Grand risings, y’all.

In this abbreviated episode of Black Mama Bearing, I’ll shares reflections for the moment we’re living in—when the world feels heavy and the headlines just keep coming.

I offers a gentle reminder: sometimes, the best thing we can do is make a difference right where we are.

This episode is like a spa day for the soul—an invitation to reset, reconnect, and return to what grounds you. I also offer a few resources to help you find good news when you need it, celebrates a creative milestone from someone close, and shares a few real-life insights that might change how you think about care, identity, and showing up for your people.

There’s a little humor, a little healing, and a whole lot of heart in this one. Tune in, take what you need, and meet us back here on July 18 for a deeper conversation about a topic that deserves our time and attention. And yes, in this house, July 5 means spooky season has officially begun.
