Join MProper Mimi and stylist Alysha with our sister Obioma as we chat about life, entrepreneurship, parenthood and the new Universal Hip Hop museum. We go from cutting up about hot girl vs. warm girl summer to serious convo about entrepreneurship and education. It's always a therapeutic good time in the salon.

S2Ep7: Sometimes I amazed at how without even trying the topics that we discuss on MProper Mimi in one way or another often seem to intersect. This reminds me of a quote by Audre Lorde - "There is no such thing as a single-issue struggle because we do not live single-issue lives." Looking at the issues we have talked about with our Mproper Mimi guests as Black and Latinx women and people we can see how one issue overlaps with another. So while it is a short episode today, join host Mimi Jacks as she talks about why each of these issues are important and why she is passionate about them.
