BONUS: Forever Changed: Parenting, Sexuality & Identity in Netflix’s 'Forever


Listen Later

Netflix’s Forever gave us more than a coming-of-age love story—it opened the door to deep conversations about parenting, sexuality, and what it means to grow up Black in predominantly white spaces.

In this episode, we unpack the themes of the show and how they connect to our real lives:

  • What it means to parent Black teens with both freedom and protection

  • How faith intersects with conversations about sexuality and emotional intimacy

  • Navigating identity in PWIs (predominantly white institutions), and what we wish we had growing up

  • The generational shifts we’re making as parents and partners

Whether you’ve seen the series or not, this conversation is about showing up with honesty—for our kids, for each other, and for ourselves.
