First, we want to thank everyone who joined us on Saturday. Your input is invaluable and it was really humbling to hear your feedback. We left that call with nothing but gratitude.

With that said, we hope those who were unable to join or who have more to share will join our second ATWC Community Call TOMORROW, Tuesday, 7 pm EST! We want and honestly NEED to hear directly from you, so we’re hosting a live call and inviting listeners to join us for an honest conversation about the future of the podcast.

We’ll be talking about the kinds of content you want more of, what’s resonating (or not), and how we can make the show more sustainable for us as hosts so we can keep showing up and growing with intention.

If you’ve ever had thoughts, ideas, or feedback you wanted to share, this is the time and space to do just that. Your voice truly matters to us.

Description

In this episode, we are inspired by the recent conversation between podcaster Shannon Boodram and actress Cree Summer. Together, we dissect the dynamics of leadership in partnerships, the balance of masculine and feminine energies, and the challenges of relinquishing control in a relationship that lacks the safety to do so and how this lack of safety affects our notions of generosity, affection and respect.
