Understanding Reproductive Rights with Dr. Kameelah Phillips Oct 25, 2021

Show notes

When a US state can mandate that a 12-year old girl carry the pregnancy forced upon her by a racist to term, endure pregnancy and delivery, BUT, the state can NOT mandate that same girl wear a mask at school, because THAT is too great a burden for the state to impose, it is no wonder that so many are saying anti-abortion laws are a war on women. We are bringing back the amazing Dr. Kameelah Phillips to lend her expertise and knowledge, and give some clarity on exactly who and what has rights, and WHAT we can do to change the tide.

LISTEN TO THIS SHOW IF:

You want to know more about reproductive rights and how they are ch-ch-changing in the US
You don’t fully understand when an embryo gains more rights that a woman
You’d like ACTIONABLE steps to take to stop Handmaid’s Tale from becoming our reality

Finding Your Self-Worth with Aja Naomi King Sep 27, 2021

Show notes

Aja Naomi King is a wife, mother, advocate, and - of course - a talented actress best known for her role as Michaela Pratt in How to Get Away with Murder. But despite slaying professionally (dozens of TV & Film roles and accolades like winning the "Rising Star Award" at the Essence Black Women In Hollywood event), it wasn’t always easy.

Life happens… and even though Aja was talented & tough, there were also insecurities to overcome… some were amplified as a Black woman due to beauty culture’s lack of representation. It stung, and it subtly, subconsciously stuck with her… and she became determined to help re-shape society to empower women of all races to feel celebrated, supported, and seen… and she found the perfect way to do it when she partnered with L’Oréal Paris to help amplify the message that “We’re Worth It.” Today, this bombshell powerhouse believes in her own self-worth... and she’s on a mission to help you believe in yours too. Tune in!
