It’s time to prepare. Get your pens and notepads ready!

Over the last 16 months, we’ve all had to shift and learn to cope with the new ways of life. The whole world stopped and at times it feels like we could possibly be moving towards a dystopian future like the ones we’ve only seen in the movies or read about in novels. And now, it seems as if we may be headed back into lockdown. God stopped time once, possibly so we could reflect, take stock, and get ourselves together. At the moment, we are filled with questions and uncertainties. Now is the time to pay attention and make the necessary preparations for the possibility of quarantine part 2.

We cannot come out of these moments the same way that we went into them. It’s time to utilize our time and these moments as opportunities to see the bigger picture in all its truth. If we must go back inside, let’s look at the whole picture and do what we need to do to be better, healed, and whole on the other side. We must get ready for something new!!

*We are still physically separated, but always meeting on one accord.

Black women are constantly being told what to do, what we could do, should do, etc…. Even what respect looks like. We have always had to balance and break the chains that have tried to keep us bound. Respectability politics used to be one of the laws of survival for black people. Our pain aversion to healing, makes moving past desired acceptance rather difficult. Every aspect of our lives seems to be a "thing."

Even a bonnet is not just a bonnet. It has been a status and class symbol, a way to protect, as well as a force of shame and dominance. Black women’s hair is so powerful, there were laws made against our hair. There is an urgency to reclaim our power, creating holes between generations. In this conversation , we raise questions of respectability politics and the necessity of moving forward for future generations to be free.

Dolla Dolla Bills. Paper. Cheddar. This week we’re talking Money. There’s things we believe about money:

*There’s power in money
*Our relationship with money matters
*There’s a difference between having money and wealth
*Our emotions are entangled within our money
*Our relationship with money begins early in our lives

There are so many constructs in the way we view money. It is something we believe we must grind for, wearing ourselves out to get to the next level. We try to manifest financial power, but we're not necessarily manifesting the things that will feed our spirit. So get out your shovels as we dig deep and shine a light to break down your old & build up new ideas and beliefs about funny money.

P.s. What if we may be thriving and don’t even realize it? What if the green is the wrong color to be focused on?

We are constantly hearing the words "self care," but what does that truly entail? During these "self care" sessions our nails and hair may look beautiful (which is great, don't get us wrong), but our souls are being neglected. Our souls are crying out for rest, but we keep not answering the call. We are conditioned to keep moving, keep pushing, don't stop or be considered lazy from a young age. We as black people have a legacy of hard work, determination just to have something to pass on as a legacy to future generations. Once God created the world, he saw it was good & rested. We hope you receive this message and rest well. ❤️

Fell free to join the conversation in our facebook group and tell us about how your care for yourself and your soul: https://www.facebook.com/groups/goldsgirlsgod

Who sets the standard of beauty?

We as black women have always been told & shown that we aren't considered to be the standard of beauty, yet other women strive and pay for ways to achieve our body types and assets. We are all built the way we are for a reason. We are fearfully and wonderfully made. God built your body perfectly for a purpose. With lip injections, butt implants, and waist shapers, many are striving to fix something that ain’t broke. “Your form in all its original glory is BEAUTIFUL.” It’s time to appreciate, learn about, and be comfortable in our own bodies. Stand firm in the truth that your form is beautiful, perfectly made, & divine.

It’s our last episode of 2020! Thank you for listening to our first year of Golds, Girls, & God! On this episode we reminisce about the year, our show, the ups and downs, and lessons learned. Some of the epiphanies we’ve had, especially about our black girl magic and divinity, have developed and changed a bit since first introducing certain topics on the show. Going deeper into some of the issues we’ve covered while revealing some secrets, we come together to look back and give some advice for your chains in 2021.

We’ve talked about parenting, rachetness, our beloved city, divinity, faith, breaking cycles, and everything in between. There’s so much we’re grateful for this year. We are blessed to have great families, good friends, and wonderful listeners like you! We pray you have a wonderful holiday season and an abundant new year!

We all have a role to play in this game of life. During this past year, with everything we've known shifting and changing, we have had to adapt and find new strengths. Sometimes, in order to learn and harness our new skills we must take advice from the wise words of others. Other times, words of the past can help us to unearth the pain in our history to propel us into our future, healed and whole. We must form authentic connections with our sisters, building a collective, unstoppable sisterhood to build strong foundations for the future with the power to heal ourselves and change the world.

Warning: This episode may make you scream out loud, text your girls, and give you a tingle in your elbows! Get out your shovels, We've got tombs to raid and destinies to fulfill!


During this holiday season, we pray you and your family stay safe, stay healthy, stay blessed. Continue the conversation and share you thoughts on the episode in our facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/goldsgirlsgod

Childhood experiences shape and mold us for our future. The experiences and lessons we learn, give us the tools to build & solidify a foundation as we grow. During our formative years, the accomplishments, memories, and struggles, create our beliefs that we as children carry over into our adulthood. Over the years our accumulating baggage needs to be unpacked & reevaluated from time to time in order for us to grow. When we don’t unpack our baggage, we cannot heal or grow from the building block that once shaped us. The fear of what's in our baggage keeps us from unlocking our true potential of our destiny. We no longer will be afraid of what's we keep in our baggage. 2020 is the year to do something new and step boldly into our future- No longer imposters, but our full redefined, destiny bound selves.
