76. Mama’s Just Checking In

Mamaste with Tanika Ray - June 06, 2023 09:00 - 10 minutes
One of the reasons I created this platform is because mothering is hard. Being a daughter of a mother is hard and so vitally complicated… It might be the most complicated relationship on the planet. She’s the person from which you came from, she sacrifices everything to make sure that you can en...

75. I See You Sis! with Michelle Ryan Bathé

Mamaste with Tanika Ray - May 30, 2023 09:00 - 36 minutes
As mamas, we give everyone else everything we have before we give ourselves grace. We try to make our kids’ lives full with every possible thing they could love.

74. When Mother’s Day Sucks

Mamaste with Tanika Ray - May 23, 2023 09:00 - 24 minutes
A lot of us are suffering from all different kinds of triggers on Mother's Day… it's a  heavy, emotionally charged day at its core.

Mamaste with Tanika Ray - May 09, 2023 09:00 - 40 minutes

71. Netflix + Black Ill with Megalyn Echikunwoke

Mamaste with Tanika Ray - May 02, 2023 09:00 - 25 minutes
Mamas, I know I don’t have to tell you: if you're a black woman in America, you know your needs are ignored. That’s why we typically don't trust the medical industry; there's this idea that we're superhuman, that our pain means nothing. Especially for those of us who have experienced pregnancy, ...

Mamaste with Tanika Ray - April 18, 2023 09:00 - 39 minutes
As Black women, and especially mothers, one of the things we have to come to terms with is how, historically, we’ve often been treated as vessels—completely lacking our own agency.

Boundaries, Baby!!

Mamaste with Tanika Ray - April 04, 2023 09:00 - 24 minutes
Boundaries aren’t just a trending topic. When you step back and tell someone, “I’ve got boundaries,” it’s not a cute saying. If we are intentional about our boundaries, they're very, very effective. It's not only about a man you don't want to be in a relationship with or someone standing too clo...

Why is it that when dad takes the kids for the day it’s “babysitting,” but when mom has the kids it’s just… well… parenting? As modern mamas, it’s our job to reject that dusty, antiquated way of thinking and make sure our identities aren’t lost once we have babies. Today, I welcome Simone Sheph...
