Jackie P Taylor talks to Doug E Fresh.  Following his own self-care--a five mile run, Doug makes the time to chat with Jackie about juggling life while taking care  of self.

You know him as an amazing entertainer...a legend!  Did you know he was also primary caretaker for his aging mom WHILE on a world tour?  Did you know he is the father of young men IN ADDITION to being an entrepreneur and philanthropist? 

Doug shares with us how he got himself through one of the lowest points in his life and how he measures the 'greatest good' to make important decisions.

Yandy Smith-Harris is a true Juggle Master.  She is a mom, wife, entrepreneur, actress, friend, activist....the list goes on.  In mid- May, Jackie P  Taylor had a chance to sit down with her and her restaurant business partner Cynthia Adams at the new Atlanta eatery--The Dancin' Crepe.

They were both so honest with us about their struggles, their successes and how they muster the courage to handle the ups and downs of life.  We talk about the importance of a strong sister circle, days when you 'just can't' and Yandy's secret to making thing happen!
