Talk Space with Gen and Qui Gen and Qui

- Gesellschaft und Kultur
We all know that being a black woman in today’s world is a challenge. We have to juggle our overworked and underpaid professional lives with the demands and expectations of our family lives, all while checking our attitudes and opinions at various doors.
Sometimes being “on” never allows us to “turn off”.
Meeting societal expectations that break through glass ceilings on a daily basis all in the name of sophistication, elevation, education and paving new paths can be EXHAUSTING. However, being what many consider as “ratchet” ….is TOO MUCH.
Our experiences, while individualized, are like no other. This is why we are.
Talk Space with Gen and Qui, is a safe space to explore the joys, frustrations, and obstacles of the modern-day black woman with notes of levity in hopes of working together to find a balance of something that falls right in the middle.
We hope you join us on this ride towards finding that harmony, all while discussing today’s hot topics…acknowledged and unspoken.

Faith and Burnout
Hey Luvs!
We are a month into the new year and for many of us, nothing has slowed down. Sometimes being on our grind and hustling to make the life we want for ourselves and for our family leaves us feeling exhausted. That exhaustion on a continuous basis leads to burnout. Something many of us are all too familiar with. In this episode we discuss how having faith and doing the work can carry us through or even relieve some of that burden from time to time.
