Experiencing Love as a Black Woman, Learning the Love You Deserve and Setting Boundaries for That Purpose.

This summer, we are switching things up. Welcome to Summer Stories: Celebrating Our Narratives. In this episode, guest host Malaika “Laika” Williams opens up about her childhood experiences with love, from family, friends, and romantic interests. She shares insights into what effects each kind of love has on each other and reflects on the lessons she’s learned that helped her find the healthy relationship she has today. This week’s Affirmation is “ I am the love of my life.” Key Takeaways: - Instead of focusing only on the best friend you yearn for, be that best friend for yourself first. - You are the only person you’ll be stuck with for the rest of your life, start acting like it. - You need a healthy balance of love from multiple sources; you can’t get everything from yourself or just one person.
