Have you ever wondered what it's like to be homeless? Have you ever questioned what it takes to overcome such adversity and create a life of giving back and making a difference? Tiana Hicks, mother of Najee Harris, shares her incredible journey in this episode. From her humble beginnings in the San Francisco Bay Area to the life-altering experience of homelessness, Tiana's story is one of resilience and strength. She opens up about her upbringing, the influence of her grandmother, and her own determination to provide for her five children.
We also explore the remarkable work Tiana does through her organization, Da Bigger Picture Nonprofit Foundation. The Foundation aims to address homelessness and hunger, issues close to her heart due to her lived experiences. Tiana’s commitment to her community is inspiring and sheds light on the often misunderstood and overlooked nuances of homelessness. This episode encourages a more empathetic understanding of the issue and offers a fresh perspective that can only come from someone who lived it.
In a more light-hearted segment, we delve into Tiana's personal life, getting to know her through her pet peeves, her memories of the rookie dinner, and the songs that soundtrack her life. This conversation with Tiana is more than just an interview; it’s a celebration of her journey, a testament to her strength, and an exploration of her ongoing mission to give back to her community. So grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and get ready to be inspired by the remarkable Tiana Hicks.
