Sis, this one right here? Whew. It was tough to record — but necessary. In this final new episode before I welcome my baby girl (yep, we’re officially on baby countdown!), I’m getting real about something that’s been on my heart for way too long…
Why do so many older Black women feel entitled to say the most rude, discouraging, and downright disrespectful things — especially to younger women?
From unsolicited comments during my pregnancy to childhood trauma from maternal figures, I’m pulling back the curtain on the generational toxicity that’s too often swept under the rug. And I’m asking the hard questions — is this just “how it is”? Or is it time for us to do better?
Whether you’ve dealt with shady aunties, been belittled by your elders, or found yourself defending younger girls from unnecessary disrespect, this episode is for you.
Tune in as I share personal stories, challenge the status quo, and invite you to join the convo about healing, setting boundaries, and breaking cycles — for real this time.
👶🏾 Oh, and don’t worry — while I’m out on maternity leave, I’ll be re-releasing some of your fave episodes, so make sure you’re subscribed to catch ‘em all!
👉🏾 If this episode hits home, leave your girl a 5-star review — it means the world!

Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders
Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders takes you back to 1983, when two teenagers were found murdered, execution-style, on a quiet Texas hill. What followed was decades of rumors, false leads, and a case that law enforcement could never seem to close. Now, veteran investigative journalist M. William Phelps reopens the file — uncovering new witnesses, hidden evidence, and a shocking web of deaths that may all be connected. Over nine gripping episodes, Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders unravels a story 42 years in the making… and asks the question: who’s really been hiding the truth?
