Sometimes the only way to see it clearly… is to say it out loud. I Talk To Myself Sometimes is where Antoinette Arrington unpacks the life that shaped her — and talks through the woman she’s still becoming. Each episode is sparked by the nostalgic soundtrack of the 90s, revisiting the songs that carried us through first loves, heartbreaks, and grown woman lessons we didn’t even know we were learning. This podcast is for anyone who finds themselves lost in thought, processing life out loud, or replaying old songs with brand new understanding. Through single-sided conversations that feel intimate and unfiltered, Antoinette invites you to reflect, laugh, and maybe heal a little — one track and one musing at a time. If you grew up on 90s RnB and hip-hop, if you’ve ever caught yourself having “that talk” in your head, or if you just need a moment of honesty and nostalgia, this space is for you.

Mint Condition’s “Pretty Brown Eyes”: Lessons in Soft Accountability

Before there was the phrase “soft life,” there was “Pretty Brown Eyes.”

Mint Condition didn’t just sing about heartbreak — they gave us a masterclass in emotional honesty and growth through melody.

In this episode of I Talk To Myself Sometimes, Antoinette revisits “Breakin’ My Heart (Pretty Brown Eyes)” and explores how this classic 90s slow jam evolved from a song about desire into a reflection on self-awareness, boundaries, and what it means to outgrow certain versions of love.

In this episode you’ll hear:

• A breakdown of the emotional genius behind Mint Condition’s storytelling

• Why this song still defines the sound of emotional growth and discovery

• Reflections on longing, self-worth, and what it means to choose clarity over confusion

• How music teaches us to recognize the difference between attraction and alignment

This episode is for the woman who knows that healing doesn’t mean hardening — it means softening in the right direction.
