My name is Zharia Jeffries and I am the host of the Healing Underground podcast. And my goal is to figure out, step by step, how to obtain generational health. We here about breaking generational curses and building generational wealth. And arguably all of those things have some sort of step by step process to achieving them.

It's time we figure it out, all right here...in the underground.

I started this project to do just that, to establish the step by step process to building generational health, especially in Black and Brown communities.

As a health care journalist in Charleston, SC, I can't tell you how many times I've written the words, "Black and African Americans are disproportionately affected by". And quite frankly, I'm sick of it. I'm tired of seeing the statistics about Black men and women dying from preventable chronic diseases, from preventable screenable diseases.

There is a better way, a better day, ahead of us where we don't wind up birthing sons that we could possibly outlive because of health issues. There's a better future that doesn't include normalizing chronic illnesses like diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease.

It starts with us, right here, in the Underground. Building generational health is like an underground movement. It's about making subtle but powerful shifts in your lifestyle, your choices, and your mindset. It's about planting the seeds of a healthier and more fulfilling future, one generation at a time.

"This first season, we're kicking things off by focusing on physical health. We'll be joined by experts, real people, and health care providers who will share their insights, experiences, and tips for achieving and maintaining physical well-being.

At the end of each season, I'll reveal a wellness challenge tailored to the season's theme, designed to inspire you to take action and make a real impact on your generational health journey.

So, whether you're just starting your generational health journey or looking to take it to the next level, you've found your community here in the Healing Underground.

Thanks for joining us, and welcome to Healing Underground.
