About three years ago, Dr. Portia Lockett started The Azal Benne’ Lockett Foundation in memory of her son, who tragically passed away in December 2020. The foundation supports people who are dealing with loss and trauma by connecting them with helpful services like counseling, financial resources, and training.

I recently had the chance to catch up with Dr. Lockett to talk about the “Permission to Day" on May17th —an inspiring event filled with amazing speakers, live entertainment, and good food (yes, breakfast and lunch!). The whole day is focused on healing, bringing hope, and comforting people as they work through their grief. Dr. Lockett said that you will leave Permission To Day ”feeling so uplifted and so encouraged, knowing that no matter what space you're on in your grieving journey, you can make it."

About Randi Myles:

I am a child of God that has a lot to say.

Here you will find conversations with artists, authors, speakers, and teachers within the faith-based community. Also, my journey has been colorful, rich, and sometimes really hard so, I look for answers and respite through these posts. My mom wanted me to write a book and I'm working on that, so bear with me as I fumble my way through.

I am working on balancing my extremely fun work life with my personal life that is filled with challenges these days. I know that God will see me to victory so... welcome to my life.

Randi Myles is the mid-day host on Detroit’s Praise Network. Randi’s mom knew she was destined to be in some form of entertainment when even as a small child, she would pretend a pencil was a microphone and sing and charm family and friends. Later she would sing in church and college choirs. However, it wasn’t until she attended Specs Howard School of Media Arts, that Ms. Myles would find her true voice. Randi enjoys writing about the city of Detroit, faith, and the community.
