Most of us have default emotional responses that we inherited from our parents. When you think of your relationship with your father, how present was he in supporting your emotional development? On this episode of BlackFor30, we discuss the impacts of fathers within African households, more specifically with the emotional maturation in their children. I am joined with my co-collaborator Sean Solole to discuss our own experiences, as well as, the experiences of our parents in shaping how we grew and matured.

Is your narrative your foundation or is it an anchor? This monologue is my introduction to you, the listener. A reflective view into who I am, through words that offer a retrospective description of where my journey began,  where it has led me to, and what I have learnt along the way.  These thoughts and experiences have helped me identify my purpose in order to 'walk my why'. Being black - what does it mean to you?
