My Glow Up.” From Grief to Greatness – Shelly Palmer. Ep:4 S:5






Have you read the book ‘Dear Sis’? It is a series of short stories about childhood from black women. When I picked it up, I was immediately captivated – simply because never before had I heard stories like these from black women on such a scale. I admire them for sharing their cautionary tales about parental abandonment, resilient yet vulnerable mothers, boyfriend troubles, social services and so much more – there is so much to learn from! 



Immediately I invited 4 of the co-authors (Abigail Ohemaa Afriyie, Edith Wiredu, Monica Frempong & Lucy Ahatty) to speak about their experience. Listen to their fascinating journey to produce this book. Oh, and don’t worry, there are no spoilers in this episode. Go buy the book: Dear Sis: Childhood & Adolescence by Abigail Ohemaa Afriyie and co-authors from Amazon.

Conversation with ‘Dear Sis’ Authors. S:4 Ep:4






In this episode, I speak to author of ‘Kettorah and Autumn Scrolls of Light’ Sandra E. Carter.  



From her early beginnings as a rap artist in Birmingham, to now an established writer, Sandra frankly describes her fight to overcome her learning disability to go on to become one of the 4% of Black writers in the sci-fi fantasy genre. Definitely an inspiring listen.

“I’m Proud.” Black Sci-Fi Fantasy Author Sandra E. Carter. S:4 Ep:3






I was so blown away and humbled as I heard Yvette Browne’s journey from an unsupported child with rock-bottom self-esteem to an at-peace, confident woman taking risks to reach her potential.



Throughout her life she has battled: teachers who called her ‘thick’, her dyslexia, anxiety and major self-doubt. However, despite her challenges, she always found a way to tune into the quiet but persistent whisper that told her ‘I know you’re scared but take the risk anyway.’



Yvette is now a highly sought-after therapist with a book on the way. She feels more self-assured than ever. Trust me, everyone needs a little Yvette in their lives.



If you’re looking to be uplifted, listen to this Time to Glow Up Podcast episode.
