"Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, its self-preservation and that is an act of political warfare" -Audre Lorde

Was heavily inspired by Audre Lorde's quote last weekend and went to my first ever spa. I talk about how guilt crept its way into my self-care day and who is taking care of caregivers?

The Bachelorette is back and we have school teacher Michelle Young looking for love. If you watch the show you might remember her as the one Matt (the first black Bachelor) didn't choose. Matt f*ck*d up 🤷🏽‍♀️ #thebachelorette

A bald head, some puppies and plus-size models... EP.2 of #tsrthickhouse is back and we're in for a ride!

#blackdovedoc is back on and yet once again we get to see that relationships are WORK, but the good kind. You know like the kind where you wake up in the morning and complain that you have to get up but when you get there you realize how lucky you are because you are doing what you love to do. It's organic.

Speaking of organic and all things natural, the beauty industry is shifting directions AGAIN. Natural is in and it might be here for a LONG time. I give some insight on that and we have a FIRST BLACK OWNED K- BEAUTY BRAND on the market. #loveandmakeuppodcast #blackpodcasts #blacklovepodcast #blackkbeauty

How can you date an officer during this time?

It's a question that I've been asked often in the past few months. Honestly, it's been challenging and I had to really think about how I was going to move forward in both my partnership and society. How could I equally take part in the condemnation of police brutality and sleep next to a person who represents the very system that is oppressing my community?

Today I talk about how that's been for my family and 3 Things to Help Ease Tensions in the household. These are ways that not only families in similar situations can implement, but also ways that allies and community members can utilize to continue to have an open and honest discussion about our current state and how we can move forward.

Talking about codependency can be a very sensitive subject, but this week I share some personal accounts of my experience with codependency as well as some ways to identify whether you or a loved one is part of a codependent relationship. I discuss the book "Codependent No More" by Melody Beattie https://amzn.to/2YG8oJ0. If you are looking for some lowcost psychotherapy consider Therapy Apps like Talkspace & Betterhelp that offer sessions for a low rate. Thinking about starting a podcast?!
