Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Marsha Evans. Purpose of the Interview To highlight Marsha Evans’ work as a licensed professional counselor and founder of Willow Tree Counseling and Educational Center. To explore strategies for navigating life’s complex stages, breaking generational patterns, and building authentic relationships. To provide actionable insights for entrepreneurs and individuals on self-awareness, fear management, and relationship dynamics. Key Takeaways Understanding Complexity Life stages vary in complexity for each person—middle school for some, adulthood for others. Evans emphasizes listening and identifying what balance, peace, or contentment means for each individual. Early Awareness and Discipline At age 12, Evans set a goal to earn a scholarship, showing intentionality and discipline. Athletics taught her teamwork, problem-solving, and resilience, shaping her leadership style. Reading the Room Start by reading yourself—know your energy and intentions. Authenticity and confidence are key to building relationships and leveraging opportunities. Fear and Family Systems Fear often originates from family systems and generational patterns, not just personal experiences. Example: Parents’ limited worldview can project fear of the unknown onto children. Recognizing these patterns helps individuals break cycles and pursue their own paths. Generational Patterns & Healing Evans uses Genograms (visual family trees) to identify psychological and behavioral patterns across three generations. Acceptance of parents and family history is crucial for personal and professional growth. Rejecting parents = rejecting life and success; honor them while creating new narratives. Practical Steps for Change Build a relationship with yourself through solitude, meditation, yoga, and movement. Reduce stress (cortisol levels) to improve clarity and decision-making. Examine your money story—how family attitudes toward money shape your financial behavior. Relationships Romantic: Partners often mirror unresolved childhood issues; do inner work to avoid projecting. Professional: Maintain boundaries; emotional needs should not be placed on workplace relationships. Personal: Define roles clearly; avoid expecting friends to fill parental gaps. Consistency and Authenticity Success requires consistency with yourself before expecting it from others. Ask: Are your goals truly yours or influenced by societal expectations? Notable Quotes “I become a visitor in your world and start listening to your story.” “Reading the room starts with reading yourself.” “Fear is often not yours—it comes from your family system.” “You can’t reject your parents; when you reject your mother, you reject life.” “Consistency with yourself is key to achieving the results you desire.” “Your partner cannot carry the burden of your parents.” “People are divorced from themselves—I teach them how to get married to themselves.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Sharise Nance. Purpose of the Interview To showcase Sharise Nance’s mission in mental health advocacy, entrepreneurship, and workplace wellness. To discuss her companies: Hand in Hand Counseling Services – addressing mental health disparities in Black communities. Vitamin C Healing – building trauma-sensitive, wellness-centered workplace cultures. To educate on stress, burnout, compassion fatigue, and financial equity in the mental health field. Key Takeaways Hand in Hand Counseling Services Founded with college roommate Tess Kenny in Pittsburgh. Created a safe space for mental health support in underserved communities. Celebrating 12 years in operation. Breaking Mental Health Stigma Built trust through community presence and transparency. Advocated therapy as normal: “I’m a therapist who has a therapist.” Education on what therapy is and isn’t. Understanding Stress Eustress (positive stress) vs. Distress (overwhelming stress). Physical signs: sweating, rapid heartbeat, tense shoulders, jaw clenching. Stress can lead to depression and anxiety—seek professional help. Impact of COVID-19 Isolation amplified mental health issues. Introduced concept of co-regulation—healing through community and connection. Vitamin C Healing Originated from her book Vitamin C Healing for the Mind, Body. Evolved into a brand offering workshops, consultations, and burnout assessments. Focused on helping professionals and leaders prevent compassion fatigue. Financial Equity in Mental Health Advocates for fair pay: “We can care deeply and earn abundantly.” Challenges the mindset that passion work means low income. Encourages professionals to set boundaries and value their expertise. Burnout & Organizational Cost Unaddressed burnout costs companies millions annually. Leads to quiet quitting, low productivity, and high turnover. Investing in wellness saves money and improves culture. Personal Journey Biggest bet: leaving full-time job in 2017 to pursue entrepreneurship. Therapy helped her navigate fear and grief (especially after losing her father). Quote: “Feel the fear and do it anyway.” Notable Quotes “We can care deeply and earn abundantly.” “I’m a therapist who has a therapist.” “Feel the fear and do it anyway.” “We heal when we are in community—it’s hard to heal in isolation.” “Compassion fatigue isn’t just a feel-good topic; it costs companies millions.” “Betting on myself was the best investment I ever made.” #SHMS #STRAW #BEST #AMISupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
