from The Tight Curls Project · host Shadia Oshodi

What does it look like to really know your hair, care for it well, and enjoy it as part of your life? In this episode, I talk with Tiana about self-advocacy, focusing on what you have, and how that mindset can support confidence and ease over time. We also get into her Sisterlocks journey, what surprised her most after starting locs, and how her hair became a signature style that supports how she shows up professionally.   ✅ Help more people find us by subscribing to this podcast.
