A Monday Moment with Dr. Mal
Are You Ok, Sis?

This week on A Monday Moment with Dr. Mal, Im asking a question thats been heavy on my heart: Are You Ok, Sis? In the wake of the recent presidential election results, many of us are feeling disappointment, frustration, and a lingering fear about what the future holds for Black women in this country. Well talk about the anxieties that come with witnessing a political landscape that doesnt seem to value our voices, our bodies, or our right to thrive.

As we move through a time of year already fraught with financial stresses, concerns over accessible healthcare, educational disparities, generational trauma, and that relentless feeling of being targeted by both micro- and macro-aggressions, its easy to feel overwhelmed. But you are not alone. Im holding space today to acknowledge these burdens, confront these truths, and talk candidly about how we can protect our mental well-being even when it feels like meaningful change is an elusive goal.


00:00 Manifestations from vision board transforming into reality.

05:00 Black Americans face worse mental health outcomes.

24:49 Thank you; tune in for unreleased content.

A Monday Moment with Dr. Mal
Let's Talk About Death, Baby!

This weeks podcast episode is titled "Let's Talk About Death, Baby!, and I dive deep into a topic many shy away from but is essential for all of us to speak about: death and how to prepare for it.


In this episode, I share my personal journey through grief and loss, from my childhood experiences to the profound grief of losing my college boyfriend in 2004. I explore thanatology, discuss the significance of near-death experiences, and advocate for open conversations about end-of-life wishes.


Key Takeaways:

*Open Dialogue About Death: Engaging in candid discussions about death and grief can alleviate fear and ignorance, making the process more manageable for loved ones.

  

*Practical Preparations: Legal arrangements like living wills, healthcare directives, and estate planning are crucial. Consider eco-friendly burial options and celebrations of life instead of conventional funerals.

*Embrace Life and Gratitude: Focusing on gratitude and acceptance can enhance your life quality. Attend "death cafes" for open conversations and listen to near-death experience stories to gain a different perspective on mortality.


Don't miss this heartfelt and insightful episode. Let's make the conversation about death a part of our livesjoin me in transforming fear into foresight and apprehension into acceptance.

A Monday Moment with Dr. Mal
Parents Are The Best School Supporters

This week, Im thrilled to share with you the latest episode of A Monday Moment with Dr. Mal, where I dive deep into the crucial role parents play as school supporters. In this weeks episode, "Parents Are The Best School Supporters," I explore why parents are indispensable in the educational journey of their children, and how small, effective gestures can make a huge impact.


Key Takeaways:

  • Intrinsic Value of School Supports: Our schools thrive because of the unsung heroes like substitute teachers, food service workers, coaches, bus drivers, and, of course, parents. These roles collectively comprise over one-third of all public school employees, making their contributions indispensable.
  • Overcoming Barriers to Parental Involvement: Factors like busy work schedules, language barriers, or previous school traumas can deter parental involvement. However, small steps such as regular communication with teachers and reinforcing school lessons at home can make a substantial difference.
  • Effective Advocacy: Attending school board meetings, supporting school bonds, and ensuring that teachers' voices are included in policy creation can drive systemic changes that benefit all students. Parents, your advocacy is powerful and necessary.


For more insights and practical advice on being the best support system for your child's education, tune in to this week's episode of A Monday Moment with Dr. Mal. Lets make education a collaborative, supportive experience for everyone involved.

Listen now on the ALIVE Podcast Network, your favorite podcast streaming platform, or my YouTube channel @whenmallorylives. 


00:00 School supports are critical for school functionality.

06:19 Background checks, fingerprinting, egos: substitute teaching challenges.

08:11 Advocate freely, parenting and adulthood challenges discussed.

12:55 Parents often feel judged and intimidated by schools.

15:11 Build a relationship, know the child, update contact, and support learning.

20:05 Support teacher involvement in policymaking.

21:07 Ending this show; find me online everywhere.

A Monday Moment with Dr. Mal
What Educators Want You To Know
In this episode of "A Monday Moment with Dr. Mal," I asked educators what they want others to know about education. Special guests Tara Haskins and Julian Johnson-Marshall, both experienced educators, share insights from the front lines of the school buildings in which they serve. From the importance of centering the experiences of Black women to the evolving demands of the profession, we explore the challenges educators face and how the community can work together to uplift schools, teachers, and students. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of the education system from those who live it daily. Tara has spent the past 10 years of her career supporting the genius of Black and LatinX girls in education, and as a proud Hampton University graduate, she is an HBCU advocate who truly believes that representation not only matters but is essential to any community. She has supported girls by serving in two single-gender schools in both Houston, TX, and Kansas City, MO. During her time as a Dean of Restorative Justice, her implementation of school-wide restorative practices led to out-of-school suspensions decreasing by half in a single year. As the Founding School Leader of Kansas Citys first public single-gender school, the school was most recently recognized by the state of Missouri as a Top 5 school for academic growth and a Top 5 school for Black student growth in Kansas City. She currently serves as the Director of Academics for the SEED School of Los Angeles County and is the Founder and CEO of Honoring Her H.U.E., an organization that believes in the brilliance of black women in education. She is the first Black woman I had the pleasure to interview, and I was honored to have her! #iykyk Julian serves as an educator who was born, raised, and currently lives in Kansas City, Mo. He is a graduate of Loyola University Chicago and holds a Master of Arts in Education from Ottawa University.

He currently serves as an English teacher and Head Boys Track & Field Coach at Grandview High School in Grandview, MO. Additionally, he is the Building Programs Coordinator for Brother Liberating Our Communities (B.L.O.C.), a Kansas City professional network of Black men working in education to uplift the local communities. As a licensed Baptist minister, he proudly serves his childhood church, Metropolitan Missionary Baptist Church. He is a committed (and PROUD) father to his daughter Shiloh. We had a beautiful conversation that you'll get to hear in its entirety if you stay tuned into my social media, but I had to cut it short. I can't wait to share snippets of the conversation you won't get to hear on THIS show, but you'll still get to hear a great conversation!
