*This is a replay in honor of Women's History Month
This week on the Only Good Vibes News Network, Whistle Monsta and Jamie Bernstein welcome Holly MacKenna and her daughter, Maeve Graffagnini - authors of Inhale, Exhale...Shoot!
Inhale, Exhale...Shoot! follows Kunall the Pelican, a talented young basketball player who loves the game—but when it’s time to take the big shot, anxiety creeps in. His wings tremble, his belly tightens, and his mind fills with doubt. What if he misses? What if everyone is watching?
Set in the colorful heart of New Orleans, this beautifully illustrated picture book offers more than just a story about sports. It gently introduces children to mindfulness and breathwork as tools for managing stress, self-doubt, and performance anxiety—on the court and in everyday life. With encouragement from his coach and support from his teammates, Kunall learns to center himself, take a deep breath, and trust in his abilities.
Perfect for children ages 4–8, especially those who experience anxiety, love sports, or need a calming reminder to breathe through big emotions. Inhale, Exhale...Shoot! is an inspiring story of resilience, emotional awareness, and the power of staying present.

Pete Murano was raised all across America. Born in the Northeast, he moved to St. Louis and finally settled in New Orleans, Louisiana. He developed an attachment to an equally nomadic music form, the blues, at an early age. Starting on saxophone at age 11, he began teaching himself to play guitar as a teenager. Murano's music then underwent a natural evolution as he began to explore R&B and rock. Finding himself drawn to the sights and sounds of the Crescent City, Murano soon relocated to New Orleans. The next piece of his musical maturation would stem directly from the influence of his new home. Murano began learning the standards, becoming a working musician in the dimly lit clubs of the city's fabled Frenchmen street.
In 2003, Murano joined forces with Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue. Here, he developed a sound that was all his own, combining elements of rock, funk, and R&B. With Shorty, Murano has written, recorded, and toured the world extensively. His sound on guitar is often raw and distorted, yet soulful. Now, on his first solo release, he embraces that sound as it vibrates into the world.
Pete also runs the Apollo Clinic which brings local youth into the studio to learn about the process of making music alongside Grammy nominated and Grammy award winning musicians and engineers.

Whistle Monsta welcomes Heroes of New Orleans' Greg Ravy and Laney Chouest to the fan cave for Only Good Vibes News Network.
Founded in 2016 by Algiers native Gregory Ravy, Heroes of New Orleans began with a simple but powerful mission: to give opportunities to disadvantaged youth and families in the community where Gregory was born and raised.
Growing up on New Orleans' West Bank, Gregory witnessed the challenges facing underserved communities—limited access to quality programs, economic barriers, and systemic gaps that prevented talented young people from reaching their potential. He founded Heroes of New Orleans to change that reality.
Since 2016, we've grown from a grassroots organization to a comprehensive community institution that has impacted over 10,000 families through stipend-paid programs, vital resources, and community initiatives. Today, we operate two locations serving thousands of youth and families annually with programs spanning STEM education, workforce development, entrepreneurship training, mental health support, and essential resource distribution.
Heroes of New Orleans remains committed to bridging gaps and ensuring that underserved communities have sustainable resources and support—staying true to our founder's vision, that every young person deserves access to opportunities that help them build the future they deserve.
