Fresh Out The Cocoon

In episode 6 I discuss the subtle ways we often relinquish the magic that is inside of us in exchange for the mediocracy society tells us we should settle for. Encouragement is given to never, NEVER settle or snuff out your shine for the sake of making this world comfortable. Listen. They gon get all these rolls honey glazed in Blackness whether they want to or not!

Whew! What a week we had in Black culture! You know a sista couldn't let this opportunity pass without sharing some of my thoughts! Episode 5 is a lil bit of everything about a lil bit of everything that went down this week! Let's laugh to keep from crying and then go see Girls Trip with the homies! Get into this!

Constantly having to hear about why people are "concerned about our health" is exhausting & when you find that the health and fitness moves folks are making is actually rooted in bogus nonsense that no one should use, it's time to address the foolishness and lay some arguments to rest! Episode 4 gets into all of that, including why the Health At Every Size paradigm is a useful tool and departure from everything that is toxic diet culture.

Sometimes, some things just need to be addressed! Episode 3 is one of those times, and some things include Photoshop & the illusions of the perfect fat body. We gon' also get into the commercialization of Black culture without the representation of Black bodies aka, "The White Girl Gaze."

Listen. East Coast summers are hard lol! If it ain't the heat, it's the humidity! The weather gets extremely disrespectful June - August out here, but have no fear! I got remedies! In this week's episode, I'm back spilling tea on what us fat girls can wear, do and all the places to shop at to beat this heat!
