Mother
We often speak of generational curses and children paying for the sins of their parents. For most of my life I’ve had to unknowingly walk that path & it’s caused me to spend the last decade or so trying to fix that. It’s something I’ve complained about time and time again. But then something eye...

Infinite 8
Welcome back to Good Skin & Happy New Year everyone! This episode is another impromptu one that was inspired by the Color Purple. I just came from seeing it in the symbolism that I saw in it shook me so much that I just had to share.

Chaos vs Peace
This episode is an impromptu one. I woke up with thoughts and figured I’d share them just in case someone can relate. That’s what we do here at Good Skin

Dark Times
Welcome back to a new episode of Good Skin! This episode is an honor of Suicide Prevention month and as a survivor, it means a lot to me. I apologize for the sound in advance I recorded it while I was driving and it connected to my HandsFreeLink. I would’ve redone it but it’s a very touchy…

Savior Complex vs Big Heart

This is 30.
It’s my 30th birthday & as usual I wrote a letter to myself to honor my being here. I decided to share it in hopes to inspire others to write letters to themselves. I’ve written longer letters to myself in the past but I think that the healing I’ve done thus far made this particular one shorter...
-
Not Alone
This is probably the rawest episode of I’ve recorded to date and it’s because it followed a raw and unexpected conversation with my godmother. I don’t have much to say about it except if you’re a sensitive soul like me this one may make you cry a little.
-
Toxic
Happy 2022 everybody! So per usual I was sitting on some feelings & was inspired to start a new segment. In this episode, I talk about my “toxic traits” but not just the ones that are toxic to others. I talk about the ones that are toxic to me too! Also I wanna apologize in advance for the way I...
