In XYBM 153, we sit down with Billy Council, a dedicated advocate for social justice, equity, and community empowerment. Billy reflects on realizing he needed healing at 49 after losing a Harlem City Council race—an experience that resurfaced unprocessed trauma from childhood, his mother’s addiction, and surviving being shot six times at 19. He also shares how coaching basketball became a pathway to mentorship and purpose, how becoming a father while losing his own father forced him to grow up, and offers insight on co-parenting, emotional presence, and the importance of creating meaningful traditions with your children.      Tune in on all podcast streaming platforms, including YouTube.

In XYBM 151, I open up about a season I recently went through where I genuinely felt abandoned by God — and the uncomfortable truth I had to face about what was actually happening beneath that feeling.         I talk about what it looks like to shift disagreements before they turn into destructive arguments, how betrayal trauma hits men differently when you’ve been cheated on or crossed by someone you trusted, and how to heal without becoming hardened or passing that pain onto the people you love.          If you’re in a season of spiritual and mental growth that feels heavy or confusing, this episode will meet you there.

In XYBM 149, we sit down inside Baltimore City Hall with Brandon Scott, Baltimore’s 52nd mayor, for a rare and deeply personal conversation about leadership, trauma, and what it really takes to transform a city. Mayor Scott opens up about growing up in Park Heights, navigating personal loss, and how his lived experiences shaped his decision to lead differently. We talk about Black history, the responsibility of power, and why being unapologetically Black — especially in moments of crisis — is not just political, but necessary. This conversation also dives into Baltimore’s historic reductions in violent crime, what’s actually working statewide, and how Mayor Scott centers Black women, accountability, and healing in his approach to public safety. He shares why mental health support for Black men is a leadership issue, not a side conversation — and why changing outcomes requires changing systems and culture. This is not a soundbite interview — it’s a real conversation about trauma, courage, and the kind of leadership Black communities deserve.  Tune in on all podcast streaming platforms, including YouTube.
