On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

Do you feel like you’re called to do something more? Know you have a greater purpose in life, in this world? As introverts, when we are called to do something in an extroverted world we can be frozen by fear.

Bessie is a fitness and lifestyle content creator. We loved having her on because we love what she is doing to motivate women to take charge of their health via fitness! Her content resonated with us right away, and we love seeing her inspiring posts! Today's topic brought up many different topics, as usual! We talked about being inspiring to other women in the fitness industry without looking like your stereotypical woman. How that makes you relatable and real. We also talked about how important affirmations are, especially for moms, and then we discussed diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace and creating a culture that fosters inclusivity.

1 61. This One Tip Changed How I Showed Up in Every Social Interaction | TEDx Talk by Amy Cuddy 27:33
Did you know that your body language speaks just as loudly, sometimes even louder, than the words we speak?! Body language not only affects how others see us, but it may also change how we see ourselves. When Sherry learned how one simple power pose can boost her confidence and impact how she shows up on interviews, dates and other social interactions, she quickly added it to her box of "confidence resources". In today’s episode, we share Amy Cuddy’s TEDx Talk on how introverts, or shy or timid people can make tiny tweaks in their body language to appear more powerful and confident. Who doesn't want that?! As Amy shares, body language can determine who we hire, promote, ask out on a date. And interestingly, body language not only affects how others see us, but it may also change how we see ourselves. Listen as my explains how making tiny tweaks to your body language can shape your mind, and ultimately your results as you show up in social interactions more powerfully and confidently.

1 60. No Small Talk Conversation with Dr. Lilian Ajayi Ore | Conversation Starters for Introverts 39:32
Today we have another conversation starter episode: What question are you trying to answer most in your life right now? Small talk is boring and will rarely create any sort of connection between you and another person. But a good way to turn small talk into good conversation is to talk about topics that you are passionate about. When you live and lead with passion, it becomes who you are and what you tend to talk about most. Embracing your passions makes having any conversation easier. You find that you can easily weave your passions into any conversation. And today's conversation with Dr. Lilian Ajayi Ore is full of passion. As we took on today's conversation starter, it was easy to identify the passions driving the conversation and how much we are connected to our passions. Lilian certainly led with her passion for championing and supporting other women, which is the basis of her platform Global Connection for Women (GC4W). We spoke about so many things from women empowerment and gender equality to faith and God. Our conversation starters are designed to create more interesting and memorable social interactions. The great thing about our conversation starters is that they start off with one basic question, but will prompt a back-and-forth exchange of ideas and lead to other interesting topics. Use them and watch your relationships grow stronger as you share your answers and listen to others.

Today we have another conversation starter episode: What life experience defines and makes up who you are today? We absolutely love conversation starters that cause you to look within and explore your inner thoughts, concerns and life passion. A lot of times it's so easy to play it safe and talk about topics that have nothing to do with us or who we are, whether that's the news, the latest celebrity gossip or the weather. But those typically don't foster the type of connection that will lead to meaningful relationships. Today's question definitely forces you to go beyond surface small talk. It calls you to think about a moment that changed your life in a significant way, whether it was a entering a new stage in your life, a childhood experience, or an unexpected circumstance that forced you to look at yourself differently. And we invited our internet friend, Tiera Haynes to join the conversation. Tierra is a speaker, content creator, momcoach, and most recently an author. She uses her platform to empower moms to find their inner strengths and passions outside of motherhood. We wanted to learn more about her, specifically how she has so much energy to do all that she does with fun, passion and purpose. Her page is so LIVE! We know you'll enjoy her energy just as much as we do! Our conversation starters are designed to create more interesting and memorable social interactions. The great thing about our conversation starters is that they start off with one basic question, but will prompt a back-and-forth exchange of ideas and lead to other interesting topics.

1 58. No Small Talk Conversation with Yemisi Odusanya | Conversation Starters for any Situation 51:10
Have you met someone and instantly felt a connection, like you just want to talk to them forever?! Well that's how today's guest, Yemisi Odusanya, makes you feel when you're with her. She leads with authenticity, curiosity, service and confidence and her energy quickly draws you in and makes it some easy to connect with her. That's the type of connection we're drawn to and promote here on the podcast. Our conversation starter today is: What are you most worried about in our country moving forward and what are you most optimistic about? This conversation starter led to so many amazing topics such as struggling with raising our children in a safe environment where they can actually live and thrive yet keep them protected, the struggle with social media and the never ending battle with keeping a limit on screen time. (And yes - This turned into talking about setting boundaries for ourselves as adults!) That's important too! We discussed how COVID has rocked our world and going back to what will be our "new" normal. And then the optimism of having females in leadership roles, Nigerians in leadership roles, and how empowering it is for women, and especially, women of color to see. As always, we touched on everything and walked away feeling inspired and oh so good! Our conversation starters are designed to create more interesting and memorable social interactions. The great thing about our conversation starters is that they start off with one basic question, but will prompt a back-and-forth exchange of ideas and lead to other interesting topics.

1 57. No Small Talk Conversation with Delores Sarfo-Darko | Conversation Starters for any Situation 42:40
Privilege.... What are the first thoughts that come to mind when you think of this word? Anger? Shame? If you're like many, you may avoid talking about privilege or only talk about it with certain people because it can be triggering and even divisive, especially in light of the events that happened last summer. But have you thought about how YOU may have privilege? On today's episode we explore this topic with our fellow introvert friend Delores Sarfo-Darko. Delores Sarfo-Darko is a driven dreamer, educator, storyteller, and student advocate. She has a passion to help students and young adults learn to embrace their journey. Her platform, Flourish with Delores, strives to help you fulfill your dreams as you engage in her curated workshops and visual resources. We so admire how Delores uses her platform to amplify the voices of black women and as a source of inspiration. If you struggle with discussing privilege or identifying your own privilege, make sure to check out this conversation, which led to a discussion on so many other topics (as always!) Our conversation starters are designed to create more interesting and memorable social interactions.

1 56. What I Had to Let Go of to Avoid Overwhelm and Burnout as a High Achieving Introvert | TEDx Talk by Katie Rasoul 22:34
Are you a super ambitious introvert, who wants to be the best at everything you do? Well, so is Ebony, and when she heard Katie Rasoul's TEDx Talk, she thought "That sounds like me!" So we wanted to share with you this TEDx Talk, because we thought that there is probably some listeners that can relate to this as well. Katie Rasoul is a fellow introvert and author of the book Hidden Brilliance. Katie is a high-achieving introvert. Someone who feels the intense tug between the drive to achieve more and the need for solitude, between going out to conquer the world fighting with the desire to simply be alone. Ebony had a similar journey to Katie's and learned that her value is not based on accolades or accomplishments That her value also comes from experiences and our journey. And that journey includes the wins and the losses. There is value from failing and lessons that can be learned and shared from our mistakes in life. So, if you consider yourself a high achieving introvert, remember to not base your value on what you can and cannot achieve. But instead create your own definition of success, and enjoy your journey along the way.

No Small Talk- Conversation Starters for Introverts
Why is it important to shoot your shot or take initiative? Well for one, taking a chance at something can turn out to be life changing, and that life change won’t happen without your actions and initiative! Today, Ebony and Sherry are talking about their 3 experiences when they decided to shoot their shot. They are sharing about taking chances, and initiatives they took to reach their goals and the things they wanted to accomplish in life . As introverts it can be easy to stay in our comfort zone, and not push ourselves to try new things, or surround ourselves with new people. But getting out of our comfort zones and pushing ourselves is what allows us to grow and evolve. If you have a goal to improve your situation there is no getting around taking chances! Without action there will be zero results! We hope you enjoy this discussion with Ebony and Sherry, and leave inspired and encouraged to go after your goals and dreams and turn them into a reality!

No Small Talk- Conversation Starters for Introverts
We all know that the world has tons of misconceptions and assumptions about introverts: who we are, who we're not and why we can or can't be fixed. But what if the misconceptions come from your own sisters?! We expect that the very people we grew up with and lived with will see us the same way we see ourselves. But apparently, that's NOT always the case. In this episode, Ebony invites her 3 sisters, Abies Senior, Ivie Omede and Orobosa Omede to the podcast and they duke it out.

Do you ever sit back and say to yourself..."Wow, I miss feeling (fill in the blank). This could be you reminiscing about the happiest time in your life, who you were with and what you were doing; or reflecting on the person you used to be...maybe more fun? Carefree? Unafraid? Or you weren't worried about impressing anybody, you were stubborn, and determined to be who you wanted to be, and do what you truly enjoyed doing. This is what Sherry and Ebony get into in this week’s episode. The seasons of life oftentimes have the effect of changing how we see things, how we think, and how we feel. This change can be good and bad. And while we often talk about the good that comes with the journey of life, today we talk about some of the things we lost along the way and wish to have back. We also talk about: The feeling of freedom and lack of worry Why we shouldn’t internalize everything Why it’s beneficial to sometimes say “No” Links and Resources Mentioned in this Episode: Click here for our "20 Easy Conversation Starters You Can Use Anytime".
