A Black Girl's Survival Guide

BGSG

Hi, I’m Joy. I am a Black girl trying to figure out how to survive this thing called life. I made this podcast as a love letter and guide to black women across the country and world. We have to navigate this world so differently, so I want to share the things I learn along the way. I feature friends from all walks of life and backgrounds. We will talk about EVERYTHING. This is your guide to being whoever the f**k you want to be regardless of the obstacles in the way.
