Standing on All Ten: Turning Pain Into Power Inspired by Shamekia White

In this episode, we sit down with Shamekia White, a mother of five whose journey through unimaginable trials—surviving a sixty-year federal sentence and the tragic loss of her son to gun violence—reveals the power of choosing healing over mere survival. Together, we unpack what it means to put down the Superwoman cape, embrace vulnerability, and find strength in softness. Discover how sharing your story, building community, and advocating for Black children can turn pain into purpose and inspire hope, even in the darkest seasons.
