Hi everyone! today's episode focuses on skincare and what I did to clear up my skin for good. It's been a journey but I'm so happy with the way my skin looks and wanted to share what I did to clear everything up.

Hi everyone! In today's episode I discuss recent books I've read, recent pop culture moments, and review all about love by bell hooks.

* Please note when I discuss celebrities and their diet/practices my goal is never to shame them but to have a discussion about how what they do may be harmful. At the end of the day, you really don't know what else may be happening behind the scenes, and what I talk about is based on information I've seen in small bits and pieces.

Hi everyone! Today's episode discusses spirituality and some concepts I still struggle with. Also, there is a noise in the background which I now realize are my necklaces hitting each other while I talk so this will definitely be fixed next episode and I'm so sorry if it was distracting!

* ps: these are just my personal observations and I think what's true for one person might be false for another one, but its more the idea that if you think you are better than someone simply because you act in a different way, that defeats the whole purpose of being spiritual.

I'm back! In this episode, I discuss the dangers of financially depending on a partner and the idealization of the 50s housewife. This is a very complex topic so I may have missed some relevant info but hope I got the overall message across in a nuanced way.
