Matters of the heart do not abide by the rules and regulations of the mind.” – Amarie Avant

“What matters most is what’s inside your heart” is a common phrase that people often say when engaging in heartfelt communication with others.  And rightly so, given that the heart is the most important muscle in our body and also serves as a major function to our existence and how we are affected by love. For centuries, the heart symbol has also been connected to Valentine’s Day because it represents romantic love.
Valentine’s Day has morphed into a global tradition. Although this popular holiday has roots in pagan traditions that began around 496AD,  in modern days, Valentine’s Day represents an opportunity to celebrate  romantic love, friendship and admiration.
A key figure that emerged as part of the modern day Valentine’s Day tradition is a  Roman and Greek Mythological Figure named Cupid,  who is popularly  known for using a bow and quiver of golden arrows to shoot through the heart of lovers to create a love-wound meant to deepen their affection.
Over the years, the heart has become a cultural symbolism for love because it embodies emotions, spirituality and romance. The heart is also regarded as the lifeline of the body and has also been scientifically proven to respond to positive and negative emotions as people contend with various areas of their lives that are often known as “Matters of the Heart”.
On  Morning Energy we are going to spend time exploring “Matters of the Heart” as it relates to various areas of our lives to include romantic love.
Join me, Renna. on Friday from 4-6am for a very special musical journey about this very inspiring and intriguing topic.  And if you miss the live broadcast, you can always listen to the weekly program for up to 7 days on the archives at https://www.wmnf.org/events/morning-energy/.

I found out about WMNF through an outreach table that was set up at Sweet Water Organic Farm during my first visit there in 2012.

I had never really heard much about community radio stations at that time and became extremely intrigued as to why a radio station would have an interest in attending and/or hosting events in the community.

As I began to learn more from the Volunteer Coordinator at that time, I decided that the station would be a great fit for me in light of my background in communications and my ongoing interest in helping others.

One of my first volunteer assignments at WMNF was community outreach. I thought what better way to reach out to the community than in the same manner that I felt WMNF had reached out to me. After about a year of doing out reach service, I decided to try my hands at voicing promos/drops since I still had a passion for the arts. I also began helping out during the marathons.

Consequently, while volunteering during one of the marathons, I was asked by a former host to consider being one of their co-host because he liked my personality and the sound of my voice. I had never done formal radio work before, although I DID have a communication degree, however, my interest while attending college at that time was more towards television than radio. Nonetheless, I agreed. In addition to being a co-host on that show (The Damn Jams )(Hip-Hop) , other shows that I have co-hosted on while volunteering at WMNF are: Thee Righteous Temple of Hip Hop (Christian Hip Hop), The Early Bird Wake Up Show (Country), Blues With A Groove (Blues ), Mellow Music Encounters ( R& B and Blues) and Kingston 12 (Reggae). However, In February 2014,

I was thankfully given the opportunity to host and produce my own show.... MORNING ENERGY..... and it has truly been an AMAZING experience and journey for which I will always be thankful for!!!
