In this episode, we had to give it straight with bloopers and all. 😂 we close out season one with our thoughts on the challenges, learning moments and of course our favorite episodes!!👏🏽 tune in one last time ❤️❤️

In this episode, we discuss the racial tension and police brutality that is occurring during a pandemic. In this current climate, black lives are being killed, traumatized and hurting. We talk about the injustice of black lives that were murdered due to police brutality and how the “All lives matter” saying is trying to drown out the voices of the Black Lives Matter movement.

We provide a 3 in 1 perspective of being black women, believers and mental health advocates. We breakdown how the recent events  are independently and collectively impacting the Black community, mental health and the church. We address the issues and needs at hand without putting a Jesus band-aid over it. We acknowledge the gospel and its purpose, but also do not turn the eye for the injustices and bloodshed that is taking place.

From protesting, advocating, and coping we provide some useful tips and skills to promote compassion, support, empathy, understanding and self-care during these painful and tumultuous times.

In this week’s episode we get personal and discuss betrayal trauma in the church. We previously touched on church hurt and how broad it can be, so we specify the root of some things and we take off the gloves this episode 👏🏽🙆🏽‍♀️

We breakdown what betrayal trauma is and how it plays out in the church and the affects it can have on the (believer). The purpose is to bring to light the patterns of abuse and bad leadership signs that occur within the church and to recognize it.

Brooke, Zoe, Ciara and Bri all share their personally linked experiences with betrayal trauma in a ministry they were members of. We openly discuss how the betrayal directly and indirectly impact us and our walks individually and collectively! Tune in as it gets a little rocky and real.

In this week’s episode, Bri got caught in the hot seat on Pop Scripture! Find out if Bri gets tripped up with the verse and see how she mixes in her own perspective and relates it back to faith and mental health! Enjoy everybody!

In this episode we address how sensitive it can be to deal and interact with people during particular hardships in their life and how faith is meant to be the ultimate source, sometimes a persons approach and interaction can impact this process as well. Brooke opens up this episode to touch on her experience of loss, faith, and what meeting her where she was at looked like for her. We have discussed confrontation, and hurt, but meeting someone where they are at is particular selfless and special dying to self process. Hold their hand in this process and don’t let go because it looks different for everyone. Sit with me. Can we do that?

Another episode of midweek meetup! We address the topic of perfection. We bring a resource that helps to navigate the thoughts of perfection and we focus on the progress to help ease the stress. Progress not perfection can help you see better results, be more gentle with yourself, and set a better chance to see your goals and efforts with grace. Tune in as we meet you during the week with some counseling tips❤️

In this episode we dive into connecting the mental framework of self and how the way we view ourselves can either help or hinder us, especially with our Faith. Our special guest James adds great conversation on this topic about how inadequacies and flaws create that voice in our heads, but we are still able to make a choice and combat it with the truth. Is the way you are viewing yourself helping or hindering your walk? Tune in as we break down some cognitive distortions and try to replace with positive affirmations, self talk and confidence!

This week’s pop scripture is a girls edition with Zoe, Azaela, Brooke, and Bri. We had to do Rock, Paper, Scissors to see who was pulling the scripture of the day! Tune in to find out the lucky winner and hear who relates how this scripture helped a sex trafficking victim change her way of thinking.

In this episode, we take the time to touch on the topic of speaking in tongues. 🙆🏽‍♀️😱 We have special guest Tierra (@tierrahardin) to weigh in on the matter and we discuss our experience and journey that this topic in the body of Christ and how it has negatively and positively impacted our walks and understanding of mental health. Tune in as we add a sprinkle of comic relief to keep you smiling! ❤️
