Happy Women’s History Month!! This week we’re discussing the complexity of being a Black woman. Each of us are still defining and redefining who we are as women in this world and the baggage that comes with it. But not all baggage is bad baggage. From being over-sexualized to living with periods (LITERALLY), we each share stories of growing up as Black women and how society’s role has tried to vilify our image.

From young girls to mid-grown women, we take a second to reflect on what it was like growing up in a Black household. We uncover the lessons we’ve learned from seeing the adult figures we've had in our lives and the pros and cons to the examples they’ve set in our own guided path. It’s all about growth, maturity and what investing looks like for us. 

What was it like growing up in the church? Since our adolescence, we’ve attended the same church in Chester, PA. Through our journey in the church, we touch the surface of what our individual relationships with God look like in the present moment, given the morals and values we’ve learned in and out of our place of worship. As we further talk, we realize collectively, there is so much more work to be done now that we’ve gotten older. Get ready for another emotional break.

As important as it is for us to maintain a strong family bond with each other, we discuss the importance of one other need: FRIENDS. In this episode we break down our definition of friends and what they’ve grown to look like in our mid-adult lives—the lost ones, those still present and future friendships we long to form. In the midst, we reminisce on some of our favorite memories together.
