For Good
Podcast Description
What if healing yourself was the first step to changing the world?
This is a space for grounded, soul-level conversations about mental health, emotional intelligence, personal growth, and what it means to live with intention. Here, healing isn’t a trend, it’s a lifelong commitment. Through vulnerable storytelling and honest reflection, For Good helps us reconnect with purpose, reimagine legacy, and choose growth — for ourselves, our families, and our communities.
At the heart of it all is Joseph “JoJo” Simmons, the son of hip hop royalty, Rev Run of Run DMC, and a multi-faceted entertainer, entrepreneur, husband, father, and mental health advocate. From MTV’s Run’s House to Growing Up Hip Hop, JoJo’s journey has been public but his evolution has been deeply personal.
After facing public scrutiny in his teens, JoJo took a step back from the spotlight to prioritize his mental health. He reemerged as an advocate, determined to use his platform for good. In 2023, he received the Phoenix Arising Award from the Black Mental Health Alliance, honoring his commitment to wellness and emotional literacy in the Black community.
JoJo brings a rare mix of humility, humor, and heart to every episode. Whether he’s speaking solo or sitting with a guest, he creates space for listeners to reflect, reset, and rise together.
Expect episodes that explore the power of emotional intelligence in real life, mental health beyond buzzwords — especially for Black men and fathers, breaking generational cycles through inner work and intention, and what legacy looks like when it’s built on love, not ego. You’ll also hear honest, unfiltered stories that inspire growth, healing, and a deeper connection to purpose.
Notable guests include:
Dr. Cheyenne Bryant: Life coach and psychology expert dropping truth bombs on relationships and accountability
Lil Eazy-E: Reflecting on his father’s legacy and the controversy surrounding his death

In this solo episode of the For Good Podcast, Joseph “JoJo” Simmons reflects on gratitude as more than a holiday tradition — but a daily practice that reshapes how we move through stress, pressure, and life itself. From slowing down to appreciating the small wins, JoJo shares why gratitude has become one of his most important tools for mental clarity, peace, and growth.
In this special solo episode of the For Good Podcast, Joseph “JoJo” Simmons takes a moment to slow things down and speak directly to the listener about gratitude — not as something tied to gifts, success, or milestones, but as a mindset that changes how we experience life.
JoJo reflects on a realization that stopped him in his tracks: how much stress quietly shapes our health, our decisions, and our sense of peace. From that moment, he began shifting his focus toward gratitude — especially for the small, often overlooked things we tend to take for granted.
Throughout the episode, JoJo shares honest thoughts on moving at your own pace, resisting comparison, and understanding that your journey doesn’t need to match anyone else’s timeline. He emphasizes the importance of honoring small steps, trusting the process, and recognizing that consistency — not speed — leads to real growth.
This episode touches on:
Why stress can quietly run our lives if we let it
Learning to move at your own pace without comparison
Practicing gratitude for the small, everyday wins
How slowing down can create clarity and peace
Why small steps often lead to the biggest breakthroughs
Rooted in reflection and intention, this episode is a reminder that gratitude isn’t just something we practice during the holidays — it’s something that can ground us, protect our mental health, and reshape how we show up every day.
