Episodes

  1. Falcon and the Winter Soldier (Part 1)

    Part 1 of my breakdown on the show Falcon and the Winter Soldier; we touch on Sam Wilson and the complexities of being a Black military veteran/member, the dog whistle of "woke" agenda being code for something being ruined by the presence of Black people...and SO much more.

  2. Dr Strange - Stop trying to fix yo hands!

    In this episode I examine how the life of Dr Strange helped me get to radical acceptance about my disability, and how we can reinvent ourselves after surviving trauma (when we are ready of course)

  3. Wanda Maximoff: The Space to Heal

    The first in the comeback of NICTalks, as I talk about characters that have impacted me, and what lessons they've taught me. In this episode I break down the life of the MCU Wanda Maximoff and how we can relate to her complex trauma.

  4. The Importance of Fashion in Self-Expression and Self-Image

    I completely underestimated how important your clothes are until I left the military and wasn’t told how to dress anymore. I realized I didn’t know how to express myself….because honestly, I didn’t even know who I was outside of the military.

  5. If I’m going to be oppressed, what’s going to be worth it for me?

    A few years ago, I came to the radical acceptance that no matter what life path I chose, as a Black woman, I would always be treated like shit. It then became a matter of decided what life path was going to be worth it for me to go through all that inevitable bullshit: the military? Corporate…

  6. Death is Inconvenient

    My dad died this past June. I have a lot of complicated feelings about it, but the biggest thing I think about is….how your death doesn’t affect you when you’re dead…it just affects everyone who ever knew you...what kind of impact do you want to leave behind?

  7. My Sports Dad Ruined My Self-Worth

    Nobody ever told me “it’s just a game.”

  8. I resent that we were never taught about the duality of life

    Shit isn’t just black and white, light and dark, good and bad…they taught us to chase days in the sun, but never taught us how to sit in the dark

  9. Dr Strange and Trauma - Stop Trying to Fix Your Fucking Hands

    We try to get back to “old me” after surviving trauma…only to eventually realize, that version of you is dead and gone…..so what now?

  10. When Your Body Tells You to Run Away From Them

    The signs were there…the red flags were there…you felt sick around them….but you fucking ignored it…

  11. Performing strength for WHO???

    Why the fuck do we automatically say "oh yeah I'm okay" when we're definitely fucking not? And what good does it do us.....or is it for everyone else?

  12. The privilege component of success they never told us about

    Success = opportunity + preparation....and you can literally only control ONE of those

  13. I used to love motivational speakers and self-help books....

    But then I went through some shit and realized....these versions of success are kinda bullshit

  14. Stop Neglecting that One Habit You Need

    I've been shit lately at making sure I perform the self care habits I know I need to remain balanced and at peace....and I bet you have too m-fer.

  15. Marvel vs. DC

    Relatable characters with flaw and depth beat out hero stories dependent on angst, drama and darkness.

  16. Eternals REVIEW!

    When going to see a movie, managing your expectations will determine whether you enjoy it or not...

  17. Having toxic ppl around is DANGEROUS for your Mental Health

    All it takes is ONE incident...one betrayal, one....whatever....to send you into a mental health crisis. Nip it in the bud before it gets that far.

  18. Some ppl are by your side only for PROXIMITY to you

    Not because they love you, but because of what you can do for them....

  19. People as Nutrition

    Toxicity is always noticeable. Sometimes it's shit we've been ingesting all our lives that we never knew was bad for us.

  20. Are they toxic?...or is it just something you don't wanna hear?

    We been throwing this word around so much, I think some motherfuckers have just found an out to not take constructive criticism. Oop.

  21. Get good at letting go

    Fuck the past if it's being harmful to you now.

  22. They can know when you decide they can know

    You don't owe EVERYONE the details of your life ALL the time.

  23. Extrovert problems- making time to be selfish

    We're not endless balls of light and energy. Even stars die out....

  24. Setting boundaries with toxic parents

    You didn't ask to be born....

  25. Married 7 Years - A look back

    Finding the right person is the simplest part. The rest is actually wanting to make it work...

  26. You can say "NO!!!"

    You ain't gotta pay dues to any person, job, institution, etc that is causing damage to your health and life. Fuck that.

  27. Trust your gut!

    I've learned that the spirit knows things before the brain can catch up. Don't second-guess it. Trust that shit.

  28. MHA Season 5 So Far - Midoriya and Bakugou

    My husband Justin and I talk about Izuku and Katsuki, their strengths and weakness, comparable levels of ridiculous intelligence, their weird ass friendship, and what we anticipate happening in the next season! We also get into random zodiac stuff haha

  29. Black Excellence is Exhausting

    Your life still matters even if you aren't the first Black person to land on Mars or some shit....

  30. Advice for new Black creatives

    You can't avoid the harassment, BUT you can navigate it....

  31. I am not your strong Black woman

    I'm tired of pretending things don't hurt me...and I'm tired of giving society endless permission to abuse me under the assumption that I can't be hurt.... like a beast of burden.

  32. Meghan Markle and the Unique Naivete of Mixed-Race People

    Mixed-Race people very often go through identity crises that can cultivate a naivete in which they don't see racial red flags...I know I was one of them, and I want to share my experience.

  33. Black Girls, Activism is Not Required of You

    You are not required to be Malcom fucking X all the time. You are allowed to just...be...

  34. WandaVision in Review

    I geek out over my thoughts on the series WandaVision and things to come in the MCU!

  35. Thoughts on the Meghan/Harry interview

    The most elite the spaces Black women occupy, the more danger we have of being a target.

  36. Confidence is Fake and That's Okay

    Nobody know what they're doing. We're all just faking it! Also, part of it is just being too tired to care. Listen for more!

  37. Finding Worth Outside of a Job

    Entering my first month not traditionally working, and I'm struggling with finding my worth when I'm not making money for a company. Anyone else dealing with this?! Especially in the times of COVID, I KNOW somebody is.

  39. Ep. 2 Under the Red Hood - Jason Todd Had a F*cking Point!

    We've been watching Batman all our lives, and one of our favorite animated movies is Under the Red Hood. However, now that we're more grown, it's a bit hard to not agree with Jason a bit....or a lot.

  40. How Anime Rules Our Lives!

    Justin and I have always been big nerds...like, since high school. But now, at age 28, between his Yu-Gi-Oh career and my TikTok following, our lives pretty much revolve around weeb-ness!
