February 01, 2021 Now We Know: Black History Month
Did you know Black History Month started with Negro History Week? Many thanks to those before us who did the work in making sure there was room for us to learn what we know and can expand upon today. May we be radical in dismantling to learn who we truly are in the best effort push forward positively as a people. We’re also celebrating a few greats who hadn’t gotten as much recognition and thank them for doing the work for those to follow their footsteps.

January 11, 2021 Now We Know: Martin Luther King Jr.
Allow me to introduce you to Jonathan Stokes, co-host of the branch off of your favorite podcast, a monthly series of Real. Relatable. dubbed “Now We Know”. Jonathan and I unpack major topics surrounding learning, unlearning and re-learning what we should’ve been taught about our black history. As MLK Jr day approaches, we launch the first episode of this series with focus on honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his legacy for humanity. What didn’t we learn? What do we know now?

December 03, 2020 Dating as a Single Mom: Uncuffing Season with Guest Lauren Oliver
It’s time to let our hair down and talk about what dating looks like during a pandemic with that extra layer of complication for single moms. I definitely shared some things that went beyond my typical comfort level 😬 but I can’t call this Real. Relatable. without pushing that boundary particularly when surrounding the topic of dating.
This week we have a special guest joining us who definitely relates to the struggle. We get into it on how our individual growth within and outside marriage has shaped our approach to dating and speculate on what the real meaning of friends with benefits means. Throw on something comfy, your drink of choice and tune on in.

October 20, 2020 Realigning to Create My Happy Place
In the year of trials and tribulations, I decided I would challenge myself. In doing so, I felt more empowered than ever and ready to take on what I didn't think I would before. I'm buying a home (again), which means I really am dedicating myself to Idaho.

September 04, 2020 Growth Amidst this 2020 Level of Tired
I think we've all been tested across the board this year. How we're showing up is a testament to who we truly are. It doesn't mean we're not tired or that we'll stop pushing through, if anything we have learned we have to continue to fight.
