83: Dr. Akilah Cadet, Founder and Executive Coach of Change Cadet (@changecadet)

On this episode, I sit down with Dr. Akilah Cadet (@changecadet), founder of consulting firm Change Cadet. Dr. Cadet tells us about her mental health and career struggles and her passion for empowering women and people of color. Dr. Cadet talks about the racism and discrimination she’s experienced in her career and as a patient and what inspired her to found her ally-nudge program. We dive into forms of privilege, cultural white supremacy, and the divisiveness in the country right now.

Hello, World!

SHOW INFO

Today’s episode is brought to you by BLUblox, a new staple over here in Freckled Foodie land. BLUblox has created products to help you take light hygiene as seriously as we should including their three signature lenses: Sleep+, BluLite, and SummerGlo. I talk about how much I love my Blulite glasses and I wear them in about just every Instagram story you watch, but let me give you some insight into these Sleep+ glasses because they have changed my life. They address the exact frequencies of light required after dark to optimally produce melatonin for restorative sleep and health. Joe and I both wear them starting around 7PM at night and they have been an absolute game changer when it comes to our sleep. No longer are we laying in bed restless and struggling with that “unwind” prior to falling asleep. No joke, the second our heads hit the pillows we are ready for sleep. I cannot recommend these enough! If you’re interested in grabbing a pair for yourself, use code FRECKLED for 15% off and free shipping. Go to www.BLUblox.com/freckled and get shopping
