A Monday Moment with Dr. Mal

In this week’s “A Monday Moment with Dr. Mal,” I dive deep into the importance of honoring those who came before us—our parents, grandparents, mentors, and community leaders. I share personal stories of how I’ve learned to appreciate their sacrifices, their wisdom, and the quiet ways they’ve paved the road for our success. Join me as I reflect on what it means to “give your elders their flowers” now, rather than waiting until it’s too late. Let’s celebrate their legacies while they can still feel our love and gratitude.

00:00 Grateful for overcoming doubt and achieving dreams.
