In this week's episode, we are excited to be in conversation with pediatric and adolescent GYN, Dr. Charis Chambers. Together, we discuss the importance of our reproductive health and the factors that contribute to misdiagnosis. She also provides invaluable guidance on guiding adolescent girls through puberty and addresses the disconnection and trauma that some women may feel toward their bodies. In this episode, we are invited to become more knowledgeable and proactive rather than reactive about our reproductive health. Join us.

Forgive us. Antoinette's has serious technical difficulties which is why her audio sounds a but... tricky

In this week's episode, Shanti tries to keep her head above water as she juggles motherhood and other responsibilities while Antoinette recovers from a medical procedure she was not expecting to be as painful as it was. For politics, we discuss Candace Owens by diving deep into her history and what influenced her controversial beliefs. We question the responsibility of Black media outlets when engaging with folks similar to Owens and whether or not she should be platformed at all if her message is in direct conflict with the mission & vision of said platform. For pop culture, Shanti checks out the new "Good Times" reboot by Netflix & has a strong reaction. We then discuss Diddy's homes being raided by Homeland Security and the defamation lawsuit against Russell Simmons. Then we hurriedly stop recording to listen to Beyonce's newest album "Cowboy Carter". Join us...

In this week's episode, Shanti puts herself in harm's way for fried chicken while Antoinette does her best to talk Shanti off the ledge as she navigates her single life. After listening to voicemails, we delve into our main topic: We discuss the role our egos play when it comes to self-defense. When should we ignore untruths vs fighting back to set the record straight? How do we navigate the complexities of personal and public perceptions? Controlling our own narrative is everything right?
