The Black Emotional and Mental Health Collective (BEAM) is proud to announce the return of Black Healing Remixed: The Podcast for its second season on January 30th, 2024. Hosted by Yolo Akili Robinson, BEAM’s Executive Director, award-winning author, and facilitator, alongside Natalie Patterson, BEAM’s Director of Training and Programs, teaching artist, and nationally acclaimed poet, this season continues to redefine Black wellness with powerful, unfiltered conversations that blend ancestral wisdom with today’s modern problems.
Black Healing Remixed is the front porch, the kitchen island, and that perfect seat on the couch where honest and transformative talks about healing and wellness unfold. Each episode celebrates Black healing in all its forms—beautiful, messy, imperfect, and joyous—while giving listeners the language and practical resources to embrace their own healing journeys.
"This season is giving insight into community and lived experience, tips on turning pain into promise and of course, laughter and a good time." Says Patterson, underscoring the podcast’s mission for honesty, joy and growth.
Season 2 brings together a powerful lineup of guests, including renowned healers, advocates, and cultural voices who offer new perspectives on Black healing and wellness:
Tabitha Brown, celebrated actress, vegan lifestyle influencer, and author, shares her journey to success and how she remains grounded by embracing her Southern roots.
Antonia Hylton, Emmy and Peabody award-winning author of Madness: Race & Insanity in a Jim Crow Asylum, unpacks the troubling history of Crownsville State Hospital and its reflection on modern mental health and prison systems.
Courtney B. Vance, Dr. Robin L. Smith, and Devin Michael Lowe explore Black masculinity, mental health, and the power of vulnerability.
Morgan Parker, poet, and novelist, discusses her latest book You Give What You Pay For, navigating personal struggles and systemic injustices.
Season 2 also features Dr. Jennifer Mullan, author of the national bestselling Decolonizing Therapy: Oppression, Historical Trauma & Politicizing Your Practice, and Dr. Evan Auguste, Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Massachusetts.
In a time of social and cultural change, Black Healing Remixed is a space for connection and understanding. The first episode featuring Tabitha Brown is both an inspiring start to the new year and Black History Month, as well as a powerful reminder of the importance of authenticity, rejecting societal (so-called) norms, and living true to who you are.
New episodes will drop monthly on the last Thursday of each month. Listeners can tune in on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music or their favorite podcast platforms. The episodes are also available to watch on YouTube. Join the conversation on BEAM’s social channels for more conversations and resources.
