🔥 Episode Title: Therapy for Black Girls

🎙 Podcast: Movement, Rhythm, and Conversations with Tafari

Description:
In this episode, we step into the sacred space of healing, the kind that too many Black girls were never given permission to enter. Therapy for Black Girls is a conversation about identity beyond the surface: beyond wigs, beyond blond hair, beyond the pressure to reshape themselves into something America finds more acceptable. This episode unpacks the silent emotional burdens carried by young Black women, the generational wounds passed down like inheritance, and the subconscious desire to dilute Blackness in order to feel worthy, loved, or seen.

We examine how trauma, media, Eurocentric beauty standards, and cultural expectations shape the minds of our daughters long before they understand the language of oppression. We talk mental fitness, self-acceptance, generational healing, and the journey back to self-defined beauty. Not borrowed beauty, but inherited beauty. Ancestral beauty. Uncompromised beauty.

This conversation is not just therapy, it’s reclamation. It’s the reshaping of identity through honesty, self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and community support. For Black girls to rise, they must not only survive the world, but they must also learn to love themselves within it. Healing is not a weakness. It is a weapon.

This episode is an invitation to break the cycle, to speak what hurts, to unlearn what harms, and to love what we were told to hate.
Because when Black girls heal, the whole community rises.

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
