When Harry met Meghan, it felt like a dream come true—a royal romance that redefined the fairytale. Books were written, movies were made, and the world watched in fascination. But for the first time, a princess on the global stage looked like me. Seeing Meghan be chosen by a man who matched her energy felt surreal, powerful, and deeply affirming.
Yet, fairytales don’t always end with a happily ever after. Meghan’s story turned into one of escape, resilience, and, ultimately, a journey back to herself. In this episode, I dive into her new Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, and explore how witnessing her joy, self-love, and reclamation of her own narrative awakened something within me—a soft, dreamy, feminine part of myself that had long been buried.
Join me as we unpack the power of Meghan’s journey and what it means for Black women who have been told we are too much, not enough, or undeserving of a love story of our own. Let’s talk about self-love, healing, and embracing our own version of the fairytale.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
