Hey, Hey, Hey family!!

We’re revisiting this 2025 episode as a reminder that Black history deserves to be honored again and again.

From the past to the present, the legacy lives on.

It is Black History Month. This is the month that highlights the deep meaning of our people and our culture for the African American community and our nation as a whole. The African American community has ALWAYS possessed strength, courage, and wisdom. From one generation to the next.

In this episode, I want to honor Black History Month by exploring its significance — the opportunities it offers for reflection, education, and connection—and discuss how it continues to shape our journey toward equity and unity. Join in and listen as we talk about what Black History Month means to me and a few others. Come on in the room family. Happy Black History Month.

Hey, Hey, Hey Family!!

What if not having it all figured out isn’t a flaw—but a fact of being human?

In this episode, Candace reflects on the freedom that comes with admitting we are many things at once: strong and vulnerable, responsible and still learning, grounded and growing. This conversation is a reminder that maturity doesn’t mean certainty—and being grown doesn’t mean being finished.

Are you navigating multiple roles, redefining who you are, and learning to give yourself grace while moving forward?

You’re not late. You’re not behind. You’re just figuring it out as you go.

Pull up a chair and let’s talk.

Hey, Hey, Hey Family!!

Welcome to the Emphatically You with Candace Podcast.

In this reflective episode, Candace invites listeners to pause, discern, and release the weight of expectations, responsibilities, and assumptions that were never assigned to them. Rooted in faith and guided by peace, this conversation is a reminder that strength doesn’t require carrying everything—and clarity often begins with letting go.

If you’ve been searching for closure, this episode offers something different: permission to release.

Take a breath. Ask yourself, is this mine to hold? If not.................. Lay it down. And trust that peace was never meant to be heavy.

Together, they explore the importance of embracing one’s identity and celebrating beauty in all its forms. We’re talking about showing up boldly, embracing your beauty, and owning your story — on and off the camera.
