Originally aired April 2023, this "Best of" episode features the renowned actor, dancer, print based NYC model, LGBTQ advocate, and my childhood friend John-Deric Mitchell. John Deric has appeared on film and tv shows such as “Pose” and “Harlem”, and for several years he was the personal assistant to Kenya Moore, former Miss USA and reality star of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta”. While John-Deric devotes much of his life into helping others including serving as a mentor for runaway LGBTQ youth in homeless shelters in order to help them reestablish themselves in society, his road to success has not been easy. In this episode, John-Deric shares his humble beginnings from childhood all the way to various rejections he’s faced as a black gay male and gives tips on how you can remove limitations in order to accomplish goals despite the negative thoughts coming from yourself and from others.
