In this episode, Alfa Demmellash sits down with Towanda McEachern, founder of The Empowerment Studio in Newark, NJ, to explore how personal healing can lead to community transformation.
Towanda shares her journey from trauma to empowerment and how creating spaces of care—like A Life Recycled—can support others in reconnecting with their purpose. Together, they reflect on how the systems we carry internally shape the ones we build around us, and why mental well-being must be central to how we lead.
