Is there significance in every name? Some names are passed down from generation to generation to build belonging in a family. Some names are chosen for their meaning and others are just chosen because they sound cute. No matter the reason why your parents gave you a name, you have the ability to make it fit who you are now.

On this episode of BGF, Ava and Tashaunda discuss Ava's recent name change. One morning she woke up and changed her name! They will discuss meaning, identity, coming into your own, and how to reclaim your power.
