  • Thank you

    Loved the interview with Bernie Mac’s daughter . It was fun and light hearted … yet emotional at times. I was definitely crying, when y’all were crying. You asked all the right questions. I hope she gets back into podcasting . Thank you for shining light on her and allowing those who didn’t know her story, to hear it in her voice.

    Thank you

  • I heard and felt that!

    The last episode hit me. I thank both of you for it. I know I’m my own enemy. Need to get that out of my system. But what hit me was “How are you going to be a millionaire, and hang around bums. You’re not going to be a millionaire.” WAMSHEE

  • Great podcast!

    I’m a new listener. I’m only on episode 19. But this is great podcast to listen to. It’s really refreshing to hear from ladies who have gone through things that I’ve gone through and that come from the point of view of women of color.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Truth About Trauma: How Childhood Pain Can Shape Your Life
Q: What signs indicate someone might need trauma-informed care and support?
Signs include recurring triggers, self-destructive coping like substance use, difficulty forming healthy relationships, and a sense that past events continue to govern present reactions. Access to professionals who follow the individual's lead and validate their emotions is crucial.
The Truth About Trauma: How Childhood Pain Can Shape Your Life
Q: Why is it important to distinguish between trauma and other mental health issues in treatment?
Because many people are misdiagnosed when the core issue is untreated trauma; recognizing trauma allows therapists to tailor care to validate the person's experiences and to teach tools that address triggers and regulation rather than just labeling symptoms.
PRETTY OPEN: I'm An Art Therapist w/ Pierra Brown
Q: How does art therapy differ from simply doing art or coloring for well-being?
Art therapy involves a therapeutic process guided by a licensed professional with ongoing processing of emotions and experiences; art as therapy may involve art activities without the full therapeutic framework.
PRETTY OPEN: I'm An Art Therapist w/ Pierra Brown
Q: What are the educational requirements or credentials needed to become an art therapist?
A master's degree is typically required, followed by supervised hours to become registered, and then potentially board certification; certification can help differentiate a clinician from a casual art facilitator.
My Journey With Skin Bleaching
Q: So Eboné, do you want to share your story?
The guest describes their initial curiosity, the decision process, and the realization that sharing openly could help others, while acknowledging the mixed reception and the importance of being honest about the journey from the start.
