    A Journey through Self-Discovery & Self-Love with Doa Rahman (Part One)

    This week's episode is part of a special 3-part conversation with Doa Rahman. Doa (she/her/hers) is a yoga instructor, life coach for Muslim women, and a skilled writer (you can find her enriching offerings at @allthingsdoa on Instagram). Our conversation explores race, identity, and forging your own path while honoring the footsteps of those who came before you. The road to honoring our most authentic selves isn't always easy, but our values, beliefs, and individuality are always worth fighting for.  If you'd like to get in touch, email me at helloladyparts@gmail.com or find me on IG @ladypartspodcast or @lovelyquills. Stay safe, practice self-gentleness, and remember to embrace ALL your parts.

    Self & Community Care

    This week's guest is Yuko Kudo! Yuko was born in Japan and immigrated to the United States in  2003. She's a multi-dimensional artist and creator, who uses art and storytelling to create community. Additionally, Yuko is the Founder and Artistic Director of the "I AM" Series Global, which showcases artists' talent within themes focusing on claiming one's various, complex identities and belonging.   Our conversation (recorded in May during quarantine) centers around community healing and starting that process within yourself. We discuss the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our respective communities, share ways to get involved in making a local impact, and ruminate on our 2020 self-care practices.  Unfortunately, the audio encountered some issues but the message still comes through loud and clear.  To engage with Yuko, please her on Instagram at Yukoislovelivelight or her website www.yukoislovelivelight.com. To send in a question or suggestion for future episodes, email me at helloladyparts@gmail.com or find me on Instagram at @ladypartspodcast.

    Boundaries & Catharsis

    This week we're diving into a fun conversation with Caprica Stanley (podcaster, photographer, and production manager). Our dialogue explores boundary setting, parenting your inner child, and how identity impacts advocacy. Caprica (aka Cappy) also dives into how generational conditioning shows up as we explore the (sometimes toxic) trope of the strong black woman.  Want to leave some feedback or hear yourself on a future episode?

If you're joining us on launch day, Happy International Women's Day!  About Fibroids: According to The Center for Innovative GYN Care, seventy to eighty percent of American women will develop uterine fibroids by age 50. For African-American women that becomes a staggering 90%. Even with an already high rate of occurrence, African-American women are two to three times more likely to have recurring fibroids or suffer from complications from them. We'll continue to dive deeper into this topic and others on future episodes!
