I’m honored to be a guest on my father’s legendary radio program Caribbeana on 89.3FM WPFW in Washington, D.C., this Saturday, April 12 at 7:15 p.m.

We'll be talking about 5 strategies for stress-free living and the personal journey behind my book, Unmasked: Overcoming Death, A Story of Family, Faith, and Forgiveness.

This conversation is especially meaningful—not only because of the message, but because I get to share it alongside my dad on a show that’s been a voice for Caribbean culture and community for decades.

Tune in and join us for this powerful, heartfelt dialogue. 💜📻
