#TeamGohJo Update V.1

Tribute to Uncle Charlie

One year ago today, my Uncle Charlie passed. Today I wanted to talk about the man he was, his influence on me, and the legacy that he's leaving for others.

Bernadette Joy and Living a Debt Free Lifestyle

Money is not a simple or comfortable subject to talk about. In fact, even those of us best positioned to talk about money have a hard time discussing it with those we are closest with. If left unchecked, money problems can rip whole families and businesses apart. Bernadette Joy didn't let that happen to her when she accumulated $72K in grad school debt in 2016. She and her husband AJ got on a plan, stuck to it relentlessly, and paid off the debt less than two years later. Today, they own their house and a rental property outright, and live completely debt free. In today's episode of The Goh Show, I talk to Bernadette about why the debt free life is what she preaches, how she used a podcast to tell her story, and what's next for her as an entrepreneur.

Colleen Odegaard of the Wake Up To Your Life Podcast

Many of you here in the Charlotte area are probably familiar with Colleen Odegaard, a longtime TV personality with WCNC, and co-host of Charlotte Today. I got to meet Colleen in 2017 on the set at WCNC, and a few years later she approached my about creating a podcast. Fast forward to today, and Colleen's podcast, Wake Up To Your Life, is several episodes deep and already gaining a strong following. On today's episode of the Goh Show, I talk to Colleen about Wake Up To Your Life, her career in TV, her background growing up in an Asian household in San Jose, and even something about her that I only found out recently that I was kind of surprised by.

A Conversation with DeMarco Blair, Justin LaFrancois and Shelley Rozier

If you've been watching Queen City Nerve's tireless coverage of the Black Lives Matter protests here in Charlotte, you've seen a lot of memorable moments unfold in front of your eyes. One moment in particular stood out to many. Thursday night, after a stand off with police, Justin LaFrancois,(QC Nerve Publisher and live streaming journalist) had a long conversation with a gentleman named DeMarco Blair. Blair, who had been out marching all week, told Justin that he never had a white friend, and that the protests helped him discover a new part of the community that appreciated him. Later, a woman named Shelley appeared on the live stream and embraced DeMarco, giving him funds and making instant friends on the spot. This moment has certainly been one of the brightest moments of the protest thus far. On today's episode of The Goh Show, I sit down with the three of them for a conversation about the events of that evening, how our environment shapes race, and what we can do moving forward.
