Straight Up, Sis!

Who doesn't love a good sex talk?! In our final episode of season 1, we talk about SEX! With soooo much to cover and so little time, we speak on sex in education, consent, the "freak" meter and much more. Sex can be a wonderful part of life and we want to shed some light on it. Hopefully you learn something new! Thank you for tuning in each week and please stay tuned for season two. Till then, keep it straight up! (no pun intended HA)

Handed down to us as a right of passage through ancestry, history, and identity. We're sharing our stories, experiences, and knowledge of Black hair.  We will rock it and celebrate it and not let it be appropriated and that's on Mary had a little lamb!

HAPPY BLACK HISTORY MONTH!!!

This week we're talking about colourism in the Black community. We speak on light skin privilege, colourist examples in media and how we as Black women and people can work to unite and be aware of our own biases. Hope you learn something!

Go best friend, das my best friend! You betta WIN! Celebrating your friends successes should be second nature, but is it? We're exploring the differences  between envy and jealousy, the beauty of saying "congratulations!", and the power of knowing who to allow access to. At the end of it all, tell your bestie you proud of them! We promise it'll make you feel good.
