The Platform: Let’s Talk About It!

episode 33: The 1M4 Interview with Tansy McNulty

Welcome back! In honor of Black Women's History Month, our host Jas Lynn sits down with Tansy McNulty, founder and CEO of 1 Million Madly Motivated Moms (1M4), a nonprofit committed to ending police violence by 2038. Tansy shares how her personal experiences led her to establish 1M4, which focuses on providing alternatives to police intervention, particularly in mental health and substance use cases, through a resource called The Right Response directory. She also discusses 1M4's initiatives, including supporting families affected by police violence with donations and emotional support, and their partnership with ANJEL Tech, a Black-owned bodycam app designed to protect individuals from law enforcement misconduct. Tune in to learn how 1M4 promotes collective action, drives systemic social change, and empowers communities to create a safer future.

ep. 29 - let's talk about redirection

In this week's episode, we explore the paths of personal growth, resilience, and transformation through the lens of redirection. Points of redirection in life come in various forms and to gain understanding we must choose to be grounded and allow lessons to come to us to navigate through redirection effectively. I hope by sharing some recent personal experiences and new perspectives gained I can be an example of how our perspective on redirection can provide an opportunity for growth and lessons designed to be shared with others and encourage them as well. My hope is that this episode is encouraging for all who listen and provide some much-needed perspective and encouragement.
