Description

In this episode of I Talk To Myself Sometimes, Antoinette reflects on Mary J. Blige’s 1994 album My Life — an anthem of healing, honesty, and self-restoration. Through a deeply personal lens, she explores how Mary gave a generation of Black women permission to be transparent in their struggle while redefining what it meant to grow, forgive, and rebuild in real time.
