Two Conversations. One Moment.
Healing, Wealth, and the Work of Staying Human
There are moments when the world feels especially loud — politically, culturally, emotionally. And in those moments, the questions shift.
How do we stay grounded?
How do we protect our humanity?
How do we build futures that don’t just extract from us — but restore us?
This week on Soul Thursdays, we’re holding space for two powerful live conversations that speak directly to this moment — one centered on healing and presence, the other on wealth, creativity, and ownership. Together, they form a rare dialogue about what it really means to survive and design something better.
🌱 Where Healing Meets Culture
Political Anxiety, Presence, and the Work of Staying Human

We are living in a time of political anxiety, social rupture, and constant psychological pressure. For many — especially high-achieving leaders, clinicians, helpers, and creatives — the stress doesn’t always look dramatic. It looks quiet. Internal. Lonely.
In this Soul Thursdays spotlight conversation, Dr. B. Nilaja Green helps us slow the room down and ask deeper questions:
Why political anxiety is a distinct and embodied form of distress
What mindfulness really means when it’s about presence, not performance
How trauma lives in the body, not just the mind
The hidden loneliness of people who are “doing well” on the outside
Practical tools for staying grounded in chaotic times
What it means to become good ancestors through the choices we make today
This conversation isn’t about fixing yourself.
It’s about learning how to stay human — together.

What happens when culture, capital, and creativity finally meet — on our terms?
In this live Soul Thursdays conversation, Nina Orm helps us unpack a truth many creatives already feel but haven’t always had language for:
Black creativity has generated enormous value — often without ownership, control, or legacy.
Together, we explore:
Why Black wealth has always been about more than money
How capital systems extract culture without returning ownership
Why creatives are entrepreneurs — whether they claim the title or not
What the future of creative capital could look like if we design it ourselves
How imagination itself becomes a form of wealth
This episode is for artists, founders, culture-makers, and anyone rethinking their relationship with money, power, and possibility.
Why These Conversations Belong Together
Healing without resources leaves people exhausted.
Wealth without humanity leaves people empty.
This week, Soul Thursdays invites you into both rooms — the internal and the systemic, the personal and the political, the nervous system and the balance sheet.
Come for the insight.
Stay for the community.
Leave with language, tools, and perspective you can carry forward.

Let’s slow down, question deeply, and build something more human — together. 💛
Brilliant framing on how healing without resources and wealth without humanity both lead to emptiness. The insight about Black creativity generating value without control has always been visible in music and fashion, but applying it to the larger capital conversation realy shifts the angle. I've seen this play out watching creatives I know who build entire movements but end up with nothing tangilbe. The dual conversation structure here feels like the right move.
