With over 500,000 podcast listeners voting their choices for the final slate, I am proud to announce that IN MY HEAD with Jay Blessed is the first Caribbean podcast nominated at the 15th Annual The People’s Choice Podcast Awards.

Since its launch in May 2019, IN MY HEAD with Jay Blessed has provided critical services and resources via this podcast, which is focused on mental health from a Caribbean perspective. I am honored that a worldwide organization such as the Podcast Awards would acknowledge my work, amongst such great professional podcasters. We have already won through our nomination!

Caribbean Podcast Nominated at 2020 Podcast Awards

IN MY HEAD with Jay Blessed has secured its spot on the top 10 Best Health podcasts category and awaits final decision by 5500 random podcast listeners, who will decide the winners in all 20 categories: including Society & Culture; Arts, Comedy; Games & Hobbies; Government & Organization; Kids & Family; Religion & Spirituality and Health.

I am unaware if any black podcasts or podcasters of color have been nominated for 2020 or if any have ever won in the past 15 years, however, I am entirely sure that IN MY HEAD is the first Caribbean podcast and Jay Blessed is the first Caribbean podcaster to be nominated.
