The Black Jezebel Podcast

We are coming to the close of the "Mothering While Black" mini-series and I wanted to make sure we covered a variety of stories and perspectives, including women who choose to not be mothers. 

This week we are speaking to Jessica Brooks, MBA who shares how her childhood trauma, family pathology of sexual violence, and a multitude of reproductive health concerns influenced her decision to not be a mother. Jessica shares vulnerable insights into her life as a Black woman who decided that becoming a COO of a major fortune 500 corporation would be her dream, instead of the traditional script of motherhood and marriage. 

You don't want to miss this episode; it's raw, vulnerable, and incredible healing.

In honor of Mother's Day and my favorite month of the year MAY, I have dedicated a 3-part series to Black mothers to share their experiences of navigating sex and mental health as a mother, their journeys to motherhood, and words of encouragement for all women nurtures.

In the first part of the mini-series, I sit down with Jasmine Boudah, the Black Lotus Mother, wombman, doula, yoni-steam facilitator, published author...and the list goes on. This is an AMAZING conversation about Black mothering from a raw, open, and healing space. Jasmine recounts her journey to motherhood through generational trauma, domestic violence, PTSD, and asexuality.

She shares excerpts from her book "Mothering Through Pain and Suffering in Silence"; a collection of black women's personal experiences of motherhood; truly illuminating the struggles that many Black mothers face but seldomly share. You don't want to miss this!!!

What's Love Got To Do With It? That is the million-dollar question because this week we are talking to Tori Wilson, who shares a personal narrative of love, marriage, and the legal system. Tori candidly speaks about her experience as a wife and defendant after being charged with criminal offenses related to her now ex-husband's illegal activity.  She discusses what it was like navigating the legal system and how she has restored her life post-divorce. This episode is truly therapeutic and I know you will enjoy it just as much as I did when having this conversation. Buckle up...This one gets good!

This opening episode of season 2 is diving into the global pandemic, COVID-19, and its effects on our lives and relationships. Your host, TemaraToday,  approaches this novel virus from the lens of grief and clinical identifying how the loss of our "normalcy" and daily routines can resemble the actual grieving process of loss of life, relationships, etc. She is also diving into what it looks like to redefine and prioritize pleasure in the time of crisis and unprecedented times. This episode is not only informative, in that it provides room for self-compassion through adjusting how we view what is going on in the world, it is also inviting to create new ways of pleasure into your homes, your body, and your relationships.
