Today we discuss the Oprah interview where Meghan Markle and Prince Harry tell their truth around why they decided to leave the royal family. We talk through our personal take aways from the conversation and look at it from the perspective of  a “black sheep” and/or scapegoat, being gaslit, and the consequences of leaving toxic professional and/or familial environments. We hope this weeks episode provides some reflection but also some comic relief during this very difficult time. #stopasianhate #truthtellers 

Enjoy!

Love,

Sam + Maki

Join us as we discuss self love and the importance of financial literacy. We recount our personal journeys with these topics, how our birth families impacted it, and how we are creating spaces for ourselves to discover what it truly means to us. We also discuss the importance of learning to love on all areas of your life, including finances, and how this contributes to your pursuit of wholeness. 

Enjoy!

On this episode, we will be covering the humanitarian crisis happening in #Tigray, the northern most region in Ethiopia. Since November 4th, 2020, the people of Tigray have been suffering from food shortages, mass violence, sexual violence, displacement, and other atrocities amounting to war crimes because of political conflict between the regional and federal government. However, the international community has remained largely silent.

We have invited special guest, Melat, #Tigray advocate, to unpack the realities of the #Tigray region and innocent people. 

This episode also launches a collaboration with Melat and others in fundraising for survivors of sexual violence in Tigray. We will be raising funds through the end of March. Stay up to date with our awareness campaign on our socials and help by sharing, reposting, tweeting, and donating! https://linktr.ee/amiwholeyetpodcast

Today we discuss what the word "out growing" means to us in regards to friendships. We talk through how we have dealt with friendships that have no longer felt aligned during a season of our lives and how we handle those relationships as well as our views on "unexpected" or "unconventional" friendships.

Enjoy!

Join us as we dive into our patterns and talk through how we are uncovering the underlying stories that shape the way we view ourselves and the world. We hope this conversation serves as a reminder that it is important to do the hard work of understanding our inner worlds and to be gentle through that process.

Today we have a conversation with our wonderful guest, Brittany Dunkley, around mental health and self care during a global pandemic, specifically from the lens of children of immigrants/first generation Americans. We felt it very fitting to have this conversation at this time as we have personally been experiencing a lot of stress around the current circumstances and have struggled ourselves to maintain our individual self care routines.

We hope you enjoy this conversation! 

 

Love,

Join us as we dive into vulnerable conversation around faith and hope and the seasons of our lives that have stretched and tested us in these areas. What are the differences between the two? And how do we remember God's promises in the hard seasons.   

We hope this conversation makes you feel reenergized after listening to it!

This one might ruffles some feathers ....

We want to be intentional in saying we love and respect our families and their humanness. This is just us processing our lives and what feels true based on our experiences.  Our truths have to be spoken regardless of who may be inconvenienced by them. It’s all love, we are just pursuing healing. We hope this one empowers you to process your own role in your family and how it appears in your present life! Enjoy!

Love,

Sam + Maki
