For the Brown Girls

PCOS and Health with Dr. Rameez Rehman

Our favorite doctor joined us for an informational chat to discuss PCOS, how to mitigate symptoms, fertility issues, and how to have these conversations with relatives that may not be so informed and forthcoming. We also had some fun laughs and talked about how much fun we had navigating our childhood and puberty as brown girls. Tune in for a perfect balance of funsies and medical information!

ins and outs of 2023

happy new year! we had a whirlwind of a year and learned soo many lessons along the way. we laughed, we cried, and we made some really hard decisions that helped us grow into better versions of ourselves. here are 10 things we think you should take into the new year 🤍 enjoy listening!

#8 finding your formula (mental health)

happy mental health day! this episode is a special one because we explore how hard it can be to open up to our families and friends about whatever is plaguing our minds and how to seek help. special guest fatima sheikh speaks about her own experience with navigating her emotions and eventually finding a formula that works for her. it’s truly beautiful when we’re there for others out of love and genuine kindness and fatima captures that in this episode perfectly! 🤍

#7 communication and confidence (friendship breakups)

trust that what misses you was never meant for you in the first place. we often think friendships are meant to last forever but that’s not always the case and we end up not knowing how to process our emotions when they end. these feelings of confusion and grief are totally normal. things end and we move on, but how can we do it gracefully? listen and learn how 🤍

#6 when they say you’re “too much”

why they say it, what it means, and how you can respond. we cover how important it is to understand your emotions, communicate them clearly, and how to reframe those thoughts into something positive. if i’m too much, maybe you’re not enough? and you know what.. that’s okay. it’s freeing and allows you to finally let go and find the people who see and appreciate you for exactly who you are. the people who wouldn’t ask you to change a thing. this one was fun to make and we’ll def expand on it in future episodes. hope you guys enjoy and laugh a lot! 🤍 remember to smile at a stranger today :) instagram: @forthebrowngirlspodcast
