"JAZZY J" JANELL W. EDWARDS OCT. 16, 2025 , THURS. @ 630pm This video features an interview with Janelle W. Edwards, also known as Jazzy J, executive director of FCSO (Fed Community Service Organization) (4:08). The organization's mission is to foster health and wealth among young men and women through service (4:14). Key discussion points include: • Definition of Wealth and Health: Janelle defines wealth as the "ability to make others wealthy" (4:36) and shares her personal health journey, having been nearly 300 pounds in 2006 (5:52). She emphasizes that health and wealth go hand in hand (4:23). • Motivation for Health Initiatives: A turning point was attending the Global Obesity Summit in 2010 (6:12) where she learned about the high rates of childhood obesity and the potential for shortened lifespans due to chronic conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure (7:01-7:24). The realization that "parents will bury them too" (7:38-7:40) profoundly impacted her and her husband, leading them to address their own morbid obesity (7:47-7:55). • Fat to Fit Olympic Games: To make getting healthy fun, Janelle and her husband co-created the Fat to Fit Olympic Games (8:48-8:51). This initiative aims to eradicate health disparities, particularly childhood obesity, which disproportionately affects black and brown children (22:25-22:43). The event emphasizes physical activity and moving the body, contrasting with modern sedentary lifestyles and the lack of traditional physical activities like playing outside and doing chores (25:25-26:36). • "Coded" Behavior: Janelle introduces the concept of being "coded" to certain foods and behaviors from a young age (9:16-9:58). She explains that this "food coding" can lead to unhealthy habits, and understanding this language is crucial for correction (10:25-10:31). • Divine Nine Line Dance Health Challenge: FCSO is hosting a virtual fundraiser and health challenge from October 1st through December 16th (39:02-39:07). This event aims to make getting healthy fun and is open to everyone, not just members of the Divine Nine (33:49-34:00, 41:15-41:18). It encourages participants to make an investment of at least $1 to register and gain points, with proceeds going towards purchasing bicycles and cash prizes (39:39-39:58). • Personal Journey and Accolades: Janelle shares her extensive background as a leader, humanitarian, mathematics teacher, master cosmetologist, talk show host, author, and executive director (18:03-18:44). She highlights her appointment to Governor Phil Bryant's healthy teens task force (19:34-20:07) and her recognition as a "remarkable woman" by NextStar Media Group (28:00-28:05). She emphasizes her life-long dedication to community service (28:48-28:52) and believes in contributing to an organization rather than just receiving from it (44:03-44:14).
