The Joyous Justice Podcast
The Joyous Justice Podcast is for kind, committed professionals, leaders, and spiritually-inclined folks who want to cultivate resilience, deepen their impact, and co-create justice with clarity and joy.
Leadership isn’t just about action—it’s about mindfulness, healing, wise discernment, and the courage to radically reimagine what’s possible and necessary.
If you’re ready to shift from navigating challenges in default stress mode to cultivating your capacity to increasingly lead with intentional power and co-creative wisdom, tune in!
Hosted by award-winning Black & Cherokee Jewish social justice leader and certified coach, Kohenet April Nichole Baskin.
The future is ours to co-create!

Ep 124: Living in the Present with Blessings
Tracie shares one of the ways she says present throughout the day amidst the immensity of the to-do list or the demands to be productive: saying blessings over daily rituals. She tells us about the blessings she says over things that may seem mundane–like a cup of coffee or a workout–-, and what effect this has had on her life.
