This week, Morgan DeBaun is joined by Nigerian-American actress, author, and comedian, Yvonne Orji. Known for her role in HBO's hit series Insecure and her popular book, 'Bamboozled By Jesus,' Yvonne is here for nuanced conversations on success, love, and faith. In this episode, Yvonne opens up about her experience navigating love and relationships with celebrity status, and she and Morgan reflect on the challenges of dating as ambitious, high-achieving women.

They discuss the importance of understanding attachment styles and why setting high standards in the pursuit of love is a must. Yvonne shares stories of past relationships, and how both the good and bad experiences have taught her to ask God for what she wants. In an unexpected twist, Yvonne flips the script on Morgan, asking her to reflect on her own journey of self-love and becoming a mother. Morgan shares the challenges and triumphs of navigating pregnancy as a black woman and preparing to raise her child in an imperfect world. Grab your headphones, settle in, and get ready for a reflective, insightful conversation between two friends. Want to be a part of the conversation?
