Chatting with Serlina Boyd

STUDIO71 UK
About this episode

This week's episode of Slay In Your Lane: The Podcast is brought to you by Facebook. Yomi and Elizabeth chat to Serlina Boyd, the creator of the children's magazines Cocoa Boy and Cocoa Girl which launched this year and is the UK's first magazine for Black children. We talk launching a business during a global pandemic to the inspiration for Cocoa Boy and Cocoa Girl and the urgent need to address the underrepresentation of Black people in the media.


Slay in Your Lane: The Podcast comes from multi-award-winning authors Yomi Adegoke and Elizabeth Uviebinené who rose to prominence with their pioneering guide to life for young Black Women. The podcast explores topical news and popular culture from a Black British female perspective while expanding upon many of the same themes addressed in the Slay in Your Lane book including navigating the workplace, finances, education, health, relationships and dating.


This is a Studio71 production.
