S2E21 The Battle of Montgomery: A Cathartic Release

This week, we’re talking about the collective cathartic release we had watching The Battle of Montgomery. Some call it the Riverwalk Rumble and others Fade in the Water. Regardless, many of us felt like we could finally take a deep breath while watching the collective actions of those who came to the aid of a Black man being brutalized at the hands of a group of white men and women. Seeing every angle of Aquamayne swimming across that river or Unc swinging that folding chair was less about the violence and more about the instant karma, accountability, and people banding together to say we’re not gonna take it anymore!

S2E24 Labor Day Burnout

At some point, we must acknowledge that burnout is making its way into our lives. The key is not to stay in that space. Lori and Sylvia discuss their recent frustrations with contractors and wedding planners. They also propose refocusing their energy on more positive mindsets to help move forward. This isn’t an overnight fix but instead a daily intentional practice.  This week’s book recommendations:  A Complaint Free World by Will Bowen Walking in My Joy by Jenifer Lewis Record your own episodes with Riverside.Fm:  https://www.riverside.fm/?via=wbbpod We'd love to have you as a guest on our show.
