This episode of Woke Mommy Chatter is a special one—first recorded back in 2018, before the pandemic, before the uprisings, before the global spotlight on the unique challenges of Black motherhood. We're resharing this conversation with Brianne DeRosa, because while so much has changed, the reflections and resonance still hold power.

Listening now, in 2025, you might hear something different. The context has shifted, our language has grown, and our sense of urgency has sharpened. This episode is a time capsule, but it's also a mirror—reminding us of where we were and what we still must carry forward.

We're especially loving TikTok these days—it's where you'll see more of the real, unfiltered side of me and this work.
