Welcome to the very first episode of Breaking Bread with Beyond Nrml—a new series where great food meets even greater conversations.

In Part 1, I sit down with the owner and chef of Hidden Gem Cola for a special Juneteenth mukbang. As we enjoy an incredible meal, we discuss her journey into entrepreneurship, what inspired her love for cooking, the story behind Hidden Gem Cola, and what it means to build a legacy through food.

This conversation is filled with laughter, wisdom, and inspiration as we celebrate Juneteenth by highlighting Black excellence, purpose, and community.

✨ In Part 1 we discuss:

• The story behind Hidden Gem Cola
• Her childhood and passion for cooking
• Becoming an entrepreneur
• The highs and lows of owning a business
• Juneteenth and building generational wealth
• Food, faith, family, and purpose
• Fun games and plenty of laughs

"Legacy is built one decision, one meal, and one opportunity at a time."

In Episode 44 of Beyond Nrml w/ Mya Lamis, we're talking about something many of us are struggling with right now: protecting our peace in a world that feels overwhelming.

Between constant headlines, social media, politics, financial stress, and everyday life, it's easy to feel drained. In this episode, I discuss how to stay informed without becoming consumed, protect your energy, celebrate small wins, and remain hopeful even when the world feels heavy.

✨ In this episode:

• Why protecting your peace is a necessity, not a luxury
• The difference between being informed and being overwhelmed
• How social media and news cycles impact mental health
• The importance of setting boundaries with people and information
• Why we need to celebrate small wins more often
• Supporting local businesses and building stronger communities
• Creating your own opportunities instead of waiting for permission
• Personal reflections, encouragement, affirmations, and practical mindset shifts

💭 "You don't have to carry the weight of the entire world to care about what happens in it."

If you've been feeling exhausted by everything going on around you, this episode is your reminder that it's okay to pause, protect your energy, and focus on what you can control.

In Episode 43 of Beyond Nrml w/ Mya Lamis, we're having a much-needed conversation about healing.

As I launch my new Dope Healer Collection, I wanted to create an episode that goes beyond clothing and speaks directly to the wounds many of us carry every day.

We discuss healing from:

✨ Family trauma ✨ Relationship trauma ✨ Friendship breakups ✨ Toxic workplaces & job trauma ✨ Racism and injustice ✨ News fatigue and emotional burnout ✨ Generational cycles and unhealed pain

We also talk about current events and the emotional toll they can have on our mental health. From the Chow and Karmelo cases to the constant flood of difficult headlines, many people are carrying emotional weight they never stop to process.

💭 In this episode:

• Why healing is a form of resistance
• How trauma gets passed down through generations
• Signs you're carrying unhealed wounds
• The truth about being the "black sheep" of the family
• Why hurt people hurt people—but healed people help people
• Practical ways to start your healing journey
• The story behind the Dope Healer movement

This episode is a reminder that healing isn't weakness—it's one of the bravest things you'll ever do.

💛 "The strongest thing you can do is heal from what you didn't deserve."
