Episode Transcript

As a black woman myself, I am team all black, everything. And I humbly cheer on black women as they're excelling and succeeding in their lives. And I think that there's always room for all of us to, to get a piece of the success and the spotlight. I enjoy creating and I enjoy being in safe spaces that reflect the gentleness, the love, the care, the honesty. and the softness that black women embody, even as society strives to tell the world differently. We know what we deserve and we deserve nice things and we deserve joy. We deserve ease, and we deserve tenderness to black women. If you're listening, you're amazing. You brighten up whatever space you're in, and I absolutely love being in the black skin that I'm in. So that being said, As a member of a marginalized community here in the US I [00:01:00] know that supporting black women, Benefits all women. And so here I stand as the embodiment of blackness, and that means all of my stories will be told from a black lens. So I don't have to rah-rah, I don't have to hold up a sign whenever I walk into a room saying I'm a black woman. It is obvious and all of my experiences and the stories that I recount will be through the lens of a black woman.
