Satori Shakoor: Detroit's Funkadelic Midwife of Stories
Born Jeanette McGruder in 1954, Detroit native Satori Shakoor knew she wanted to be a star from a young age. Her wish was granted with an audition for George Clinton’s group, The Brides of Funkenstein, and later becoming backing singer for Parliament Funkadelic. Stardom takes on many forms, and hers led to an unexpected yet successful career in storytelling after traumatic life-changing events. This episode is dedicated to storytellers everywhere.
Note: This episode was recorded in 2022. If there is one regret I have besides it’s delayed publication, it’s hat we didn’t talk about the amazing costumes Satori wore on stage. A good reasons for a follow-up chat!

Thea’s Magic Mind Story
In this podcast, I share my first experience with a new type of liquid supplement called Magic Mind. Menopause has caused issues with fog brain and low energy levels— like how you feel after following your favorite band for weeks without ample sleep or homemade food! So when Magic Mind contacted me to try it with a consideration fee, I said yes in spite of my skepticism.
You’ll see from the podcast story that I was pretty excited about the results. So much so, that I asked Magic Mind to create a discount code for Herizon Music fans. And they came through!
