episode. Being aware of how you treat others in their "moments" is also a key topic. Happy manifesting!

For this weeks Halloween episode we illustrate the importance of representing your business well and accurately. I speak about my recent interview with Wreckless Reya (@wreck_it_reya) and what that taught me as a podcaster. Also reflecting on the response I got from the men on last weeks episode.HAPPY HALLOWEEN! 🕷

AS A MAN, DO YOU HAVE A SAFE SPACE? This episode highlights mental health in black men and in black communities. Men are very good at hiding how they feel, so it is up to us to build that safe space for them to connect and express themselves. This podcast supports safe spaces for men.

This episode is a collaboration with Kyle the Jukebox, a fellow creative and amazing interviewer. He also manages as an artist named Kaylan Arnold.

Jomaira and I had a conversation about the concept of submitting as a woman and our journeys through life as black women. A long overdue conversation.

This episode talks about the power of women and the importance of giving out what it is that you want to attract. As women, we let our negative experiences with men taint our definition of love sometimes. Here is how not to do that and how to show yourself the same love you want to receive.

Welcome back to another season of Just Jay! This season premiere I had a dope conversation with Quey Billyons, a Long Island artist.

Welcome to season 5 of your favorite podcast.IG: @queybillyons

This episode is me and my close friend Angelo talking about our struggles and accomplishments regarding our mental health, together and individually. One of my longest episodes, but the most comfortable I've ever been in a conversation.

My 1 year anniversary of podcasting and building Just Jay to be what it is. I am so proud of this creation. I hope I have made someone smile, given someone advice or helped someone deal with their hardships. Next year and every year after will be better and better. Thank you for tuning in. Love, Jay
