This message is brought to you by the KoloGarde test. Cologard is a one-of-a-kind way to feel more in control of your colon cancer screening through a use-at-home test, with none of the prep that's required of a colonoscopy. So if you're 45 or older and at average risk, ask your health care provider about screening for colon cancer with the KoloGard test. You can also request a Colagard prescription today at

colagard.com slash podcast. Do not use Cologard if you have had adenomas, have inflammatory

bowel disease and certain hereditary syndromes, or a personal or family history of colorectal cancer.

False positive and negative results may occur. Any positive result should be followed by a

colonoscopy, not a replacement for colonoscopy in high-risk

patients. The Colagard test is available by prescription only. Hi, I'm Rush Missijani, founder of

for navigating midlife, one episode at a time. Each week, I'll chat with extraordinary guests

who've transformed their midlife crisis into opportunities for growth and newfound purpose.

At some point, we all ask ourselves, is there more to life?

I'm here to discover how to thrive in my second act, right alongside you. My so-called midlife is out

now, wherever you get your podcast. This week on the sugar.

I think that as black women, we have to learn how to take up space in all capacity.

When someone calls on us, we try to hurry our answer.

We don't want to speak too loudly.

We want to quiet ourselves.

And so the same way that I felt that it was necessary to take up digital space with my blog and my platform, I found it necessary to take up book space with this topic of black pregnancy.

I'm Tika Sumpter and I'm an actress, producer, and a boss. And I'm Ty Randolph, entrepreneur, entertainment exec, and also a boss.

But before any of this, Ty, we are mothers.
