Y’all thought you knew what grounding was until you listen to this story! Our punishment of being taken out of public school and put into online school was a tough decision our parents made. What we didn’t realize was how this story would start our careers in social media. We discuss the harsh, yet enlightening lessons we learned from our high school experiences and how they've shaped our relationships, particularly with our parents. Join us  as we look back, and laugh at our rebellious teenage years, and share how these experiences transformed us into the people we are today.

Ask yourself: When was the last time you truly prioritized your own happiness in a relationship? Kamie Crawford, an exceptional individual who transitioned from the world of pageantry to TV hosting joins us while we talk about self-growth, and relationships. Kamie reveals how she navigated  the LA dating scene, demonstrating the power of setting high standards, and the importance of a good partner who respects your self-worth.

We also talked about revealing the hard truths in life - like dealing with insecurities, and knowing when to move on from a relationship, and embracing authenticity. We place a strong emphasis on understanding the importance of communication, and setting boundaries in relationships. Join us, as we share practical advice, real-world experiences, and refreshing perspectives on all these subjects.

The adventure doesn't end there. We bravely tackle the emotional rollercoaster of hormonal changes induced by trauma, and the isolation that came with it.

We have had a long journey from hating our natural hair, not knowing how to style or even know what products to use, to loving and embracing our natural curls! It took us a while to recover our hair from heat damage. But once we put that iron down that's where the natural hair journey began. In this episode, we talk all about our struggles as curly girls and how we got to the healthy curls we have now, because believe it or not our curls didn't always look like this.

There are so many pro and cons to social media, and too much can have a negative affect on our mental health. In this weeks episode we dive into the hard facts with special guest Dr. Blair Steel licensed psychologist. She answers your guys questions on how social media affects your brain, and how to set healthy boundaries.
