The Melanin Exchange

Lately there seems to be a shift happening. Myself included, along with many other have experienced shifts in relationships. Tune in as MaStaysha and I discuss her recent loss of 20 plus year friend after many chances given, misalignment, and the block list. We have all been there or are currently here. If you're the friend always initiating contact with others or are trying to bring everyone along in your circle, this episode is for you. Here's a secret: Everyone can't come along on your journey. 

The Melanin Exchange breaks barriers having a conversation about what was supposed to be mindset & manifestation with guest, Madison Rose, mindset and manifestation coach. However, being that the podcast is Pro-Black which doesn't mean anti-White, the episode took a turn to discussing mindset and the Big 'R' word with our first White guest when other podcasts wouldn't allow her to be a guest. You don't want to miss this!

Shaquana Davis, author and mompreneur from Season 2, Episode 2, shares her journey of breaking generational curses including born to her mother who abused drugs, toxic female relationships within her family, and more! 

Warning: This episode is completely unedited. Part of this platform is authenticity and sharing stories of women who wear many hats including mom. So you may or may not hear a baby and nature in the background for your listening pleasure. 

Continuing the Motherhood-ish Series, of course the male perspective is valued too. Male Talk Mondays discusses Mama's Boys. Tune in as Rich shares his perspective of not being the typical Mama's Boy, defines the term, and ways to remove the "bitch-assness". Jill also shares experiences of dealing with Mama's Boys personally and professionally. You don't want to miss this whether you've dealt with Mama's Boys, you're raising a Mama's Boy, or identify as a Mama's Boy. 

Self-love is the best love. Sometimes self-care can be lost going through the best and worst times in relationships. Tune in as social worker, Jillian shares her authentic experience with divorce and ways she is continuing to heal and relearn herself through self-care. 

It's Season 2 and we're back and ready for a busy season!

This topic was planned before last week's foolery at the US Capitol, but now it's needed more than ever! Tune in as my friend Dirrick, founder of Project OneTen and I talk politics, civic engagement, and the White House who the White House is for, but built by us.

A discussion with Arkeeda Jones about the historical topic of colorism among Black women in education, social media, and pop culture, and ways to navigate the barriers starting with children.
