Fri Jan 30 2026
What if the most important investment you’ll ever make isn’t in your career or finances — but in your health? In this episode of Light Up the Mic, Kembala Evans explores how treating your health like wealth can transform your energy, confidence, strength, and future. You’ll learn why mindset matters, how to move more your way, and why nutrition plays a bigger role than most of us realize.
From mindset shifts to understanding the impact of movement and nutrition, this conversation is about progress, not perfection. Filled with real stories, practical takeaways, and encouragement from past guests, this episode makes wellness feel realistic and achievable. If you’re looking for motivation that feels supportive — not stressful or guilt-driven — this episode is for you.
