Women's basketball has been leading sports headlines & shows across all brands ALL YEAR LONG. No doubt about it, the ladies are running things this year. We know all the names & on April 1st at 7 PM, we get the rematch that everyone has been waiting for. The #1 seed Iowa Hawkeyes meet the defending NCAA Women's Basketball Champions, LSU Tigers. Last year, after dancing AND rapping all through March Madness, then freshman Flau'Jae Johnson came by the Essence Festival & Culture press room. She killed the stage inside the Superdome & granted the media time before she continued to enjoy the festivities of being in her backyard.

Thank you for granting this interview & I look forward to seeing her take the next step in both careers! She's on Instagram & most likely on an ESPN Top 10 highlight near you!

It's been a LONG time coming back to the passion project, but I made sure that I came back with a great guest. I was able to talk with actress/recording artist/host LeToya Luckett on TWO separate occasions. First, we were both in New Orleans for the 2023 Essence Music Festival & Culture, a place she calls a second home. And more recently, she was a guest of the nationally syndicated radio show, Ryan Cameron Uncensored, before she hosted this year's Urban One Honors red carpet. She's an incredible friend, an always present friend, and a really chill woman to talk with. Grateful that this episode has FINALLY come out cause it's been on ice since last year!

If you want to follow LeToya, you can see her on Instagram. I can't wait to see what projects she will have coming up, including an album! I want to apologize again for the delay between episodes, but I assure you that I have some more incredible guests & some great follow up episodes to come. I'm going to finish season 3 strong and looking to build an incredible 4th season this summer!

In 2023, we are seeing that there is an incredible backlog of passport applications from the United States. Between people’s passport expiring or applying for their first one, the wait time is between 10-13 weeks. Even if you want that passport expedited for an extra $60, the wait time still stands at 7-9 weeks. So, if you are looking for summer travel, you might be traveling domestically. But, for those that are ready to add stamps to an active passport, we have someone that is interested in bringing you to the motherland of Africa. Not only as a vacation destination but as an invitation to reconnection to your roots.

Lady Dentaa Amoateng visited Atlanta for a fundraiser as the keynote speaker for the GWAG Millennials, but before that, she was able to sit with Sam Sirmons to discuss:

• What traveling to Ghana looks like from Atlanta
• Her background in nursing meets her passion for connecting people through GUBA (Grow Unite Build Africa)
• Initiatives that mean a lot to her (infant mortality, education, & autism)
• Tourism, travel, & its history in Africa as a whole

This interview was previously recorded in April 2023. You can follow Lady Dentaa on Instagram & GUBA website.
