Show notes

Six Months, One Mission: What We Built Together + The Legacy of Our Children Oryne Stewart Sr., producer from The Leon Thomas Group, joins Deneen L. Garrett to close out the first six months of WOC Live — freestyling through the season, unscripted, Mr. Rogers-style, as guests from the WOC Live neighborhood popped in throughout the hour. Deneen and Oryne reflect on what WOC Live set out to build back in March versus what it's become, then shift into an unplanned but overdue conversation about parenting — sparked by May guest Violette Omotosho — digging into entitlement, financial literacy in the Apple Pay generation, access versus earning, and why letting kids fail is a form of love. Along the way, five past guests surprise-joined the live show: Santana Inniss (calling in from Portugal), Dr. Connie Y. Bell, Nicole Seabrooks (mid-celebration for her twins' 17th birthday), Tanya Spencer (calling in from Copenhagen), and RIMIDI (mid-relocation on a Miami Dade College campus). In This Episode Six months, one mission: what WOC Live set out to build vs. what it became Parenting in the entitlement era — money, access, and the generational pendulum Why cash (not Apple Pay) teaches kids the real value of a dollar Letting kids fail forward — from Richard Branson's forest test to "become a resource, not the source" Five past guests surprise-join live, calling in from Portugal, Copenhagen, and a college campus mid-move A tease: something big is coming for WOC Live before the next season Guests Who Joined Live Santana Inniss — Founder & Executive Director, The Glow Initiative (Glowi) | glowi.org | Guest Profile Dr. Connie Y.
