I loved this episode, very eye opening!
Amanda, I absolutely love your podcast and YouTube channel. I don't use apple or iTunes for the podcast, but I would like to go there and help you keep this going. You speak to much truth a d you help me keep going and being strong. can instruct me as to how to get to iTunes and give you shout-out! ♥️✌️
This might be my favourite episode yet. The part about "hustle" and the strain on our mental health is REAL! Work smarter, not harder. Hustle makes us all stressed out!
I loved this episode, really reasonated with me. Thank you!
Congrats to Patra on your wedding and new blog! My husband is of Haitian descent, I am white, and when it comes to our daughter's hair, when she grows up, I just want her to know that I really really tried. Her hair is quite fine and curly more so than kinky, but from a person who can barely do her own hair, understanding her hair is a lot of work. Thankfully YouTube exists, and as luck would have it, a hair dresser who specializes in wavy/curly/kinky hair recently opened up shop in our neighbourhood. I'll definitely be watching that Netflix movie you two mentionned. Thanks!
I seriously love everything about this. Amanda is the absolute best
This was an amazing podcast. You both made me feel like I was there in certain stories you told. Thank you for sharing.
love it!
Such an awesome 1st podcast!!!! can't wait for more. Thank you Amanda!
