Plot Twist, Please! : The Podcast

"Racial Progress" and What "Black Men for Trump" Shows Us About Relationships

I cover a lot in this video, folks. Overall, I’m talking about power, what it means when the power is imbalanced in a heterosexual relationship between black men and black women, and who bears the emotional labor in a romantic relationship within a “post-racial” society. ************************************************************* WHO EVEN AM I?

My name is Chamaya and I'm a content creator who is passionate about creating an emotionally healthy, more empathetic world. Follow my Instagram for some good times and/or the Plot Twist, Please Instagram for daily self-help nuggets, mental health hacks, and strategies for advocacy. *************************************************************LISTEN: (Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or Podbean):

Everyday Ableism and What We Can Do About It

Ableism is often forgotten within discussions surrounding prejudice and inequality. Let's talk about the kind of ableism that we might witness on a daily basis, as well as how to be more empathetic toward those with disabilities.

An Honest Review of "Love On the Spectrum"

Hey, folks! In this episode, I chat with my friend Haggai Simon about ableism, relationships, and the Netflix series "Love On the Spectrum."

 

Notes:

-When I refer to the social hierarchy, I don't mean to imply that black women are incapable of being oppressors. 

-I mean to compare male and female autism diagnoses at the beginning of the episode.

ICE, My Black Therapist, and Distrust of Medical Professionals

In this episode, I briefly cover my response to the ICE whistleblower news, how to advocate for yourself and navigate a biased healthcare system, and questions you should be asking your therapist.

Internalized Racism, Empathy, & Why It's So Hard for People to Actually Change

We talk about radical empathy in social justice spaces a lot, and lately, I found myself thinking about what it means for the individual. In this episode, I talk about why some people, or rather, most people, struggle to change.

Confronting Our Misconceptions About Self-Care

Hey, folks! I'm bringing on another creative entrepreneur to tackle a wellness topic I've been itching to chat about. The special guest this time around is Sara Katherine, an author and self-improvement coach who strives to empower women to stop people-pleasing and live life guilt-free by putting themselves first. Her book, "I'm Awesome. Here's Why..." helps readers gain self-confidence. In this episode, we talk about her creative journey, the blind spots within the self-help industry & different interpretations of self-care. Find Sara at sarakatherine.com.

Why Black Women Can't Afford to Be Your Superheroes

Hi,again. Today, I'm talking about the Superwoman Syndrome as it pertains to black women, the notion of black women being strong, the historical connotations, and how it affects our mental health and wellness today. This characterization seems like it's based on a progressive notion, but it's not.

When Wellness Is A Privilege (Panel)

Since July was Minority Mental Health Month, I hosted a panel with a few smart folks about wellness as it pertains to minority communities. We talked about the education system, prison reform, culture, and other areas where one's mental health and wellness might be impacted within their cultural and ethnic community. We get into some heavy subject matter concerning BIPOC experiences and trauma. Check out the Instagram below for more information on the panelists and how they make the world a warmer place for BIPOC. Also, we're encouraging donations for Harriet's Daughters, so please donate below!
