From Work Mode to Healing Mode with Stacey Anderson

In this episode, I sit down with Stacey L. Anderson—a husband, father, Kappa man, community leader, and entrepreneur—to talk about grief, faith, and healing. Stacey opens up about experiencing multiple losses over the years, including his brother, father, grandmother, mother, and best friend. He shares how he used to go straight into work mode to hold everything together, and how therapy helped him finally slow down and process the pain.

We talk about the importance of finding the right therapist (especially for Black men of faith), learning to receive support the way we give it—“eat what you serve”—and staying grounded through prayer, journaling, and scripture. Stacey reminds us that while grief changes us, it also grows us. As he beautifully says, “You can go there, but you can’t stay there.”
