“The self-work that needs to be done to nurture a successful, happy, long-term relationship...you have to do it.” - Jazzmine Raine

We’re getting vulnerable with this one as Jazz and Kelsey dive into their past (and present!) self work for fostering healthy interracial relationships. Sharing lessons learned from previous relationships, and experiences with racial stereotypes and privilege, this episode is full of necessary reflection (and will deeply resonate with our community for navigating both platonic and romantic interracial relationship). 

While Kelsey covers their experience in both an interracial and long-distance relationship, Jazz shares her previous fear of not being accepted into a new culture and family, and the journey to embracing new traditions, communication styles, and lifestyle practices.

Tune in to hear Jazz and Kelsey dive into:

• The self work that needs to be done before you can nurture any relationship.
• Systemic racism, cultural customs, and gender roles within relationships.
• The need for intention in communication, especially when language barriers are present.
