For Good Trailer: Heal Yourself, Change The World
Healing isn’t just personal—it’s powerful. What if taking care of yourself was the first step to changing the world? This is the trailer for For Good, a one-of-a-kind podcast rooted in grounded, soul-level conversations about mental health, emotional intelligence, personal growth, and what it means to live with intention. Here, healing isn’t a trend—it’s a lifelong commitment. Through vulnerable storytelling and honest reflection, For Good helps us reconnect with purpose, reimagine legacy, and choose growth—for ourselves, our families, and our communities. At the heart of it all is Joseph “JoJo” Simmons—son of hip hop royalty Rev Run of Run DMC—and a multi-faceted entertainer, entrepreneur, husband, father, and mental health advocate. From MTV’s Run’s House to Growing Up Hip Hop, JoJo’s journey has been public—but his evolution has been deeply personal. After facing public scrutiny in his teens, JoJo stepped away from the spotlight to prioritize his mental health. He reemerged as an advocate, determined to use his platform for good. In 2023, he received the Phoenix Arising Award from the Black Mental Health Alliance, honoring his commitment to wellness and emotional literacy in the Black community. JoJo brings a rare mix of humility, humor, and heart to every episode. Whether he’s solo or joined by a guest, he creates a space for listeners to reflect, reset, and rise together. Expect episodes that explore the power of emotional intelligence in real life, mental health beyond buzzwords—especially for Black men and fathers—breaking generational cycles through inner work and intention, and what legacy looks like when it’s built on love, not ego. You’ll also hear honest, unfiltered stories that inspire growth, healing, and a deeper connection to purpose. Notable guests include: Dr. Cheyenne Bryant: Life coach and psychology expert dropping truth bombs on relationships and accountability Lil Eazy-E: Reflecting on his father’s legacy and the controversy surrounding his death Trell the Trainer: From prison to purpose—using fitness and emotional vulnerability to help Black men heal Vanessa Simmons: On protecting her personal life while growing up in a public family Steve Lobel: Behind the music industry grind—on hip-hop success, grief, and staying grounded Corvain Cooper: From life in prison to presidential pardon—a story of transformation, justice, and second chances Jesce Horton: Building one of the most respected Black-owned cannabis brands with Carmelo Anthony
