Episode 1: Girls Need Love (Not Fixing)

Why do people rush to fix women’s pain instead of honoring it?

In this first episode of Girls Need Love, Dr. Malesia Britt and Chanel Beckford begin an honest conversation about faith, emotions, healing, and the pressure women often feel to move past pain too quickly.

Together they explore why presence can be more healing than advice, why God is not threatened by our emotions, and how well-intentioned spiritual language can sometimes cause deeper harm.
