  • "Australia Day"

    In this weeks episode Ginny and Aj dig into another controversial and yet imperative conversation... "Australia Day".


    Australia Day claims to be about unifying all Australian's, and yet ironically, it’s a divisive, horrible and day of mourning for many Aboriginal people.


    Aj who' s been working hard on her newest workshop "Deconstructing Australia Day" busts your common misconceptions and myths and Ginny yarns about her journey from "Change the date" to "Abolish the date".


    So what do you think... Should we change the date? Save the date (*insert eye roll*) or get rid of it altogether?

  • "Let's yarn about sex, sis"

    "Join us as Ginny and AJ navigate new terrain, as they discuss everything SEX. This is the first of many conversations, they pair plan to have in regards to discussing a topic that has been greatly stigmatised and evaded within many Indigenous spaces as a mixture of cultural protocols and colonisation.


    We also have a yarn with the amazing Anthea Balfour. Anthea Balfour is proud Khoisan Woman, Indigenous to South Africa, and has called Australia home for the past ten years. Anthea is Somatic Psychotherapist, Cultural Ambassador for the Mental Health Foundation Australia; and Managing Director at the QueenMode Collective. Educating internationally on relationships, sexual & emotional wellbeing & leadership, Anthea takes some time to answer Ginny and Aj's burning questions around exploitation and sexual liberation!


    This conversation is a reflection of the growth of both Ginny and AJ, as they discover their identities as strong Blak women in contemporary society."

  • "Interracial Relationships + Dating"
    "Join us for the second episode of Unapologetically Blak, as we promised this episode is driving feet first into a conversation that is often glazed over by so many of us. Interracial relationships, the highs the lows and the stories that are embedded to them. Ginny and AJ have both dated outside of their race and have lived experience in relation to navigating these spaces as Indigenous women in contemporary society. Sit back sip a beverage, make sure it's not too hot because the tea we're serving is boiling. This is the introduction to this project, as the duo become more comfortable and confident with speaking their truths. Thank you for tuning in, you won't regret it...."
