In our conversation we tackle what her experience was like becoming the mother of three girls and the challenges she faced that most black women can relate to. From the excitement of becoming pregnant to the life threatening discussions of her battling Preeclampsia in the birthing of my twin sisters. This is part one of our discussion on black motherhood. Part two will focus on the critically acclaimed film, A Thousand and One, starring Teyana Taylor.
