Comments, Critique & Keeping the Conversation Going

In this Not All Hood sit-down, Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Candace Kelley open up about the real work of podcasting—embracing critique, letting go of the need to be right, and keeping conversations going. Malcolm shares a 5-minute state-shift anyone can use—smile + gratitude—to move out of a low vibrational space fast. Candace breaks down AI in the classroom, how professors spot undetectable essays, and why authentic voice still wins. They also celebrate the joy of whimsical Black womanhood, challenge heavy narratives, and talk cross-promotion, from Malcolm’s poetry and Biological Misfits jam sessions in Atlanta to transformational coaching. It’s vulnerable, funny, and practical—mindset tools, media literacy, and culture talk you can use today. #notallhood #MalcolmJamalWarner #CandaceKelley #NAHMoreThanAMonth #CompanyX #blackculture #mentalhealth #gratitude #smilehack #mindset #ai #education #writingtips #authenticity #blackjoy #whimsical #relationships #selfgrowth #atlanta #musicians #poetry #BiologicalMisfits ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Not All Hood (NAH) podcast takes a look at the lived experiences and identities of Black people in America.
