Join us as we talk through everything from current events and memes, to news and our personal lives. We may even throw in a story or two about our friends (with their permission of course.) Although our focus is Black Women, We invite everyone (regardless of gender or ethnicity)to join the conversation.

    The Effects of Premarital Fornication

    The Effects of Premarital Fornication

    In our opening chatter we talk about how our week has been. What’s on Our Timeline? Today's timeline comes to us from Dr. Umar via Jericho Builders via Latreulatay. This actually is a very interesting topic of conversation. And the angle in which Dr. Umar addressed this, it's kind of biblical, kind of worldly. It's very interesting. Let’s Talk Through It Our first friend says she has been in a situation with a guy who she knows plans to propose to her soon. At first, she was super excited. He's a mechanical engineer for an airline, so he makes really good money and travel perks are amazing but She’s wondering if he will be what she needs in the bedroom. . Our other friend says she picked the wrong guy. In grad school, she was seeing two guys pretty consistently. One was the love of her life since childhood. He was a virgin, so I kind of let it fizzle out. She was also seeing a young man that she went to grad school with. He was super dreamy, suave, had great sex, and checked all of the boxes so she married him. 10 years later, he is running a large company, but he also has a really bad cocaine habit. While he is a functioning addict, so you don't really know unless you know him, many things...including the sex, have just become awful. She wants to know is it wrong to try to go back with Ex even though she chose her husband over him? Until we meet again. Pray! Work! Slay! And Show Off Your Melanated Excellence!

    Half & Half

    In our opening chatter we talk about how our week has been. What’s on Our Timeline? Today's timeline is coming to us live and direct. Leah from Leah’s Lemonade is here mixing tea with lemonade. Let’s Talk Through It Our first friend says her mother recently moved in with her, her husband and 2 girls. Growing up her mom wasn’t very nice to her and her sister saying a lot of really nasty things. Recently her mom said some negative things to her husband and she is wondering why she is putting up with her mom and thinking about putting her out. Our other friend is a 40 year old who thought that her biological clock was ticking and she and her boyfriend decided to have IVF and we ended up having triplets. Fast forward three years, she is a single mother raising three beautiful girls. There are days that she loves her girls and there are days that she resents them. She feels like she never has time for herself and is either taking care of patients or taking care of my babies. She wants to take her ex to court and get shared custody but a bit embarrassed because she shouldn't have to force her daughters on their father. She wants to know what she should do? Until we meet again. Pray! Work! Slay! And Show Off Your Melanated Excellence!

    In our opening chatter we talk about how our week has been. What’s on Our Timeline? Today's timeline is coming to us from Irene and James. Irene and Jimmy Rollins have a marriage ministry and it's called Two Equals One. Let’s Talk Through It Our first friend needs some real advice, not the fake advice, the real advice. She feels as if her boyfriend and her are going through the motions. He says he wants to marry her, but honestly doesn't know if she wants him to be the person leading her. Our other friend is writing because her sister is a very kind, very caring, very accomplished, God-fearing woman who desires to be married, but she feels like she is in her own way.

    Celebrating the Wins

    In our opening chatter we talk about how our week has been. What’s on Our Timeline? SLIM Kim on TikTok got us out here collecting our flowers even with the obstacles we go through as black women. Let’s Talk Through It Our first friend is a travel nurse. She has only been at her hospital for 5 months and already been nominated for recognition. Now it's time to nominate again and she wants to nominate another African American nurse. Her Asian boyfriend thinks she shouldn’t nominate anyone because she is not full time and that she only wants to nominate this woman because she is black. She asks if she is being unfair by participating since she is not full time. Our other friend is a millennial and thinks she may be too hard on herself. She’s about to be 40 and has a good job as a restaurant manager but thought she would be a lot further along than she currently is. Until we meet again. Pray! Work! Slay!
