Connecting over the dopest conversations while getting her nails done, your triggered hosts welcome global mogul and nail goddess D’Marie Sambolin.
While D’Marie has taken nails to a whole new level, in this episode, this power trio tackles an extremely sensitive and uncomfortable conversation - skin complexion in the Black community.
So what does it mean to be light-skinned? Or part of the African diaspora? Is there an intentional divide? Does colorism exist within our community? And why are we so focused on getting “chosen” before choosing ourselves?
KEY POINTS:
QUOTABLES:
“It's like a cage that we automatically put people in depending on how they naturally look.”
“We don't emphasize and congratulate or pedestal certain people. And then we wonder, well, why are we not being chosen? We don't even choose ourselves sometimes!”

I loved Dani views of this topic because I grew up in church also , but as an adult I figured out for myself that we truly should have a relationship with God and I listen to Mike Todd a preacher from Tulsa and he also states same thing. Belief and relationship with God doesn’t require rituals or any of that. I don’t let anything that I’ve seen in the church sway me from my belief in God. I believe in God not man or a religion. God does want us to fellowship with others but God is everywhere! I turn on my worship music all the time at home, in the car etc. it doesn’t require us to be in church because we can have church anywhere
This show is such a great listen for young and mature women to let you know you 1) no you’re not crazy 2) you’re no alone 3) your feelings matter. Thank you Alechia & Dani for your real and raw conversations. This should be a TV show!
Just wow! I’ve listened to every episode and each one has helped me in some way. I’m really clear on what it is I want and what it is I need now.
I absolutely love this show. The topics are very thought provoking and inspiring. After each episode I walked away with a deep question to self-examine and make an effort to do the work. Keep shining ladies. I am so proud 😌👑❤️
