Has anybody else been seeing a lot of marriages and babies on their timeline? In today’s episode our guest host Sabrina is sharing her journey when it comes to Black Love and the importance of self love first. Join us as we unpack some of the heaviness that comes with Black Love, Femininity for Black women, and the beauty of Black Love. This week’s Affirmation is “I will attract the partner I deserve ”Key Takeaways: 1. In Order To Pour Love Into Others We Need To Pour Love Into Ourselves: Our relationships will flourish out of “nowhere” when we start to work on our love for ourselves. We cannot pour from an empty cup. .2. You Don’t Have To Be Stuck In Your Masculinity: I know a lot of times Black women feel backed into a corner and forced into their masculinity despite not wanting to be there, but you don’t have to be stuck anywhere you don’t want to be. Start doing things that you love that allow you to tap into your femininity or try something new.  3. Black Love is Beautiful: We get a lot of messages that Black Love is hard and it’s implied that it may not be worth the struggle, but Black Love doesn’t have to be a struggle if we heal ourselves first. Black Love is beautiful because it heals a small piece of our community when two healed and happy Black people find love in one another. Sabrina is new to the podcasting world and has a show called “The Hood Soft Life Podcast”. In her podcast she talks about the challenges of growing up in the hood and leaving those challenges behind for a soft life. Through personal stories Sabrina shares the struggles and the lessons she’s learning to achieve a soft life.You can follow Sabrina on:✨https://www.instagram.com/slizet_21/ ✨https://www.tiktok.com/@slizet_21?lang=en Follow The Hood Soft Life Podcast:Linktree:  https://linktr.ee/TheHoodSoftLife   ✨ https://www.instagram.com/thehslpod/ ✨ https://www.youtube.com/@TheHoodSoftLifePodcast ✨https://open.spotify.com/show/7k9qD10vHMv4uNZfYEpkJY?si=3lwvXP2yQ5qcXhgvAQUppA&nd=1&dlsi=ba9191a6b8584133  ✨https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-hood-soft-life-podcast/id1744761692 Please Rate, Review, and Subscribe to the podcast to always hear the latest affirmations from your favorite Black girl!Follow Us on Socialshttps://instagram.com/affirmationsforblackgirlshttp://twitter.com/afbg_podcasthttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4g90rFmTGCHcgku8LM5mNg  Wanna fellowship IRL?

In this episode, guest host Yasmyne explores the importance of curating authentic relationships with women and understanding that not every woman will become your sister at first meet. Embracing the notion that cultivating relationships organically and gradually, rather than instantaneously, is key to building a long-lasting sisterhood. Yasmyne shares her personal journey of forming meaningful relationships in her early twenties post-undergrad, and how she finally reached a place where her friendships are reciprocal and genuine. Join Yasmyne as she discusses the challenges and triumphs of finding a loving community, and see that this kind of connection is possible for you too.This week’s Affirmation: “I cultivate meaningful relationships that build community.”Key Takeaways:Sisterhood Is Not Linear: Understanding the journey of friendships in your twenties can be challenging but worthwhile if you're open to being vulnerable. It's about meeting people where they are and vice versa, without the burden of unrealistic expectations.Not Every Woman You Meet Will Become Your Sister: Accepting that not everyone is meant to be in your orbit and that relationships come with trial and error.Long-Lasting Relationships Are Created Organically: Recognizing that lasting relationships require mutual effort, consistency, and the willingness to evolve and give grace to one another as life changes.Keep up with Yasmyne: IG: @yazhunntyTwitter: @heyyyazzTiktok: @yazhunntyRecommendations of the Day:-Durand Bernarr “En Route” EPhttps://open.spotify.com/album/6oMGF1OHuuRjQWKn1HXrU5?si=kT3PCowMRLyYPVlUh5znPghttps://music.apple.com/us/album/en-route/1742236857-Devin Morrison “Bussin” Albumhttps://open.spotify.com/album/1yhlwILvASgg6G7cR2genD?si=31nUVJchTtaflLhv_oMq6Ahttps://music.apple.com/us/album/bussin/1455041016-Hold You Down: A Novel by Tracy Brownhttps://www.amazon.com/Hold-You-Down-Tracy-Brown-ebook/dp/B09NTKG8S8Wanna fellowship IRL?

Breakups happen. And, they are important! They teach us about ourselves. They show us what we want and what we don’t want. They allow us to move away from what is NOT for us, and closer to what IS. They even show us the parts of ourselves we need to break up with.Today, Tyra plays the game “We’re Not Really Strangers, Break Up Edition” So, grab a journal and pen and write down these refectory questions and answer them along with her!Here are today’s questions:What has helped you heal from a heartbreak in the past? Besides time and meeting someone new?What advice would you give a friend or loved one going through a similar situation as you?What validation are you seeking from a partner? How can you give it to yourself?Do you have a limiting belief about love? Where do you think it stems from? How can you challenge this belief?What did your last relationship make you appreciate about yourself?This week’s Affirmation is “I am worthy of love from myself and others.”We’re Not Really Strangers Break Up Edition: BUY ON AMAZONFoundational Relationships Youtube Video: https://youtu.be/paiWI7dH4YkWanna fellowship IRL?

In today's episode, Tyra explores the profound question: "What is worth?" And, do we believe ourselves to be ‘Worthy’?  We discuss the importance of setting boundaries to uphold our worth and the transformative power of self-compassion through self-care practices. You are enough, just as you are, and that’s just that. Pep Talk Challenge: Think of one boundary you need to set to honor your worth. Write it down, and commit to it for a week, revisit it, change it up if necessary, and take notice of how this boundary impacts your life.ResourcesListen to the For Life’s Rainy Day Playlist Wanna give therapy a try?
