  • Finding Your Flow in Business and Life with Sarah Pope
    Jul 23 2025

    🎙️ Episode Title:

    Finding Your Flow in Business and Life with Sarah Pope

    💭 Episode Description:

    This one’s for the mamas, the makers, and the magic-seekers. Jess sits down with Sarah Pope, creative entrepreneur, mother, and founder of Pope Media Co.- for a raw and radiant convo about building a business in the middle of motherhood. From photographing home births to nurturing brands between snack breaks, Sarah is the real deal.

    We talk sacred chaos, seasonal living, and why the idea of “balance” is kind of BS. Sarah shares how she aligns her work with her emotional and menstrual cycles, and what it means to parent and lead with presence, vulnerability, and a whole lot of grit. She’s not here to pretend it’s easy- but she is here to remind you that it’s worth it. Expect wisdom, laughter, and permission to bloom in your own damn time.

    • You don’t need to do it all. You just need to remember who you are in the process.

    • You’re not broken. You might just be in winter.
    • Stop forcing balance. Start nourishing your nervous system.

  • Dr. Ashley Gaddy Robbins on People-First Culture, Sacrifice, and Saying ‘No More’
    Jul 23 2025

    🎙️ Episode Title:

    Dr. Ashley Gaddy Robbins on People-First Culture, Sacrifice, and Saying ‘No More’

    💭 Episode Description:

    This one? It’s deep. Dr. Ashley Gaddy Robbins brings it all, her fierce intellect, lived wisdom, and unshakable heart to this Uncaged conversation. Amma to four, DEI consultant, and researcher, she opens up about what it really means to lead a people-first life. We talk motherhood, entrepreneurship, and the emotional toll of doing justice work in a world that too often resists the mirror.

    Ashley’s work isn’t just about equity it’s about love. It’s about saying the names of those who’ve been erased, claiming space as a Black mother-scholar, and teaching the rest of us what it means to honor people before policies. Her words stay with you.

    ✨ Connect with Dr. Ashley:

    🔗 Instagram: @Dr.AshleyGaddyRobbins

    🌐 Website: Ashley Gaddy Enterprises

    📝 Projects Mentioned:

    Research Publication: "Geraldine's Journey" essay in Spoken Black Girl Magazine's Motherhood Issue (Spring 2024)

    Upcoming Projects: Documentary and stage play based on her research (currently seeking funding and production support)

    💡 Key Takeaways:

    • Say people’s names. Out loud. In rooms where they aren't present. It matters.
    • Boundaries are sacred, especially when you’re balancing motherhood and your calling.
    • If you hold privilege, this work is yours, too.
    • DEI is not a trend! It's real, relentless, emotional labor. And it needs to be honored as such.

    🤝 How You Can Support Dr. Ashley's Work:

    • Book her as a speaker or consultant for your next event
    • Contribute funding to her documentary and stage play projects
    • Offer pro bono services (grant writing, production, etc.)
