In this episode, Dr. Yndia and guest global wine traveler Stephanie Browne, founder of Sipping Sense and Divas Uncorked, discuss all things related to wine, culture, leadership, and connection. Drawing from more than thirty years of corporate experience in Human Resources and DEI at Blue Cross Blue Shield, Stephanie shares how her professional journey, as a cultural connector who celebrates Black life through food, wine, and storytelling, has shaped her approach to hospitality, entertaining, and inclusion. They also discuss her new book, Sipping Sense: Uncorking the Flavors of Wine, Entertaining and Healthy Cooking, the evolving landscape of wine culture, and why gathering intentionally remains a powerful expression of identity, confidence, and belonging in African descended communities.
