Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3...

Hi! I'm Anthonia Akitunde, the founder of mater mea (www.matermea.com) a website that celebrates Black women at the intersection of career and family.

Our first episode is me shooting the breeze with the lovely Ylonda Gault, author of "Child, Please: How Mama's Old-School Lessons Helped Me Check Myself Before I Wrecked Myself."

We're talking about hot nannies and the challenges of being a working Black mom. Though some of the references may be a little dated, the conversation is on point—get into it!

mater mea is executive produced by Anthonia Akitunde, O. Valerie Nicolas, and Kimson Albert. The podcast is edited by Tyrell Worley.
