  • A Mouthful About The Lessons That I've Learned in 2021
    This has certainly been an eventful year for many of us and I have taken it upon myself to unpack that in this episode. I do so by listing five of the greatest lessons that I had to learn this year - whether willingly, or under life's duress. In this episode, you will hear me lament, praise, and thank 2021 for all it has been (and perhaps could've been).

  • A Mouthful About Hair... Again
    'Mouthful' made its debut with an episode where I discussed the relationship between black women and their hair. Well, consider this episode a 2.0 version of that. In this episode I discuss the evolution of the Natural Hair Movement. I do so by using the imagery of a 'mental sandwich'. Does the state of your hair, as a black women, determine your blackness? Does straightening your hair denounce your blackness? Is there even a link between your hair and your blackness? Tune in to hear what I have to say about this!

    Hey besties! I'm back and I am certainly not holding back this episode! Join in on the conversation around our experiences and strife as black women, how we can maneuver around that and some unsponsored Love Island promo lol. I specifically speak about the experiences of Simone Biles and my girl Kaz, who are both figures in the public eye that are reflective of many of our experiences. I would love to know what you think!

  • Labouring For Love

    Prompted by an Instagram post that I discovered a few days ago, this episode has me spiraling as I talk about how I've laboured for love. I speak on how my family dynamics, patriarchal conditioning, faith and many other factors contribute towards my idea and understanding of love, and how that influenced how I express myself and choose to be vulnerable. I also touch on friendship dynamics as well as the idea of reciprocation in relationships and friendships.

    This week we have a very lengthy and nuanced conversation with Thato Megale on age dynamics in romantic relationships, how they're influenced by culture and historical contexts. We also discuss the disparity between the 'traditional' African model of what relationships should look like and the Westernized idea of relationship dynamics. Finally, we get into power dynamics and the complexities around consent.

    This week I want to talk about what appears to be another social pandemic on its own - misogyny. Specifically from women who exhibit 'Pick Me' -ism. I go into the meaning of the term, how it manifests itself in society and why we could definitely do without it.
