Meet Dr. Ijeoma, a public health historian that doubles as a lifestyle blogger and entrepreneur! Dr. Ijeoma holds a Ph.D. in Sociomedical Sciences from Columbia University and spends her time researching the medial construction of diseases, running her lifestyle blog, Ijeoma Kola, and mentoring Black women pursuing doctoral degrees as the founder and executive director of her non-profit, Cohort Sistas. Cohort Sistas is a digital platform created to provide mentorship, community and resources during the graduate school journey.

Dr. Ijeoma is an OG in the blogging universe. She created her blog in 2010 when she started her natural hair journey but ultimately turned her passion for beauty, style and travel into a lucrative career that paved the way to her success today. In this week’s episode, she discusses how she channeled her individual experience in academia to find connection and collaboration, and how she uses her business and platform to do that same for others.

Dr. Ijeoma’s Lesson from the Trap takes us back to the late ’90s with a Lauryn Hill classic, “Doo Wop (That Thing).”
