In this week's episode, Antoinette returns to the pod. She shares her recent surgery experience while Shanti prepares for festival season. Together, we discuss Trump's version of reparations as well as the recent blow to America's Voting RIght's Act from the Supreme Court. We lament the loss of Adam's Apples amongst men, and share our thoughts on the announced castings of Josephine Baker and Betty Boop movies. Join us...

This week, the Workbae Pod crew joins Shanti as guest hosts. Together, we get into dating, intimacy, guilt, and what it means to feel “content” in a relationship. Then we spiral into global politics, and the rise of public “experts” like Cheyenne Bryant and Jay Shetty. And following Kevin Hart's recent roast, we ask: Is Kevin Hart really in the GOAT category, or are we just haters? Join us...

This week, Shanti sits down with Dr. Kimberly McGlonn, award-winning social entrepreneur, author, speaker, and founder of Grant Blvd, Blk Ivy Thrift, and author of the book, Build It Boldly. Together, we explore what it means to lead with courage in a world that often rewards extraction, scale, and speed over care, accountability, and community.

Kim shares her wisdom on social entrepreneurship, values-led business, the tension between profit and purpose, and why optimism is not naïve but necessary. We also talk about the grief and clarity that can come with closing a chapter, what Black women founders truly need beyond public applause, and how small businesses can become powerful sites of culture, care, and resistance.

If you are building something, questioning what success really means, or trying to stay brave in the middle of transition, this conversation is for you.
