Nedra Tawwab
Nedra Tawwab challenges the common phrase, “You only have one mother/father.” She explains that while it’s often said with good intentions, it can be harmful, especially to those who have experienced pain, abuse, or neglect from a parent. Encouraging people to stay in unhealthy relationships simply because of biological ties dismisses their lived experiences. Instead, she advocates for honoring individual boundaries and recognizing that sometimes distance is necessary for emotional safety and well-being.
Thank you, it's an Afro! - Cassidy

Left Side: Cassidy Brianna, interviewed by Tamron Hall, drops truth gems. She penned “Thank You… It’s An Afro” because representation matters. Kids deserve books that look like them, and when the shelves fell short, Cassidy took matters into her own creative hands. 📚
Right Side: Meet Juni Cassaway, the Pro bono ASL interpreter. She’s the magic behind making this inspHERing video accessible in American Sign Language (ASL). Thank you, Juni, for bridging gaps and amplifying voices!
Steven Bartlett - Good relationships hinge on effective communication styles, where both partners work together against problems rather than turning against each other. So question for you: How do you approach conflict resolution in your relationships, and do you think it strengthens or weakens your connection over time?
Gabrielle Union declining a job for a friend
Gabriella Union shared an incident where she initially declined a job offer that a friend was offered at a low rate. When the offer was redirected to her, she declined it too, requesting an exorbitant compensation she had no intention of accepting, aiming to secure better pay for her friend. Her stance was that it wasn’t her role, so declining wouldn’t affect her. However, she intended to ensure her friend received fair compensation. Later, when others were offered the same job, she and her friends continued asking for high compensation, eventually securing a higher pay for her friend than the initial low offer, without any of them accepting the job themselves.
