The Own The Table Podcast

In this episode of The Own The Table Podcast we discuss communication in the home. Particularly, in the black community. We also discuss how the condition of the world has stricken many homes with overbearing fear and how that influences how we navigate communication as a community. How the influence of that fear has affected parent-child relationships as well as our character and friendships long term.

Often times we deny our innate creative identity. At times, this can be due to social constructs of what we may “think” it means to be creative, social suppression, or oftentimes self-doubt. During this episode of The Own The Table Podcast, we discuss with “mega creative,” Steven J.L. what it feels like to be creative. We also discuss how our daily experiences, spirituality, ability to love, and upbringing influence our creative flow.

This episode was very sentimental to both of the hosts, Kayla and Alyn, as this explored the depths of the world's best-kept process- grief. We discuss our personal experience in the storm of grief, how others affected us, and what we learned throughout the experiences. We speak from experience, not an authoritative position. Our goal is to transparent while still protecting the experience and feelings of our loved ones and listeners. We hope you enjoyed this raw conversation at the table.
