It’s SZN 3 y’all and we are going to get right into it! Welcome to the Mom Bits Podcast. Today we are continuing our chat about anti-racism parenting and something we all could do better with….our language. What we say when we converse with our children and how that can subtly/unconsciously get ingrained in their minds. I know saying or agreeing with the statement that cops only catch bad buys comes from an innocent place but think of the people who are automatically added in, people suffering from a Mental Illness, Homeless people, Those who are stealing food for their families because that’s the only way they can afford it, etc. Police intervene when people do bad things. They are not all bad people. Especially when minorities are over represented but are forced to live in food deserts, low-income areas with a low chance to make it out of tough neighborhoods. 
Either way, let’s talk about it!!

**PRE-RECORDED EPISODE**
Hello and welcome back to the Mom Bits Podcast. Today, let's chat about how people are desperately clinging to these TikTok and Instagram accounts of people essentially being their virtual adoptive parent, grandparent, sibling, friend, etc. What makes people gravitate towards those accounts? How come we don't go to those real people in our lives to feel special and loved? Let's talk about it.

Hello and welcome back to the Mom Bits Podcast. Today, let's chat about going through Loss and how hard that can be as we navigate motherhood. I also share some points that have helped me get through. Let's talk about it.

* Communicate!! How you are feeling, how you are doing and what you need.
* Accept help. Whatever form it comes in.  Whether that's in the form of someone offering a listening ear or a meal.
* Seek a counsellor or therapist. They can help walk you through your emotions as well as the steps of grief with no judgment
* Give yourself time and KIDLESS space to work through your feelings
* Give yourself grace

Healing is a process. It looks different for everyone and that's okay.

Hello and welcome back to the Mom Bits Podcast. Today, let's chat about how my recent trip went flying with a 4 (now 5) and 3 year old. The total travel time each way was about 4 hours. Short flight but needed much prep nonetheless. And don't get me started about our trip to the ER 72 hours before that. *insert rolling eyes*

Let's talk about it!!

Hello and welcome back to the Mom Bits Podcast. Today let's chat about the Harry and Megan interview with Oprah. I know its been a minute since it aired but I wanted to wait till it down before I posted this episode because I feel like emotions would be down and we have a little more Tim etc think clearly as people who got a TINY glimpse into their lives. NOT to be mistaken with knowing how they really feel and what actually went down. At the end of the day, we still know very little.

Hello and welcome back to the Mom Bits Podcast. Today let's chat about the whole Kerrion Franklin and Kirk Franklin leaked phone call. 
*DISCLAIMER*
I want to preface this podcast episode by saying that I am not picking sides and I am not here to judge Kerrion or Kirk. What I wanted to talk about instead, is the aftermath of the leaked audio and the things people had to say. And I am specifically going to call out grown folk in the Black Community. We need to do better. This is why we still adults dealing with childhood trauma, neglect and abandonment issues. Not to mention maladaptive attachment styles. 

Let's talk about it!!

Forgive me for being MIA you guys, this pandemic and the multitude of lockdowns have hit me hard (like many of you) and I hit a rough spot. I experienced symptoms of depression. Not being able to go anywhere and do anything especially for my kids was incredibly hard. Its been a year. I literally cannot take anymore of this. 
On today's episode, I am working to get back to my routine so we are just going to chat about what I've been up to. Let's talk about it.
