MCU’s New Life Lessons Program: First Webinar 3/20/24 5pm MT

Our first Life Lesson is with Phyllis Jeffers-Coly (600 CYT) who will join us to discuss CONFIDENCE and how it is a crucial element for life success. Coly is the co-founder and co-owner of Diasporic Soul which she and her husband Eddy Coly, established in 2016 in Senegal, West Africa. Diasporic Soul offers heritage and healing experiences integrating culture (SOUL) and contemplative practices, including restorative yoga.  Coly is the author of the recently published book We Got Soul; We Can Heal, Overcoming Racial Trauma Through Leadership, Community and Resilience.

Currently, she is leading The Peace of Mind Project in partnership with Jamaa Health, which offers mind-body-spirit interventions that integrate culture and contemplative practices to create a safe communal space for Black Men in Cincinnati, Ohio who are seeking peace of mind in this lifetime.

In addition, she is the Assistant Director for the recently funded HBCU Radio Preservation Project at WYSO radio in Yellow Springs, Ohio. With a $5 million four-year grant from the Mellon Foundation,  the project is preserving radio material and gathering oral histories from  HBCU radio stations, including 29 currently active ones and some that are no longer broadcasting.  Before launching Diasporic Soul, Phyllis, who is a proud HBCU graduate, served as the Dean of Enrollment Management at Central State University.
