Hi! It’s Terrian & Yana, Creators and Hosts of the Melanated Conversations Podcast. We started Melanated Conversations out of the desire for a sisterly community that fostered positive and authentic expression of our voices on various topics that we experience daily.  

Our stories are not often expressed from our lense. We shift this narrative and amplify our voices to topics with our perspectives in mind.

Our Narrative From Our Perspective

Every Monday, through the voices of guests of the podcast we connect and share our experiences and powerful stories of transformation.

DO IT AFRAID!

by, Sophia Lenore

Where do you find the courage to lead?

Is it hidden in the place where you store your passion to succeed?

How do you push past fear?

Do you simply keep the faith and hope to preserver?

Why not stand in that fear – embrace it

Turn it into motivation – Face it!

We need leaders & politicians who are willing to take the leap – “To Do It While Afraid”.

There is no time to waste – our communities are dying.

A choice needs to be made.

Are we just gonna keep waiting for someone else to some save us?

Who would be more qualified to lead us then one of us?

Who would have more empathy and concern for us than one of us?

We need to put fear & self doubt to the side and just step up!

Who said that our leaders & politicians can’t descend from our neighborhoods – step up!

Who said for the people by the people is dead – step up!

To hell with qualifications

To hell with past infractions – step up!

Nowadays everyone is a hustler of some sort with a air-tight plan to succeed, but no courage to lead – step up!

Where do you find the courage to lead?

How do you push past fear? Stand in it – embrace it

Turn it into motivation – Face it!

Believe me, the best part of waking up isn’t Folgers in your cup!

It’s realizing that you have the power to save yourself and your community.

All you need to do is realize it - and just step up!

Ep. 74:  The Future of Politics with Christina Romelus

 

In this week’s episode, we amplify the voice of Christina Romelus.  Christina is not your typical politician!  She is the cheerleader that every community needs.  Her family is her nuclear center that helps her go through day by day. With their love and support, she has found a passion for politics and wanting to change the world for good for her sons. She is a powerhouse and leader for stepping up in changing in the black and brown communities and giving the people what they need.

In this episode, we talk about:

  1. How being a "boys' mom" started her political career.

  2. Christina’s mission to bring the right people in office to bring the changes that are promised from the start. 

  3. Why mental health is the key to balancing life.
