  • S1, EP 11 - Love Thyself & Be Creative.
    "My body my rules" are the words that we keep telling ourselves to make it through a society that constantly wants to tell us how to look and what to look like.
    Fat shaming, thin body shaming and all other shaming is just not cool and we at thrive table are not here for it.
    We share our experience and what we believe you should tell the next Kendrick Lamar hotel who wants you to come in Afro or not.
    We also discussed the difficulties of being a creative of colour, all the obstacles and hurdles to jump and how we can respect our coloured dolllar or pounds to elevate people who respect and acknowledge our humanities.
    We share our experience with nude photography and also our new creative ventures.
    Salem is launching her poetry book "Uyai" this Friday and Adeola is launching her digital magazine "Distinguished Diva" by women of colour on Wednesday 26th of April.
    Our baddass diaspora of the week is KEZCOO a creative photographer and cinematographer who is working on a series of body positive images. Kez Coo: http://instagram.com/kezcoo
    We also celebrate Ijeoma Umebinyuo the writer of "Questions for Ada" a collection of touching poems every diaspora will relate to.

  • S1, EP 5 -International Womens Day - For all the magical women we have met & the ones in our future.
    Wow! This was such a sweet episode friends.
    Lots of YOU women in the world are doing amazing things & never publicly validated for your work. Consider this your affirmation and your incentive to keep going on. The world needs your beautiful contributions, but don't do it for them, do it because you have a fire in your bones and the joy that comes from doing the things that lights your up.
    Here we FINALLY discuss the Beyonce & Adele Grammy episode. Why collaboration is powerful especially for minority women if we thrive. How to find a mentor and to end out we share stories of the women that have impacted us the most in life.
