Like the title says Women Are Better, but sometimes it's a hard knock life... This week I open with some sentiments on this vax mandate for public service workers and the "cry" to get jabbed up for the greater good. I question why we didn't stop lynchings for the greater good, why gyms aren't free for the greater good and health of everyone among other things. Why are the heroes of yesteryear now the 2021 villains?

Then I get my emotions in check and talk about all the physiological changes, ups and downs and irregularities women go through. Periods turn you into a different person-it's scary. Then on a more serious note we get into a more taboo topic, fertility. Conception issues, miscarriages and stillbirths are still common today in Canada. Many of us still suffer in silence and shame, and after an important conversation with friends I wanted to open up a space for others. Thank you for listening.

Are you spiritual? Where do you think we go? Do you think loved ones stay with us spiritually? Have you danced with death, because I did.

Let's talk about perspective! Comparing ourselves to all the "milestones" and goals our parents reached at our age helps no one. Think about who you'd be as a married 20 something with children. Think about the conditions they were able to flourish in-the cost of living versus the livable wage are no longer close. Enjoy what life is offering you-it's beautiful.

The Closer. The truth. I briefly discuss the lessons and eye brow raising moments from Dave Chapelle's current special. The racial and social lines he towed, and what coculsions he's drawn from it. I take time to discuss how his telling of the truth and his experience regardless of likability doesn't make it crude or harmful. The truth can be unlikable and uncomfortable. That's where our growth lies. Enjoy and I'll be back next week!

Men. I love y'all. Do better for yourself. Love yourself better. Ladies do not throw your man's vulnerabilities back in their face. Lastly, we all need to love ourselves. Tell yourself you love you at least once a day.

Our unfiltered, first live listen to Certified Lover Boy! There are no ads in this episode because I don't want The Boy coming after me. 

Vicktorea has been a long time friend and soul sister of mine! She oozes muse energy, loves music, all around beautiful, and loves to read-SEND HER YOUR ARCs. She gives incredible reviews at Goodreads, and is ever present on Twitter. Sending her a book or book recommendation is her love language. You'll find her information below so y'all join her booksta family. I'm so happy we got to listen and discuss this together!

This was an excellent body of work-to us. It came across very raw and vulnerable and like he stated previously on Skorpion it felt like he was, "Pulling back the curtain..."  From the opening of Champagne Poetry sampling The Beatles' Michelle, Masego and G.H. Delegation. Top to bottom the most noticeable samples to me were Life After Death Intro (Love All), I'm Too Sexy (Way 2 Sexy, Nig*aaz Ain't Barin' Dat (Knife Talk) and the controversial Half on a Baby (TSU). It's a bit jolting how much he shares, because my goodness... We want to give him a hug more than anything at this point. Although we would've loved a few name drops some songs didn't require it because we knew. We have some questions for the boy after listening:

Let us know your thoughts after listening!
