DBM Ep 65: Marriage, Hot Topics & Black Motherhood

Dear Mama,

What do Telvin Osborne, Black marriage, generational wealth, Altadena, data as currency, the TV show Paradise, and white women in Idaho have in common?  We cover them all in this episode.  Yup, it’s hot topics, and we got hot takes well, not hot takes.  We got Black Mama takes on all the above.  In this episode, we talk:

✨How Telvin Osborne is relevant to Black women resting ✨The real problem when it comes to  marriage & Black folx ✨Why Paradise gets kudos & white women in Idaho don’t

PLUS – we talk all things Black Maternal Health,  Roberta Flack, Thea taking on individual clients, and I share a big praise report regarding my nonprofit Creators Well during our Church announcements, praise reports, and prayer list requests segment.  In our Black Mama Say segment for this episode, where we put our twist on sayings from Black mamas and the saying we’re twisting this episode is “Let me put it to you like this.”
