We Rise By Lifting Each Other

Black Health Lit - Promoting Better Health for Black Americans

Michelle Beck Season 2 Episode 3

Host Michelle Beck welcomes Rachel “Rae” Crowder to discuss the company she founded, Black Health Lit.

Black Health Lit’s mission is to ignite a movement that promotes better health for Black Americans through culturally specific health equity programming. With a vision of creating a world where everyone has a fair and just opportunity to attain their highest level of health.

Rachel “Rae” Crowder is the Founder of Black Health Lit and CEO and Principal Consultant of Raette Consulting. Inspired by the events of 2020 to be a part of the change, Rachel founded Black Health Lit, a social enterprise empowering individuals with health resources they need. Through podcasts and online tools, she is using her platform to connect individuals with the information necessary to be healthy - mentally, spiritually, and physically. A breast cancer survivor, daughter, sister, and cousin, she recently moved into the consulting space, taking previous work experiences and her own public health knowledge to empower others.

For today's "Happy Hour" we are learning about the Peach Bellini.

“My goal is that hopefully through Black Health Lit, Black Americans and healthcare providers will be able to support Black Americans . . . Ultimately Black Americans will be able to go into the health system and be able to navigate it and understand just like we understand our favorite songs on the radio.” Rae Crowder.
