08-04-26 The Gift of Letting People In with LaShawnna Harris, EdD
Season 2, Episode 5 | That Part by 45 Lemons
We asked the Black women in our lives a simple question: If you could talk about anything on a podcast, what would it be?
In this episode of That Part, Verta and Naa welcome educator, researcher, and entrepreneur Dr. LaShawnna Harris for a heartfelt conversation about generosity in relationships – and what it truly means to let people in.
Together, they reframe generosity as a way of living: making room for others, sharing opportunities, building trust, asking for help, and opening yourself to receive support. This conversation moves through leadership, entrepreneurship, friendship, and community – revealing that our greatest successes grow through relationships, reciprocity, and the courage to be known.
Whether you lead a team, build a business, or simply want to show up more fully in your relationships, Dr. Harris brings both research and real life to the table. The wisdom here is practical, the honesty is refreshing, and the reminder is timely: Generosity flows both ways – and receiving is its own kind of strength.
