Hosted by Shevora and Byron-Gabriel, Whittenburg Drive: The Podcast is a space for real conversations about mental health, healing, and the courage it takes to keep moving forward.

In this powerful episode, Byron-Gabriel sits down with longtime friend Kerry Smith for an open and heartfelt conversation about depression. Kerry shares how unexpected life changes uncovered a silent struggle she hadn’t fully understood — and how reaching out for help became the turning point in her journey.

Together, they discuss the stigma around mental health, the strength in vulnerability, and why it’s okay to not be okay.

Whether you're navigating your own mental health path or supporting someone who is, this episode offers compassion, hope, and the reminder that you're not alone.

We’re kicking off Season 3 with a fresh voice and a familiar face—our brand-new permanent co-host, Shevora Barrow! In this episode, we celebrate over 20 years of friendship and dive into a lively conversation about everything from the uniqueness (and sometimes complexity) of baby names, to the quirks of pronunciation, and the importance of mental health. We get real about why it’s perfectly okay not to be okay—and why we all need to normalize that. Tune in for laughter, reflection, and a new chapter of the show with Shevora by our side.
