Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed April Lancit.

• Founder of a private therapy practice focused on culturally sensitive therapy for Black and Brown communities.
• Main Topics:
  • Cultural differences in therapy
  • Challenges in modern relationships and marriage
  • The impact of technology on human connection
  • The role of therapy in addressing generational trauma and stress
  • The future of therapy in the age of AI

---

💡 Key Insights 1. Culturally Sensitive Therapy

• April emphasizes the importance of therapists understanding the lived experiences of marginalized communities.
• Black and Brown clients often face unique challenges that require a nuanced, empathetic approach.

2. Modern Relationship Struggles

• Top issues in marriage therapy: finances, infidelity, and communication.
• Communication is often overlooked but is foundational to resolving other issues.

3. Technology & Disconnection

• The rise of remote living and digital communication is reducing opportunities for organic human interaction.
• Couples are increasingly using text messages—even within the same home—to communicate, which can erode intimacy.

4. Therapy as a Preventative Tool

• Therapy shouldn't be reserved for crises; it can be a proactive tool for personal and relational growth.
• Pre-marriage counseling is often skipped or done too late, missing key conversations about values, finances, and intimacy.

5. AI in Therapy

• April sees potential in AI as a supplementary tool but stresses it cannot replace the human connection essential to effective therapy.

---

🧠 Final Message

April encourages people to seek therapy not out of crisis, but as a way to grow and connect more deeply—with themselves and others. She remains hopeful that with intention and effort, society can rebuild meaningful human connections.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Shiloh Bigles. 

A certified functional nutrition counselor and founder of Level Minds CBD Health Club in Suwanee, Georgia.

Here’s a breakdown of the key themes and takeaways:

---

🌿 Episode Overview

• Guest: Shiloh Bigles, founder of Level Minds CBD and a certified functional nutrition counselor.
• Focus: Educating the public on the benefits of CBD, breaking stereotypes, and promoting holistic wellness through functional nutrition and plant-based healing.

---

💡 Key Insights 1. What Is CBD and Why It Matters

• CBD (cannabidiol) interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system, which helps regulate immune and neurological functions.
• It promotes homeostasis, which supports better sleep, reduced pain, and improved overall well-being.

2. Top Reasons People Use CBD

• Sleep issues and pain management are the two most common reasons customers seek CBD.
• CBD can be used topically (e.g., balms) or internally (e.g., gummies, oils, chocolates) depending on the condition.

3. Functional Nutrition Meets CBD

• Shiloh combines her background in functional nutrition with CBD to help people manage autoimmune conditions like lupus and Crohn’s disease—both of which she personally manages without pharmaceuticals.

4. Breaking the Stigma

• Many people associate CBD with marijuana and “getting high.” Shiloh clarifies:
  • Her store offers THC-free products for professionals, families, and even pets.
  • Products range from chocolate bites to muscle balms, gummies, and low-dose THC drinks.
  • CBD can be used to replace alcohol, reduce anxiety, and improve relationships.

5. Entrepreneurship with Purpose

• Shiloh didn’t start her business for money—she started it to help people.
• Her business thrives on word-of-mouth, community trust, and customer care.
• She emphasizes that passion and purpose can lead to financial success.
