They Really Don't Matter
Love languages have been the latest hot topic on social media, but do they really hold THAT much weight? This episode goes in depth to explore the exact opposite of what you've known about them, along with educating a bit more on what actually does matter in relationships..
Breaking Down Barriers
Do you know why Black people are much less likely to receive much needed mental health services? BARRIERS and they come in many different forms, sometimes even from our own people. This episode dives into the many challenges we face that prevent us from receiving adequate mental health support and what we can do [together] to get around the issue.
The Silent Killer
So Unprepared
Remember those days when you couldn't wait to grow up and "You better enjoy being a child as long as you can" was the first thing adults would say in response? Wellllll, they meant every single word. Transitioning into adulthood can be difficult and I dig into exactly why that's so in this episode.

Pilot Episode: Intro
Ever been nervous about something to the point that you put off forever? Wellllll, there comes a time when you just have to say "F*ck it" and face your fears.
