Introducing Inherited: A New Podcast Where Health, Culture & Community Meet

Meet Your Hosts: Two Visions, One Mission

Jessica Sanchez knows what it means to build from the ground up. As the founder of Daughters of Both Suns, her work has always been about more than just "resources." It’s about creating a home for the heart. When she talks about healing circles, she’s talking about the raw, unfiltered moments where we realize our struggles aren't failures: they’re reflections of the world we’re navigating.

Dr. Valencia Henry is the clinical powerhouse. With over 20 years of nursing experience and a Doctorate in Nursing Practice, she has seen the inside of the system. She knows where it breaks, and she knows how to fix it. At VQS Access Health, she’s redefined what primary care looks like by putting the person before the chart.

Together, they aren't just talking at you. They are walking with you.

Why the Tagline Matters

"Where health, mental health, culture, and community shape the conversations that change generations."

We chose these words carefully because they are the four quadrants of a whole life.

• Health is the vessel.

• Mental Health is the captain.

• Culture is the map.

• Community is the crew.

If one of these is missing, the journey feels impossible. By bringing them all into one conversation, we stop treating ourselves like a collection of symptoms and start treating ourselves like the complex, beautiful humans we are.

The 8 Core Pillars We Keep Coming Back To

These eight pillars ground the conversations we are building through Inherited. They help us move from surface-level talk to the deeper work of healing, equity, and real community change.

• Health Equity & Healthcare Disparities - Exploring the root causes and solutions to systemic inequities in healthcare.

• Mental Health & Emotional Well-Being - Honest conversations about anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, and culturally responsive mental healthcare.

• Culturally Aligned Care - Why healthcare that recognizes cultural identity leads to better outcomes.

• Women's Health Across the Lifespan - Reproductive health, maternal care, menopause, chronic illness, and advocacy.

• Community, Advocacy & Systems Change - Spotlighting organizations and leaders working to improve access.

• Faith, Healing & Resilience - How spirituality and evidence-based care can complement each other.

• Autism, Neurodiversity & Caregiving - Practical resources and stories for families navigating neurodiversity.

• Breaking Generational Cycles - Examining what we inherit and how we can shape the legacy we leave behind.

You are Invited to the Table

Inherited is primarily focused on the experiences of Black and Latina women: those whose stories have often been relegated to the footnotes of medical journals or the sidelines of "mainstream" wellness. But while our center is specific, our table is wide.

We welcome everyone who values inclusive care, everyone who is curious about the intersections of culture and health, and everyone who believes that when we heal women of color, we heal the world. 🌍✨

We want to hear from you. Do you have a story that needs to be told? Are you an expert in one of our eight pillars? We are currently looking for guests to join us in these vital conversations.

The Next Steps in Your Journey

Healing isn't a race. It’s a rhythmic, sometimes messy process of unlearning and re-becoming. Whether you’re listening to us while driving to work, folding laundry, or taking a much-needed moment of solitude, know that you are part of a movement.

We invite you to explore our new digital home: ✨ Visit our website:inheritedpodcast.online ✨ Connect with DOBS:www.daughtersofbothsuns.org ✨ Find Clinical Care:VQS Access Health

The legacies we carry don't have to define our limitations. They can be the foundation of our liberation. We’ll see you in the first episode.

With love and resilience,

The Inherited Team
