Take a listen while we dive into how relationships with parents, both one's relationship with them and theirs with each other, play a vital role in relationships.

Instead of taking on the new year, new me mantra of the socials, we decided to take some time to think about some ways to round out the year on a high-note. We thought about failures, reflected on what we’ve achieved (sheiiiit, SURVIVING counts) and really got down to what was truly important in an otherwise craaaazy ass year. P.S. Need a NYE drinking game? Take a shot errtime Tiff says "Ummm" or...

With the end of the year around the corner and our inner critics likely running amok, we wanted to chat about that little wench called comparison.

And, how do you balance this unavoidable heffa so it doe...

Our parents are in the co-parenting VIP league (and ppl always say their friendships are weird as fudge). This got us to thinking....can and should you truly be offer friendship when a romantic relationship doesn't work out?

Would you time travel to 10 and relive your life with all the knowledge you have now or fast-fwd to 45 with 50mil in the bank?  This trending question sparked a larger conversation about regret vs wisdom, and what some the things are we wish we'd known or know better now in our three HOODS (adulthood, parenthood, manhood/womanhood) Follow us on Instagram @ohmygoodens, send us a voice message...
