Embrace Your Light feat Boomie Bol

Season 1: Motherhood

In honor of the multidimensional ways that mother figures are striving to remain aware of the influences that their inner selves and surrounding environments have upon their children while cultivating their growth.

Episode 3: Nagiarry is joined by Boomie Bol who is a writer of short stories, fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and essays as she gifts us the honor of cherishing her story. This episode includes how her interpretations of humility changed through life experiences and authenticity of the passing of values to her children. She shared with us the roles of both Nigerian and American cultures in her children’s lives. This touches upon her navigations through grief, scars, love, self-confidence, kindness viewed as a weakness, and the boxing of excellence in genders with her children. Lastly, what would Boomie say to her children if they come to her one day and say that what she has done hurt their feelings? Just because someone is family, does it mean that they love you and cherish your existence?
