Welcome Back BFFs! Codie first met Jessica through her husband. After watching their life through the lens of social media, she knew she had to have a conversation with them for Black Love Doc. Little did she know just how much she would connect with all the things that Jessica embodies. In this conversation, Jessica shares everything about her new book Golden Guidance and all that it took to get her to the point of understanding just what programming she had endured. More importantly, what needed to be done in order to unlearn it. Golden Guidance is ALL THE THINGS and listening to Jessica share her journey is truly an experience.

Carmela Wallace is My New BFF
When Codie's husband, Tommy Oliver, was tapped to direct the new Juice WRLD documentary "Juice WRLD: Into the Abyss" she self admittedly knew very little about the global superstar. However, she was quickly pulled into the world of the rapper and his story. As she came to know him she also wondered about his mother, Carmela Wallace, and her story. How did she feel about the documentary? How was she doing after the loss of her son? It was through the documentary that she was able to connect with Carmela, but this conversation cemented her status as one of Codie's New BFF's.
Make sure you support Carmela and the work she is doing through the Live Free 999 Foundation and catch Juice WRLD: Into the Abyss directed by the one and only Tommy Oliver this Thursday, December 18th at 8 pm EST on HBO and HBO Max

Thembi Banks is My New BFF
Full disclosure - Codie and Thembi have been friends for a quick minute, but as the two of them are busy busy, it's always good to catch up! So let's get into it. Thembi Banks is a filmmaker, storyteller, wife, and mama. AND when she and Codie had this conversation she was getting ready to make her feature film directorial debut (after having C-19 shut down the first one). Codie and Thembi got real about just how hard it is to find your footing in the entertainment industry. As it turns out, the feature she was talking about is no longer going forward ( 😔) but the value is still there! Tune in as Thembi and Codie talk about juggling motherhood (shoutout to her little one in the background) and work and all the things that come with doing it all (note: extend yourself some grace). Trust, Thembi will be your New BFF by the end of this convo!
