Closet Confessions

This week’s listener confession has Candice and Sarel dissecting the consequences of controlling parents and why we desperately need decent sex education.

Sarel and Candice share their thoughts on why it’s reasonable to wonder about the what-ifs in life, showing up for other women and the lack thereof, as well as a deranged birds and the bees discussion.

The closet is opening for the final time this season and on the agenda today:

Candice unloads a childhood confession which shows where you start isn’t where you end up, why Sarel likes to pretend she was brought up in the hood, why we’re sick of people playing dumb on why black women are single, Sarel confesses to twerking to a specific genre of music, why ultimately you always have to be you for the universe to give you what you deserve, and a confession from ‘The Exhausted Black Woman Engineer’.

In the closet this week, Sarel confesses her plan for getting help for her household, how western society has tricked us into forgetting that it DO take a village to raise a child and Candice shares the number one piece of advice she gives to new mothers.
