This is one of the best podcasts. Finally a conversation with fully formed adult women. I don’t want to hear a advice or life “solutions” from a 20 or 30 year old. The ladies keep me laughing. It’s like talking to my friends over wine. Love it!!!!!
Please make more. Love it.
Not many places centering Black women over 40. Chile, Please does it so phenomenally! I love the brilliant hosts and the relevant topics. Thank you for this soul nourishing offering!
Love. Relevant content thoughtfully executed by genuine women. A must listen!
Felicia and Ivy have created the perfect space of joy for Black women (those of us who are indeed grown and still figuring it out). Their laughter is so infectious — I cackle loudly in every episode, not caring a bit if folks think I’ve gone mad. I have to admit they have been so transparent in their truth that I do a little respectability gasp on occasion, and then I exhale into deeper self-recognition, a deeper intimacy with my own truth. And there’s always an opportunity to learn something ne... more
I saw an ad for Chile, Please on Instagram and decided to give it a listen. From the first episode, I knew this podcast would become a favorite. Felicia & Ivy work very well together and share the best stories. I’m excited to see what the ladies have planned for the community & the podcast. The conversations are nearly identical to what my friends & I talk about. I’ve shared the podcast with my friends & colleagues.
I just finished listening to the pilot episode and it was very liberating. I look forward to diving into the upcoming episodes! Congratulations ladies, this is golden!
It is great to hear conversations that relate directly to you that are so open and honest. Can’t wait for the next episode!
I really enjoyed listening to these beautiful souls. The conversation flows nicely and the topics are so relatable. This content definitely fills a space many of us need. I look forward to hearing more.
Bravo Felicia and Ivy for bringing so much fire in this 1st episode!! You touched on so many great points for black women over 40 in their careers, health and personal desires. Thanks for your transparency, wisdom and laughter!! Looking forward to the next episode!
Grab a glass of wine (or whatever suits you). It’s like catching up with old friends where no topic is off limits. And so vital to get perspectives that don’t necessarily match the mainstream narratives of success.
This is the realness and rawness that I needed in my life. Cannot wait for the next episode.
I truly enjoyed how unfiltered this conversation was. From honing in on the topic of expectations to desire...to the desire around FREEDOM, and the gem dropped by Ivy, "I have used my mothering instincts. The only thing I haven't used is my womb." I felt that.
This podcast is everything + more. Filled with humor, insight and realness CHILE PLEASE has me laughing, crying and reconsidering some things. Thank you Felicia and Ivy for your transparency.
This is the kind of advice and straight talk we all wish we’d had in our 20s and 30s.
