In this episode, Isabel Franke explores the tragic death of Demartravion “Trey” Reed, a 21-year-old Delta State University student found hanging on campus in September 2025. While officials have said there is no evidence of foul play, Trey’s family and community are raising serious questions.

This conversation goes beyond the headlines to unpack the historical weight of lynching, the symbolism of hangings in Black and BIPOC communities, and the ancestral trauma carried in our DNA, as explained in My Grandmother’s Hands by Resmaa Menakem. Isabel dives into how systems of power use fear and separation to control, why unity across BIPOC communities is essential, and how spiritual grounding can transform inherited wounds into collective healing.

✨ Topics covered:

• Trey Reed’s story and why his death resonates so deeply
• The history and motivations of lynching in America
• Why the 2022 Emmett Till Anti-Lynching Act still matters today
• How ancestral trauma is stored in the body and passed down through generations
• The role of fear, division, and political rhetoric in shaping public response
• Spiritual practices to heal trauma and choose unity over separation

This episode is a call to remember: Truth will be revealed. Healing is possible. Justice is sacred. Unity is our power.

Book mentioned: My Grandmother’s Hands by Resmaa Menakem

Get ready for some real talk! Isabel is joined by Flix and Redd from the “Ain’t Got It Yet” podcast to spill the male perspective on dating, relationships, and all the things women secretly want to know but men rarely say out loud.

We’re covering it all—like why some men look for qualities that remind them of mom (yes, really), how guys actually know when they’ve found “the one,” and why you should never just assume you’re in a relationship (awkward). We dig into whether successful women intimidate men, what “high-value” really means, and why peace at home is at the top of most men’s wish lists.

Expect laughs, honesty, and a few “wait…did he really just say that?” moments. Whether you’re single, dating, or trying to decode the guy next to you, this episode gives you an inside peek into how men think about love, success, and connection.

In this episode, we dive deep into the hidden trap of spiritual bypassing—the ‘love and light only’ mindset that avoids real healing. I break down the myths vs. truths about spirituality, explore how toxic positivity and manifestation culture can keep us stuck, and share what true spiritual growth really looks like. From shadow work to healthy boundaries, emotional honesty to practical action, we uncover how to embrace both the light and the shadow on your spiritual journey. If you’ve ever wondered why positivity alone isn’t enough—or how to avoid bypassing in your own healing—this episode is for you.”
