Hey loves after month facing this wild time, that is the pandemic we reflect on what we have learned during this time about ourselves (our new-found most hated word: ''vibes'' and Bernie is unsure if she believes in purpose), the world (why we are actively trying to unsubscribe to the capitalist and whitewashing ideas we have been fed, Sandra drops some knowledge about Africain history) and our craft (what is it like to b a black creative and what are some of the internal conversations we have in intersection with our multidimensional identities)

 Ears to the ground - Episode 10

So I never really wanted to be the one to talk about the social media... because ''it's above me now''. But recently my Instagram tl has been filled with people pointing the finger at Instagram for causing their insecurities and I just wanted to challenge that thought and hopefully offer some tips on how to make Instagram an healthier place! I hope you guy enjoy it!

 Ears to the ground - Episode 8

In this episode we discuss why we believe that men can't fathom the idea of womanhood without the umbrella of their manhood, we discuss how women have been socialized and condition to cater to men. We discussed relationships with men and women, in friendship and why we don't care for compliments. This is a juicy conversation based on all of our own personal experiences.
