ATLANTA'S ANGELS --- Dr. LaQuita Parks, Diontrise Blake, and Shanita Dawson-Ugwuoke, to their credit, have taken their longstanding binding to a whole new level, courtesy of What Happens Outside of Love: A Cousins Podcast Production, their newly-released empowerment platform that has set off a fervent buzz across various message boards and social media platforms.
And above all things have fervent love for one another, for love will cover a multitude of sins.” (1 Peter 4:8/NKJV)
WE ARE FAMILY

Throughout the years, they’ve collectively established what could be appropriately described as a closeknit bond — a trio of cousins, each of whom are virtually inseparable.
Dr. LaQuita Parks, Diontrise Blake, and Shanita Dawson-Ugwuoke, to their credit, have taken their longstanding binding to a whole new level, courtesy of What Happens Outside of Love: A Cousins Podcast Production, their newly-released empowerment platform that has set off a fervent buzz across various message boards and social media platforms.
“Three cousins. Three perspectives. One powerful mission: to have the conversations most people avoid — with truth, transparency, and a touch of laughter,” Dr. Parks told Making Headline News this week, explaining the purpose for a family-based podcast that figures to help enrich and enhance lives for years to come.
“Our inspiration came from life itself, our shared experiences, our faith in God, and our desire to make people feel seen. We’re cousins by blood but sisters in spirit, bound by a commitment to keep conversations real and relatable. We wanted to create something that felt like sitting at the kitchen table, laughing, crying, and telling the truth.”
Interestingly enough, these beloved kinfolks are credible entrepreneurs in their own right.

Generally, What Happens Outside of Love: A Cousins Podcast Production customarily dives into what this trio deems “real conversations” families often avoid.
That’s not all.
What Happens Outside of Love, by all accounts, vividly explores the moments when love isn’t enough.
“Or when it feels absent altogether,” said a spokesperson for this rising podcast via https://open.spotify.com/show/39C0OtOwVIqe5HAYbETYjP. “Through candid dialogue, storytelling, and a mix of laughter and vulnerability, the cousins unpack family dynamics, relationships, healing, and the unspoken truths that shape our lives.”
In a nutshell, this isn’t just a podcast.
“It’s a safe space where authenticity meets healing, where the cousins remind us of what happens outside of love and how to get back inside,” said a spokesperson for What Happens Outside of Love.
As Dr. Parks, Blake, and Dawson-Ugwuoke recall, their challenging — yet memorable — upbringings in the ATL is what greatly inspired them to become the esteemed women of empowerment for whom they are widely known.
“Growing up in Atlanta taught us the importance of family, community, and using our voices,” Blake said. “The South gave us our warmth, our strength, and our storytelling roots. Atlanta shaped how we love deeply, passionately, sometimes painfully, and that love story continues through every conversation we share.”

Added Dawson-Ugwuoke:
“We’re at the stage where honesty outweighs perfection. Each of us has lived enough, lost enough, and learned enough to know that love doesn’t always look the way you expect. We’ve been wives, mothers, daughters, businesswomen, and friends.
“And through it all, we’ve discovered that what happens outside of love is where healing begins. Our experiences give us permission to speak boldly about topics people tend to hide behind closed doors.”
“We’ve each faced challenges that could’ve broken us — health battles, heartbreak, loss, and disappointment,” Dr. Parks continued. “But we refused to stay silent or stuck.
Our determination isn’t about competing. It’s about completing the mission. We’ve learned that purpose and persistence go hand in hand. When love fails, when life hurts, we still show up. That’s what drives us.”
