    Marriage and partnership

    Marriage and partnership

    If marriage is simply a piece of paper, a contract; why aren’t we taking seriously the consequences of entering into this partnership? Why is it so important to understand partnership especially in lesbian marriages? This week Lei & Esh discuss the lack of emphasis placed on partnership in lesbian relationships and marriages and why that is a huge mistake.

    Infidelity and Accountability

    Infidelity and Accountability

    When dealing with infidelity who’s truly to blame? Should your frustrations be directed towards the woman on the side or your girlfriend/ wife? Is it fair to place the blame on the side chick?

These are the questions we’re trying to answer this week. Join your favorite black queer wives as we unpack accountability & cheating.

    Surviving 2020

    Surviving 2020

    2020 changed everything for us. Our household income was reduced. We started a business. We conceived a child. The pandemic showed us so much about not only ourselves but it opened our eyes to the world around us and forced us to really take in what we saw.
    This is what 2020 taught us. Was 2020 as transformative for you as it was for us?
