On the “Vegan &amp; Fit” episode host Rachel ‘Rae’ Crowder had a conversation with Randi Franklin who is an expert in veganism and fitness. We talked about the traditional American diet, how plants can give us life, and what it means to truly be a healthy vegan. Randi is originally from Toledo, OH, and currently lives in Indianapolis, IN with her husband Chad and puppy Lee. She graduated from Bowling Green State University with a degree in broadcast journalism and from The University of Toledo with an MBA in marketing management and international business. In 2021, Randi left her career as a director of marketing to start her own consultancy, RMF Brand &amp; Marketing Consulting. This year, to overcome her fitness and health challenges, she applied and was hired as a fitness coach at [solidcore] in Indianapolis where she supports and encourages clients accomplishing their personal wellness goals. In January, Randi also began her plant-based journey, choosing a whole-foods, low calorie density approach to gain more energy and better health. In her spare time, Randi loves hiking, traveling, trying new vegan foods and spending time with Chad and Lee. She is currently enrolled vegan cooking courses through Forks Over Knives and Rouxbe where she will earn credits from the American Culinary Foundation. She is also a Young Women’s District Leader in Indianapolis for the Soka Gakkai International, a Buddhist organization that promotes world peace and teaches that each person has within them the courage, wisdom and compassion to face and surmount any of life’s challenges.

Dear Black Men

On this episode I have a conversation with Dr. Beverly Sheppard who is the Department Chair of Pediatrics at Advantage Care Physicians. We discussed the impact of pediatrics in the African American community and how Black History starts with caring for our children. As head of pediatrics at AdvantageCare Physicians, Dr. Sheppard oversees the care of more than 50,000 children in the NYC area. She manages 40+ pediatricians and their staff throughout New York and puts into practice her strong commitment to family-centric healthcare, especially in communities of color. With nearly 40 years in the medical field, she is a vocal advocate for children and community health, focusing on underserved populations. Deeply attuned to the mistrust held in the healthcare system by communities of color and as a Black woman physician and leader, Dr. Sheppard emphasizes empathy, education and quelling fears and hesitation toward the industry among her patients. Her drive stems from the unique opportunity—and responsibility--of watching patients and families grow over time. She also believes generational elevation can occur by coaching best health practices early and often among Black youth.

She has been a mental health advocate in the wellness industry for over ten years and has survived severe postpartum depression.

Did you know that Bob Marley was just 36 years old when he died from an aggressive form of melanoma that primarily affects people of color. It’s a sad fact that Black people have the lowest survival rates for melanoma of any racial group in the U.S. The disease is more likely to be detected at a later stage, when it is much harder to treat. On this episode I had an informative conversation with Charmaine Cooper AKA The Skin Theologian. She is the author of The No Compromise Black Skin Care Guide: The Truth About Caring For Darker Skin. We talked about colorism, how Black doesn’t crack, and common mistakes we as Black people make when caring for our skin.

Did you know that Black American women have the highest rates of obesity in the United States? About 4 out of 5 Black American women and 7 out of 10 men are overweight or obese. When we are overweight or obese we are more likely to suffer from high blood pressure, high levels of blood fats, diabetes and LDL cholesterol which increases our risk of heart disease and stroke. Today’s episode is titled “Decoding Obesity”. I had a chance to talk with Dr. Jamy Ard, MD about obesity as disease, food swamps, obesity, treatment barriers, legislation, and how we can all take action to get legislation passed for the treatment of obesity. Dr. Ard is a clinical researcher focused on studying strategies to treat obesity in adults. He co-directs the Wake Forest Baptist Health Weight Management Center, where he oversees the medical weight management programs. In their center, their teams use a variety of state-of-the-art approaches to treat obesity, ranging from surgery and medications to lifestyle therapy with remote monitoring. He has particular interests in working with specific populations of adults who either suffer from obesity disparities or where obesity treatment is particularly challenging. This includes individuals from ethnic minority groups like African Americans, older adults, and those with severe obesity. He is also a HBCU graduate of Morehouse College and has been a featured as a contributor in Blavity News.
