Our Parenthood Series continues and it has been amazing. We're learning so much. • • We couldnt do a Parenthood Series without having a Fatherhood episode. We believe Fatherhood is such a huge part of parenting that is so often not given the platform that it is due. • • In our next episode, we have one of our good friends @chris.e.evelyn opin us to discuss the very important role that fathers play as parents. • • Have you ever wondered how post-partum depression affects fathers? Mommy guilt is a real thing but have you ever wondered if fathers have daddy guilt? Chris sheds some light on some of these for us. • • There was definitely perspectives that we didn't consider when it came to fatherhood until this episode. We are so excited for you to hear them. We ofcourse had some good laughs too cuz why not.

The episodes on our Mental Health Series have really thought us a lot. Especially during this ultra heightened time that we find ourselves, struck by an unexpected pandemic coupled with a worldwide realization of racial injustice, to say that it has been A LOT is a complete understatement. • • On our upcoming episode, we try our best to sum up our thoughts as best as we can . • • Mental health is such a broad topic that there is obviously so much we did not touch on but we believe that especially now that we are all dealing with everything going on in such different ways, it is important for us to be mindful of our mental health and make sure that aspect of our lives is as healthy as bab be. • • We have been taking intentional steps to prioritize self care and our mental health. Even if it's simply unplugging from social media for a while . • • What have you guys been doing to prioritize your mental health?

On this episode, we have a conversation about mental health in the black community and some of the way its effects spill over into the church. Conversations around mental health issues are already difficult as it is but it gets even harder in the Christian church context. We understand and acknowledge that we do not have all the expertise when it comes to this subject matter so that our conversations might be very subjective but we believe the conversation must be started. We need to be comfortable with having uncomfortable conversations such as these.

The Proverbs 31 woman is like every church girl's role model to emulate when prepping for marriage but what about the church boys? On this episode we're bringing the men into the conversation!!! Our hubbies join us in the discussion to let us in on how they prepped for marriage and give us some of their thoughts and insights on marriage now that they are in it. It is a really a fun episode with a lot of take away points.

This week we are having a sensitive but very important discussion on the podcast. We are talking about infertility with one of our very good friends who has herself gone through the ups and downs of dealing with fertility issues. • Infertility and everything that comes with it is a reality for many women (and men) that we don't often talk about at all. ESPECIALLY in the church. • People are going through things in silence that you don't know. It's so tempting (and I know we have been culprits ourselves) to ask a woman right after the minute that say "I do", "when are you guys having a baby?". But this week's discussion really shed light on the fact that you don't ever know what anyone is really going through and how that question may make them feel
