In this episode, we chat about being in our "Gratitude-era", Charity's brand new pink IPhone and the transformative power of perspective. Small joys, beautiful moments, and the ability to find happiness amidst life's trials. We talk about the complexities of single-hood, loving it, hating it and the pressure to 'fix' ourselves before being considered worthy of it.
Diving further into gratitude; we talk about how out of touch billionaires, like Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, and Kim Kardashian; and ask whether their wealth truly brings them contentment, and fulfillment.
Lastly, we take you beyond the glossy facade of "representation" and why we will no longer be applauding fish for swimming. From the messaging in the barbie movie, the controversial Victoria's Secret show and the body shaming that permeates our society as plus sized women to performative DEI initiatives that do more harm at work.

We're taking a trip down memory lane and reminiscing about those carefree college days when we used to live on campus; the days when the only thing we worried about was making it in time for class and our parents took care of everything else. God's hand in our academic and personal journeys and making room for serendipity in our lives. We get into the topic of some women's delusional expectations and the complex dynamics of relationships and asking men for money chile! We aren't shy about discussing the struggle of being valued primarily for your appearance, being labelled a gold digger, and how women are capitalizing on the male gaze.
As we near the end of our chat, we talk about tough love versus gentle care in friendships, and the value of allowing each other the space to grow and make mistakes. Lastly, we couldn't resist discussing the "Married Men Rizz" thread that had twitter up in arms this week and the embarrassing but all too real pain of your first heartbreak (Sorry Lupita) It's always A Mouthful! over here.
