side effects of the soft life

we've all seen the "soft life" trend and various reactions to its popularity. some see it as another materialist trend while others have embraced it. today I investigate some reasons why "the soft life" might be hard to adapt to in a world that forces us to be hard all the time.

Hey, family! I am super excited to finally release this episode today! I interviewed a young woman named Anissa Hyde for New Orleans, La, about her love for conservation, how she's trailblazing for other future Black environmentalists in the South and much more! This has been one of my favorite episodes of the season because I challenged myself as a writer and an editor, but also because I get to share another one of my passions with y'all through this dope interview.

Let's Talk About Friends

Hey family! I hope y'all have had a great week so far. Today I wanna talk about the things I learned on my journey to true friendship. Friendships are just as important as romantic relationships or the one you have with yourself. Pour into them + hold your people accountable, and watch your circle thrive.

Parents Are People, Too

Hey, family! I hope y'all are having a great Friday! Today's episode is about how we need to add more context to our parents' lives to truly understand them. They had lives, burdens, and trauma well before you were born. Like I mention in the episode, I do not condone any babd bahavior or abuse from parents to their children, quite the opposite. But I have found that de-centering myself from their actions and parenting choices, has helped me see they have just as much going on as I do (sometimes with half the resources). I hope you get meaningful conversations from this episode. Please let me know what you think!
