Tea And Talk: A Self Development Podcast for Wifehood
124 episodes - English - Latest episode: almost 2 years ago -Tea And Talk is dedicated to helping married black women deconstruct the barriers holding her back in life and marriage, reconstruct a stronger and solid foundation for growth and development and put those things into action to step into wifehood wiser and more confidently. As a wife we can loose ourselves in the mad dash as well as not understand the proper skills necessary to be great at this wife thang. Things can become blurry when you try to separate the daily hats you wear from who you are at the core. This podcast is meant to help give you a bit of clarity and some of the skills you need and which I have learned and used over the last 9 years of marriage.I hope to help you find what you have been missing to step out in the world as a new, purposeful and authentic version of yourself while killing it as a wife!
