Tap In! | Dr. Nikeya Young | VLS Podcast Ep 120
We are officially wrapping up Season 11 of the podcast, and honey, we are closing it out with a bang! Too many times in church culture, we throw around "Christianese" words without digging into the raw power behind them. We pray for God to change our circumstances, completely forgetting that Luke 17:21 tells us the Kingdom of God is within us! As my brilliant pastor, Pastor James E. Ward, Jr., broke down so powerfully this week, the Kingdom isn't a building - it is God's sove

Declutter Your Mind | Dr. Nikeya Young | VLS Podcast Ep 119
Life has been moving fast, and if we are completely honest, the past few weeks have thrown a lot of adverse events our way. Between navigating crazy, unpredictable storms and processing devastating stories on our timelines—like the tragic loss of a 19-year-old young man - it is incredibly easy to let mental clutter take over our space. When we let anxiety, panic, and societal divisions fester in our minds, a repetitive negative tape starts playing in our background. We did an

Men Matter | Rosalyn Bates x Dr. Nikeya Young | VLS Podcast Ep 116
We have a habit in the black community and church culture of saying, "What happens in this house, stays in this house". We tell our people to just take it to the Lord in prayer and leave it on the altar. But let's be completely real: our men are walking around with a heavy, silent weight, and they are drowning in isolation. In this week's episode, "Men Matter," I sat down with Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor Rosalyn Bates of Rosgarden Productions to discuss how clini

I'm Worth It | Dr. Nikeya Young | VLS Podcast Ep 115
Everything about God is abundant. He doesn't do anything small! Yet, so many high-potential leaders carry a negative money mindset that completely stalls out their professional victory.

The data doesn't lie - when managers remember to say thank you and recognize value, productivity spikes by 50%. But when we struggle wit

Give Them Flowers | Dr. Nikeya Young | VLS Podcast Ep 112
We are officially back in the studio, and since it's Mental Health Awareness Month, we need to talk about the power of gratitude. My latest episode, "Give Them Flowers," was inspired by a bittersweet realization: we often wait until someone's funeral to talk about how much they mean to us. But what if we started vocalizing that appreciation now? Statistics show that only a measly 10% of people express gratitude at work on a regular basis—yet doing so can boost a team's produc
