We are in seasons of transitions and changes and "Take Nothing When I Die" is no different. The biggest and greatest change: I have created a whole life form! I will be sharing more about my parenting journey this season so stay tuned. If you haven't gotten a chance to listen to episodes 1 - 7 of Season 2, take a listen and you'll hear a little bit of my pregnancy experience.

Thank you for staying on this episode experience with me. I would love to know how YOU want to see TNWID transition: a book, a documentary, a series? Hit me up! Find me on IG (@takenothingwhenidie) or Twitter (@TNWID), leave me a voicemail on Anchor (anchor.fm/tnwid) or email me: sghostonpaul@gmail.com

Now, let's get into this episode!

I am so excited to pick Season 2 back up with my amazing guest: Veronica Agard. Veronica Agard is a writer and cultural organizer at the intersections of Black identity, wellness, representation, and culture. Of Afro-Caribbean, African-American and Indigenous descent, she experiments with creative healing modalities and puts theories learned into practice. With bylines at Redefining Our Womanhood, Black Girl Magik, Life as Ceremony and Black and Well; Veronica also is the creator behind the Who Heals the Healer experience, contributes to Your Magic, and facilitates the Ancestors in Training educational project. She graduated magna cum laude from CUNY City College in 2014 and is pursuing a master of social work degree from Fordham University.

In this episode, we will be discussing:

Why Veronica feels aligned with coming out of a winter slumber and why she feels "even"
Honoring and paying homage to the phrase "Rest is Resistance"
Clarity in finding your inspiration
Ways that we hyper consume traditions by people of color
How letting go invites in new positive things to happen
The importance of Shadow work
What Veronica would put in a time capsule
