The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves. May is Mental Health Awareness Month and in honor of this, all of the podcasts this month will focus on Relationships! This week's episode focuses on romantic relationships. I discuss the top 7 reasons why you're not getting what you need and want in relationships: 1. You're afraid to ask for it. 2. You're being passive in the process. 3. You're too busy listening to others or comparing yourself to others. 4. You've convinced yourself you don't need or want love. 5. You're not clear about what you need and want. 6. You're not being flexible. 7. You haven't healed from past hurts.

Getting What You Need in Relationships

Some people can’t handle the truth but not one to keep the goodness to myself I, comedian, and professional gem dropper Amanda Seales, am sharing what I’ve learned (and am learning) in my podcast, Small Doses.  Every episode I break down the side effects of a theme that all of us can relate to from Insecurity, to Haters, to the Hoe Phase and more. With stories to tell, Q&A, guests, and my trademark self help from the hip, I’ll have you, yo’ momma, and your cousin too, laughing and living your best life!

Side Effects of Being an Innovator

AAVE=African American Vernacular English
POC= People of Color

This Episode could have had a couple of names: 
No one wins when veiled anti-blackness among non black POC is a proxy for solidarity

no one wins when you use AAVE and you're not black: the anti blackness of non black POC

no one wins when you're neither black nor really my family so don't call me sis: POC and anti blackness

Everybody wanna be black til it's time to dismantle white supremacy

Everybody wanna be black til it's time to be white: Non-Black POC & AAVE in service of Antiblackness

From Rockefeller's Standard Oil monopoly of America's early industrialization period to the "only Christopher we acknowledge", the drive to forgive the transgresses of abusive cis men celebrated the world over for the exploitative power of their influence and the allure of toxic masculinity across the gender spectrum has gone seldom challenged for millennia. Yet it's not the love of cis men that excites or attracts us to white supremacist patriarchy, but the hatred of black femmes. Join us in the first of two installments as we make the case that toxic masculinity aint nothing but an attempt to be like white cis men and we might need a better term for it.
