When Magic Happens

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and as we observe this important

time, our hosts share what Breast Cancer Awareness means to them. We talk

mammograms, the importance of knowing our bodies, and our When Magic Happens

warrior, Cheryle, shares her intimate journey as a breast cancer survivor.

It’s fall and while some might say our summer bodies are in hibernation,

WMH is here to remind y’all that a body is a body. In this throwback episode, cozy

up with us as we learn to get cozy in our skin. Slim-thick, bean pole, pear, apple –

how has your body been categorized? Cheryle, Jennifer and Taylor discuss body image

and their relationships to their bodies over time. Then, we hear from Michaela

Duerson, a plus-size model, talent agent, photographer and former gymnast, who

explains the importance of appreciating our bodies at their many stages and why

everyone is wrong.

One thing about When Magic Happens? We love our mothers down. That’s why

we’re talking about the special bond between mothers and daughters, the havoc we

sometimes raise for our mamas, and the invaluable lessons we’ve learned from our

mothers that make us want to be better humans.

Autumn is upon us, y’all, and for some of us that means sugar cookies,

pumpkin spice, and everything nice. We are gushing about our fall plans, our

favorite fall activities, and Taylor and Jennifer are on a mission to make Cheryle a

believer of the fall fever.

When it comes to chatbots and AI, are we curious or cautious? We dive

wondering about Chat GPT and AI, then listen up, because we’re here to make it make

sense together.

In a friendship, what type of friend are you, what does your circle look

like, and what does that say about you? This week, we are chatting about the many

seasons of friendship, how we show up for our people, and the lessons we are

learning about friendship every day.

In a relationship, who loves more? And is there such a thing as loving

equally, and if so, show us the tutorial! Plus, we’re joined by guest host,

award-winning journalist and WBEZ reporter Natalie Moore.

There comes a time when we all say “forget about it” and we let go,

stepping into our soul selves. What’s your moment? This week, we are talking about

the defining moments that helped us realize who we were and give less of a

Hey y’all!! We’re back and picking up where we left off, catching up with

each other and sharing what we’ve been up to and what we’re doing next. Cheryle,

Jennifer, and Taylor share their summer highlights, Renaissance tour experience,

thoughts on The Barbie movie and their plans for the fall. Come catch up with us!
