Aurelia talks about taking huge steps of faith to dream big and manifest the reality she wants to see for herself through our podcast visioning and writing her book, A Brown Girl’s Epiphany.
We end the last episode of season 1 by giving a personal mantra to express our gratitude for this season of life and the ebb & flow it brings (30:28). Aurelia affirms, “we can create the life we want for ourselves” and “ideas beget ideas.” Brittany states, “It is okay to lean into the joy and the pain.” Thank you to all who supported and listened in our first season.

In episode 10, Aurelia and Brittany chat about the enneagram and how it has influenced their focus on personal expansion, empathy and understanding others better. We talk about the intersection of the enneagram and race, plus share resources for taking a deeper dive into its concepts.
To kickoff our essentials and name the ways we’re caring for ourselves, Brittany talks about how she keeps calm by taking a spiritual bath. Aurelia brings an item that reminds her of home on a family vacation (0:58).
In our roundup conversation, we catch up on pop culture and anything new to highlight (5:37), Brittany talks about High on the Hog on Netflix, and both Aurelia & Brittany connect over watching the premiere of In the Heights, and talk about reviews of the show as well as the controversy around colorism and representation (this conversation was recorded before LMM issued an apologize).
Our main conversation on the enneagram is a snapshot of Aureilia’s & Brittany’s personality type which are numbers 6 & 9, respectively (12:08). We break down the nine number system of the ancient personality typing system, how we’ve grown through knowing the enneagram, and how it’s helped us empathize with others more. Plus, we reference The Road Back to You and The Enneagram Institute as resources for continued learning and ways to know your enneagram number.
In this week’s communiTEA prompt we discuss the mantra: nuance is the tea! (41:45) Shoutout to Kristen & Larry for responding to our prompt, “in one word describe what nuance means to you.” They answered respectively with vulnerability & freedom, and we couldn’t agree more.

In episode 9, Brittany and Aurelia are talking all about social media - the impact of it in the past 15 months, the ways we utilize it to inform our reality, and curate a meaningful way to connect.
In our essentials for the week we name how we’re feeling and discuss how we work through anxiety. Brittany is practicing self-advocacy, and Aurelia is surrendering to her timeline and finding ways to stay in a creative headspace (inspired by Elizabeth Gilbert’s Big Magic to listen to your creative nudges).
Before jumping into our main conversation about our connection to social media, we share our mantra: “social media can inform my reality without becoming my reality.” Aurelia and Brittany give personal responses to the prompt on ways social media has been useful and ways we’ve needed to set boundaries with it.
We discuss curating a healthy social media space and when we’ve noticed it’s best to disengage. Plus, we talk about wokeness and cancel culture in the current age of social media.
