Hey lady! This week Terri and Dr. Dom pump up the volume and encourage you to do the same as you listen to the fun and inspiring wisdom from Dr. Arlene Gordon-Hollingsworth, co-founder of the uber popular Gracie’s Corner, a show dedicated to showing Black kids that learning is fun and something they can be excited about!

Arlene and her husband Javoris were inspired to create the energetic, engaging kids YouTube show during the pandemic. They noticed that while they searched for educational programs for their toddler and infant they also needed a form of edutainment for their eldest daughter Gracelyn, the muse and voice actress for her eponymous show. One day Javoris turned to Arlene and let her know he noticed the lack of representation in those shows and wanted to do something about and thus Gracie’s Corner was born! The two parents didn’t have a huge team or financial backing to get the show off the ground. They just had a deep belief in their mission and desire to figure it out with the tools at their disposal.

The dynamic husband and wife team credit the bulk of their success to keeping a focus on the family and maintaining their authenticity. And, supporters have noticed! They’ve attracted a loyal fanbase that tune into the show in the billions of views. Yes, you read that right, Gracie’s Corner has more than a billion views. Thanks to superstar contributors like Snoop, Big Freedia, Charlie Wilson, and Paul Wall the show keeps a fresh perspective on education and entertainment.

So, if you have a little person in your life and looking for ways to turn screen time into enjoyable enrichment time, tune in to this week’s episode and find the groove that will keep you and your loved one uplifted and singing along with Gracie!
