Ep. 116 Struggling with anxiety? Feeling trapped in your own mind? Minista Jazz knows that battle firsthand. She shares her journey with agoraphobia, an anxiety disorder that made it nearly impossible to leave her home. Unable to find a therapist who truly understood her experience, she built her own support system—D-Nana, a digital AI guide inspired by the wisdom and comfort of a Black grandmother.
In this powerful conversation, Minista Jazz + host Kelly Marie dive into:
✨ Mental Health & AI – How AI characters like Jerome and D-Nana provide culturally relevant support for anxiety and emotional wellness.
✨ Representation in Tech – Why Black voices in AI are crucial to breaking systemic barriers
🔥 "Code is the new cotton. We need to take that and make it our own." 🔥
✨ Courage & Healing – Turning fear into fuel to create spaces where we feel seen, heard, and valued.
✨ Community & Ancestral Wisdom – The importance of honoring our roots in the digital age.
If you’ve ever felt unheard, unseen, or unsupported in your mental health journey, this episode is for you. Tap in for a raw, transformative conversation on AI, anxiety, and reclaiming digital spaces for our healing. 🎙️✨
