    Our voices matter

    Our voices matter

    This will probably be one of the most important elections we've seen in our lifetime due to the carelessness of our current president Trump but the past of the past haunting his running mate Biden so this leave many questioning our futures. Litsey and Angie we're joining by @helloamani and sister duo @heysisworld as we discuss our fears,concerns, and current emotions regarding this election This is not typically a topic women are asked about so we felt it deemed necessary to bring bring a few women together to have an open conversation to feel out how one another and lowkey have a therapy session, because WHY NOT?

    The Melting Pot Ft $6.99 LB

    The Melting Pot Ft $6.99 LB

    This week we’re back for another really dope episode in partnership with @jaekicho and @jojoparque of @699perpound. As we all know New York is the melting pot when it comes to being the home to so many different cultures and ethnicities, however its no secret that there are racial tension between different communities in specific the black and brown community and the asian community.
     
    There were so many layers to this conversation and Angie, Litsey, Joann, and Jaeki were able to break down their personal experiences to shed light on the things we grew up hearing, things we’ve seen, things our parents told us, and moving forward things that we can be better about.
     
     
    This conversation couldn’t have come at a better time as we also discussed xenophobia, and how at the end of the day we’re all dealing with something whether similar or indifferent; we as people need to come together for the better. I guarantee you’ll learn something listening to this conversation as have we, because at the end of the day we’re all one big melting pot.
     
     
    Also shoutout to our “token male" Jaeki being the first POC guy on our podcast!

    2020?! What's Good Wit Chu'?

    2020?! What's Good Wit Chu'?

    Whewww chile! 2020 has been a long year and it's only the middle of February! We've had so many unfortunate circumstances happen within the past 2 months that have brought out so many different conversations, especially in regards to race.
    The passing of  legend Kobe Bryant along with 8 others including his daughter, Gayle Kings interview with Lisa Leslie along with all the backlash, Joaquin phoenix's speech at the BAFTA's award in regards to inclusivity at award shows, the Coronova virus (conspiracy theories anyone?), and we of course lighten the conversation with talking about different shows on Netflix to binge watch along with a few other topics as we catch up with one another.

    Moving in the spirit

    First episode of 2020! We sit down with @alyssaneilson , social media marketing and strategy expert. It's been quite the journey for Alyssa from moving back from L.A, and her experience as a young professional since she started her own consulting business. Developing a community at C3 NYC, and what it's like growing her relationship with God. 
    And since we all die for Alyssa's sneaker collection, we end things with a little chat on Virgil Abloh.
