S28E5: The Importance of Passing the Torch with M. Simone Boyd and Andrea Tudhope

Hey lady! In these trying times connecting with community is more important than ever. Community is not just your close friends or even your family. Community is the place where you live, work, and play. It contains history, wisdom and can thrive when tended to well. That’s why Dr. Dom and Terri are thrilled to welcome M. Simone Boyd and Andrea Tudhope, hosts of the podcast We Are North Nashville, as they discuss the power of collecting the stories of the elders in the community to create a beautiful tapestry of legacy, love, and pride.Inspired by a series of tragic events that occurred during the pandemic, Simone set out to capture the stories of the elders in her life before it was too late. But, as she soon found out the work was worthy but the emotional labor would take a toll if she didn’t recruit help for her noble mission. Together, with her co-hosts, Andrea and Steve Haruch, the three embarked on a journey of bridge building, record setting, and community preservation that has led to a fulfilling audio project the residents of North Nashville can feel proud of. If you’re in a space where you know you need to build community and you want to contribute to the community you live in but don’t know where to get started tune in to today’s episode. Andrea and Simone offer their perspective on how approaching people and conversations from a heart-centered place can get all of us back to a place where we peacefully coexist and thrive together. Lady, we want to hear from you! Holla at us in Instagram and let us know how you’re building community or working to preserve the stories of the community you’re in. Quote of the Day:"It needs to be pointed out...the things that were done to North Nashville to sacrifice that part of Nashville in the name of progress."– Thomas Wilson  Goal Mapping Starter Guide Cultivating H.E.R.
