In this solo episode, I reflect on my year through five words: loss, support & love, resilience, depth, and self-discovery. I talk about grief, burnout, friendship, learning to separate self-worth from work, listening to the body,...

Black hair isn’t just style—it’s belonging, visibility, and becoming.

We talk about why representation matters, the shift from ‘90s straight-hair standards to today’s celebration of natu...

Black hair is more than style — it’s identity, confidence, and care. In this episode of The Pink Dot, we sit down with my friend Nicole to talk about her personal journey with her hair — growing up in the American South, being told she had “good hair,” and what that meant in a world shaped by beauty standards she didn’t choose. Through open, thoughtful storytelling, she reflects on what it means t...

In the final episode of this cycle, we dive into the emotional journey of coming out. With Dionysis, we reflect on the tough conversations many LGBTQ+ people have with friends and family—and the courage it takes to speak our truths. In a perfect world, coming out wouldn’t exist.

As my friends and I approach our 30s, I couldn’t help but wonder: Can women—especially those who’ve always had that cool girl energy—still hold onto it after becoming mums? How do they balance shifting identities, responsibilities, and still find joy and contentment? To explore this, I’m joined by my friend (and certified cool mum) Faye, who recently stepped into motherhood. This episode is a love...
