In this powerful and eye-opening episode, Nikky sits down with Sasha for a raw conversation about colorism — the unspoken wounds and biases that exist not just in the world, but within the Black community itself. Together, they unpack what it meant growing up with different skin tones, how family and society shaped the way they saw themselves, and why “Black people can be racist too” when it comes to how we treat each other based on complexion.

Sasha opens up about the labels often placed on darker-skinned women — “aggressive,” “intimidating,” “too much” — and how those stereotypes still impact identity, confidence, and relationships. Nikky shares her own experiences as a biracial, lighter-skinned woman navigating assumptions, privilege, and pressure, and what she had to unlearn about her own ethnicity and heritage.

Through honest storytelling, funny moments, respectful disagreements, and real-time reflection, the two explore how colorism shapes childhood and womanhood.
