October 25, 2020 46: Being The Only One (Guest: Amber Jenae)
Today, we are going to discuss what most of us have experienced, “Being The Only One” with our guest, Amber Jenae. What do we mean when we say “Being The Only One”? We mean being the only black person in a work environment, in your position, or at the decision table. There are so many internal and external battles that we have to deal with when we are the only ones. Isolation, imposter syndrome, discrimination are just a few to name. It is basically inevitable for most of us to have experienced this lonely feeling especially in corporate America which is synonymous with white America.
Amber Jenae resides in Northeast Ohio with her toddler son. Amber Jenae attended Thiel College and received a bachelor’s in Business Administration (Accounting). While at Thiel College she played Women’s Basketball and later became a Hall of Fame Inductee. She has been a high school girl’s basketball coach and recently an official for the sport. She serves as the President and Vice President on local community school boards. She’s volunteered as a mentor and community organizer. Amber Jenae has an MPA (Masters of Public Administration). She’s worked in Insurance, IT and most recently government.
Amber Jenae believes it is important to discuss being the only one because she herself has been in that position since middle school age and feels discussing it will outline the obstacles and discuss maneuverability for black women.

October 18, 2020 45: Pampering On Pennies
Black women are amazing! We lead, teach, fight, nurture, build, carry, innovate, and more. There's so much we can achieve when we set our minds to it. Even at our lowest, we often push forward, resisting defeat. But as strong as we are, we have one weakness...we rarely take the time to care for ourselves. Eventually, we are bullied into self-care by our tired bodies or concerned loved ones. With the commercialization of self-care increasing, it can feel more like a privilege than something you should be doing anyway. As a full-time black woman, we want to assure you that self-care is not reserved for the rich and perpetually free. So today we’re offering 5 ways to pamper yourself with little time and on pennies.

October 04, 2020 43: Mansplaining Monsters
What is mansplaining? Mansplaining, a term that in 2018 was added to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, is a verb describing “when a man talks condescendingly to someone (especially a woman) about something he has incomplete knowledge of, with the mistaken assumption that he knows more about it than the person he’s talking to does.” It’s when your male co-worker decides during the team meeting after or while you’re speaking to interject his narrative into play. In a nutshell, mansplaining is an arrogant and entitled expression of privilege. “Splaining which will now refer to mansplaining as for the rest of this episode is often done to people who have historically not been heard, i.e. black women. It is done by people who have historically been recognized for sharing their opinions.
As a professional black woman, you more than likely have experienced ‘splaining during your career. We decided to do an episode about how you can address and handle mansplaining monsters in your workplace.

September 27, 2020 42: Introduction To The Great Hair Debate (Guest: Corporate With Cornrows)
Our entire lives have centered around a constant for as long as we can remember, hair! If you want to accept it or not, your hair has been a conversation piece. As a black woman, our hair has been the message board to the world, as to where we’ve been and where we’re going. The interesting thing about this Great Hair Debate is, it never ends. Today, we want to dive into “The Great Hair Debate” of how hair discrimination in the workplace causes black women to constantly shift and blur the lines of self-identification.

At 26, Olivia Savannah Logan is a coffee enthusiast and an unapologetically black woman working in the legal industry as a real estate paralegal. After experiencing discrimination central to natural hair and race, she created the Instagram account “Corporate With Cornrows” to celebrate diversity and black beauty within professional spaces. Outside of work, she recharges through spending time with her family, traveling, and snuggling in her plushy bathrobe.

September 20, 2020 41: Clear The Clutter, Clear The Mind
Have you ever felt that wonderful feeling when you have finally cleaned and organized your space? The sense of accomplishment you feel after taking in a deep breath and observing your work accompanied with a smile and both hands on your hips. (Take in a deep breath and let it out). It feels great, right? When we are unfocused or in a bad place emotionally, our environment usually reflects it. When we’re stressed, we tend to solely focus on the problem in our minds. Clearing clutter is therapeutic because you are finally directing some of that energy into something concrete with tons of benefits.
Today we are going to discuss how clearing the clutter can actually clear your mind.

September 13, 2020 40: Swearing For Self Care
As a child, we learn there are 26 letters in the English alphabet. Each one with its own look, sound and standard, colorful illustration.Young scholars are taught letter combinations and special sounds in order to build the vocabulary. Fast forward through the years, and we learn grammar and sentence structure until pretty soon we’re essay writing, speech reciting machines with a spectacular vernacular. However, there exists a subset of words that were never on any spelling exams. That’s right...Curse Words! Today, we’re going to talk about the benefits of swearing and how they can relate to your self care journey.

August 30, 2020 38: Challenges Of An Ambitious Black Woman (Guest: Highkey Woke Podcast)
Today, we want to discuss tackling the challenges that arise when we as black women are ambitious within corporate america. There are all types of obstacles that tend to arise on our paths to success. We’re excited to have the hosts of Highkey Woke with us to dive into this very topic.

Highkey Woke Podcast is a safe space to discuss all things Corporate America, the Culture, Politics and how these three components relate to and/or influence the Black experience. Co-hosts Sheunopa and Symone were co-workers first, and they would vent to each other about their day to day responsibilities and experiences that they encountered being Black in the workplace. Those discussions evolved from initially just being about work to also include the many worlds outside of work. They figured that if they were having these discussions between the two of them, why not take their dialogue and turn it into a podcast because they knew others were having these same conversations.
