Raven Symoné and Miranda Pearman-Maday on How These Wives Make It Work

Today we have a dynamic duo on the show. 

One half of that duo is a woman who was a HUGE part of most of our childhoods – a peer we grew up watching on TV– Raven Symoné, aka Raven Baxter of That’s So Raven, aka Olivia on The Cosby Show!

The other half of this couple is Miranda Pearman-Maday, a doula (we love a doula around here) who stars alongside her wife Raven in their new Youtube series 8pm! 8pm gives you a sneak peek into their lives, and each episode is different - from conversations about mental health issues and relationships to cooking fried chicken.

Flash back a few (many) years: when I was 10, I got to go to a That’s So Raven taping, and my god, it was the best day of my life… but for Raven, growing up in front of the world is not the dream everyone thinks it is. Being told what to do, who you are supposed to be, what you’re supposed to look like, who you’re supposed to love – it takes strength and courage to break out of the bubble you’re put in and finally put your happiness above all else. Miranda and Raven are a great example of how far your willingness to look inward and evolve can get you. 

We covered A LOT in this interview. The two of them are extremely honest about the trials and tribulations of their marriage, and the work they do both together and separately to make the relationship and their lives together thrive. We talked about friendship breakups, why some people choose to ghost, and how each of us feel about the friendship breakups in our own lives. We talked about trauma, body stuff, childhoods, mental illness, and more!
