Episode notes

White women were particularly interesting because they were less vocal, but meaner. And so to me, it's like that response and all those types of responses had to navigate carefully. Just weren't sure when it was going to be a safe space or a safe environment for us to be exactly who we were. We found ourselves very quickly adapting to certain environments,. Behaving differently. That was not a conscious change.

1. Hard-won, joyful, practical wisdom from Bozoma’s exuberant life, and her lessons on how to overcome after enduring excruciating loss.

2. How big love and life can be when we are brave enough to be fierce and tender.

3. The rarely talked-about confusion and fear that often come with pregnancy.

4. Why love isn’t enough — and we all deserve a community surrounding our love.

5. Why Boz gave her husband a book report assignment before she’d go out with him, and the heart wrenching truth that you can carry anger toward a loved one even after death.
