Four Black Moms on Love, Life, and Finding the Right Partner ft. Elaine Welteroth, Debra Welteroth, and Jerri Devard

Naked Beauty

Episode Description: In this heartfelt episode of Naked Beauty, I sat down with Elaine Welteroth, an acclaimed journalist and founder of Birthfund, along with our iconic mothers for an intimate conversation about motherhood. Elaine and I are deep into our second pregnancies, a time that sparks a lot of reflection, so we thought it’d be great to reflect with the women who influenced us the most: our mothers. We explore the profound wisdom and self-care habits passed down from their mothers and hear their perspectives on what it takes to build a decades-long marriage. This episode is full of black maternal wisdom about love, identity, motherhood, and the invaluable support systems in our lives.

Tune in as we discuss:

  • The significance of choosing strong partners 
  • The challenges and rewards of balancing work and family 
  • Our mothers’ approaches to raising mixed-race and Black children
  • How parenthood has changed since our mothers had us
