  • Nao and Mao are joined by special guest Domenicaa, a military veteran, licensed mental health therapist, owner and founder of @reslientreflections this week to discuss the death and murder of PFC Lavena Johnson.

    July 19 marks the 16th year of Lavena Johnson’s death and the Army’s continued silence about the truth. We honor Lavena as we discuss her life before her untimely death and murder cover up by the US Army. We hope to use this space to continue her legacy and her families remarkable drive to hold the Department of Defense accountable.
