EP 001 - Multilayered: Setting Boundaries Artwork

The Whole Five-Fifths

This podcast is about transcending racism through healing. Join this journey with your host, Leah Turner, a biracial woman who identifies as Black -- descended from passengers of slave ships and the Mayflower; a former attorney turned trauma-informed acupuncturist. Leah and her guests discuss healing from the painful effects of racism and offer practical strategies for reclaiming our wholeness. The Whole Five-Fifths podcast is our generation's response to the Three-Fifths Compromise of centuries past. It is a reclamation of our collective human dignity. This podcast is for anyone who is ready to heal from racialized trauma and step into the truth of who we truly are: We are Whole. We are One. We ARE Five-Fifths. New episodes drop on Mondays.

EP 001 - Multilayered: Setting Boundaries

January 04, 2021 • Dr. Gabrielle Julien-Molineaux • Season 1 • Episode 1

In this inaugural episode, we meet Dr. Gabrielle Julien-Molineaux, a healer and higher education professional, and a dear friend of mine. Join us as we embark on our journey toward reclaiming our wholeness with Gabrielle as our guide. We visit Trinidad, explore the campus of Howard University (You Know!), and learn that navigating the terrain of race and identity is a bumpy ride, no matter where in the world we find ourselves traveling. Gabrielle teaches us about setting boundaries as a form of self-care and offers other wellness tips for our voyage ahead. We also learn about the benefits of Reiki and the importance of incorporating healing practices into our daily lives.

Dr. Julien-Molineaux earned her Doctorate in Education from the George Washington University in Washington, D.C. She holds a master's degree in communications from Howard University, where she also completed her undergraduate studies. Gabrielle is a Master Reiki practitioner and teacher.
