A Mama’s Den Reintroduction, Part 2: Goi...

Black Love Podcast Network
About this episode

A few weeks ago, we dropped Mama’s Den Reintroduction Part 1 - if you missed it, go run that back! In Part 2, we pick up where we left off…but this time, we’re officially down one Mama. Codie, Ashley, and Melanie open up about Felicia’s decision to step away from the show to pursue her next chapter (we love you and love this for you, Fee!). The Mamas also get real about where they are now - juggling motherhood, entrepreneurship, and personal growth - while doing their best to choose joy and lean on community. If you’re out here doing the best with what you’ve got, this is your reminder: joy is still on the table.
