This is the story of Aria Joy Burch-Senser – a beautiful, talented and happy young girl who will be forever frozen at age 13. Suicide is the second leading cause of death for individuals 10-24. We don’t talk to our kids enough about mental health and suicide. They are issues shrouded by stigma, and not talking about them with the young people in our lives is a major contributing factor to the statistics. Ms. Danielle sits down with mom and social worker Brittani Senser to have a conversation about youth mental health and suicide.A transcript of this episode is available here.Do You Care Now?National Alliance on Mental IllnessSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/help-a-human-out.

In our final episode of Black Story Month, we asked our Black listeners, coworkers, friends and family to send in a voice memo answering three questions: 1. What is your favorite thing about Black culture? 2. If you had the chance, would you ever give up being Black? 3. What does Black excellence mean to you and how do you embody it? This special episode is a collection of stories from all over the country — including two little girls (who call Danielle mom) learning about their own Black girl magic.For a transcript of this episode, click here.Show Notes:Still Kickin Sessions on unlearning racismThe Black businesses featured in this episode: Civic Saint, Gigi’s Flair Emporium, A Freeman’s Place Counseling, and Kismet of KingsFollow on Instagram: @hahopodcast @msdanielleferrentino @mrjross @lifebytosin @tanishanichole Shop Our Sponsor:Civic Saint - specifically designed to bring you joy and root your determination as we strive for a just, equitable world.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/help-a-human-out.

“Can I touch your hair?” “You don’t talk Black.” “You’re pretty for a Black girl.” These are all examples of microaggressions — nasty little comments that get said to Black women every single day and that add up to major trauma. Being a Black woman in modern America is anything but easy. This week, Ms. Danielle is joined by friend and radio personality Tanisha Nichole to talk about microaggressions, how you can recognize them, and how you can help stop them from causing harm.A transcript of this episode is available here.

The stats don’t lie: Racial inequality in the health care field is a real problem. How did we get to this point? And what do we do going forward?

What makes a family? It’s not just one mom, one dad, 2.5 kids and miscellaneous pets. And when it comes to blending families, you’re also blending their own experiences, insecurities and personalities. It’s not easy, and parents don’t always have the answers!
