The best thing about being Black is our ability to adapt, overcome, and thrive. On the Black and EMPOWERed podcast,we highlight Black excellence, talk about the science of physical, mental, and behavioral health, and interview experts in the field. Every two weeks, join the EMPOWER lab as we continue to focus on Engaging Minorities in Prevention, Outreach, Wellness, Education, and Research. If you are a student, organizational leader, thinker, healer, creator, or anyone who would like to explore how to best utilize your personal strengths, resources, and talents, then this is the podcast for you! *We are a part of the University of Georgia, but these are our personal views and are not reflective of the institution.**The content of this podcast does not constitute therapy, if you are interested in services, please contact a local professional.*
