This week I was inspired by the founders of @GirlTrek, and their 21-day walking meditation project remembering Black women in History. Each day we celebrate and remember our foremothers... So far my dedication to this walk has given me knowledge, reclamation and a personal commitment to radical self care. This week, I recorded myself during my walk remembering Audre Lorde, black poet, feminist and activist.

As I reflect on Queen Audre Lorde and the imprint she left on Black HERstory, I recall the importance of using my voice as a tool of radical self care, redefining what protest is for me and sharing my experience of the countless losses of Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, and Ahmaud Arbery.

On this week's episode, Bri speaks to guest Kristen @thepolecologist about her many roles as a mother, Psychologist, wife, and Pole dancer. We touch on her experience with Postpartum Mood disorder and how pole has allowed her to reclaim herself and her body and given her the ability to explore sensuality and sexuality as a mother. Most important, we talk about destigmatization of the "sexy mama".

It's so hard to be vulnerable as a Black Wombyn. We hear: "strong black woman" and "independent black woman" and believe we have to move in isolation vs. community. When really, independence is an illusion! As said by Latham Thomas of Mama Glow, "humans evolve to be dependent"! So listen as Bri (Big Mama) and her Doula Sisters: Perpetual @perpetualanastasia, Surrenity, and Tanzye @tanzyehill talk about their organic connection and giving themselves permission to be open to receive, reciprocate and love in community.
