Welcome to the 2nd Season of Black Cancer! I’m creator and host, Jodi-Ann Burey. Before we get started, I just want to thank you so much for being here. Seriously. This podcast is about you. It’s about giving yourself the space to maybe see yourself and your own experiences in new ways. It’s about finding new language to support the people you love. It’s about creating new spaces of vulnerability for us as Black and brown people to be ourselves. Imagine. So thank you for taking the time to be you.

Our guest on today’s show is Janice Omadeke, the Founder and CEO of The Mentor Method, who found herself accelerating her business and managing the grief of her mother’s passing to pancreatic cancer at the same time. In this episode, we talk about our duty as the children of immigrants to actualize more than what our parents dreamed of for our lives, how we at times must split ourselves to be strong, and arduous, but necessary processes of grief. Grief how it looks, feels, and sounds like to us.
