About this listen

What’s Good With You is back—and we’re starting this season with a powerful and deeply personal conversation.

In this episode, Nia Queen and Chef Beanz welcome back author, social worker, and advocate Rasheeda Imani Jones to discuss her newest book, Justice for Omar. Rasheeda opens up about the emotional toll of her brother’s wrongful conviction, the complex grief of loving someone who’s still alive but not free, and the mental health journey of balancing advocacy with self-preservation.

We dive into the impact of systemic injustice on families, how writing became a healing tool, and what it means to keep fighting when your heart is heavy. Rasheeda also shares her favorite self-care practices and how joy has remained a form of resistance.

🎙️ Tap in for a season premiere that’s raw, real, and restorative.
