Holding Hope in Hard Times with Doc Jana

In this powerful and soul-stirring episode, we sit down with the visionary Doc Jana—author, mystic, former DEI consultant, and certified death doula—to explore what it really means to lead with heart in a world on fire. We talk about embracing awkwardness, navigating spiritual awakenings, stepping away from performative professionalism, and time traveling into a more just and joyful 2035. Doc shares her journey from growing up as an army brat to founding Manifest Equity® and helping people imagine a radically better future, starting from within. We also touch on:Burnout in DEI and the cost of being “the only one”The connection between birth, death, and leadershipThe fall of capitalism (yes, we go there)Why joy is a form of resistanceHow to anchor yourself when everything’s shifting This one goes deep. And yes, there will be a part two! In the meantime, tune in, take a breath, and maybe even schedule some joy time. Podcast Chapters(0:00:07) - Felicia and Rachel Intro(0:13:47) - Welcome Doc!
