We don't need white saviors, we need white allies. The time we are in right now calls for our allies to stand strong and be effective.
However, many people do not know what it means to be an ally. They don't understand allyship and definitely don't know where to start to make an impact as an ally.
Allyship is goes beyond saying "we support you". To be an ally is to take action.
In this episode we learn:
- What it means to be an ally
- Tips to help you become an effective ally
- Strategies to help you manage your business as an ally
- How allies can best help the black community
Thank you in advance to all the allies who are taking a stand, the new allies who are listening and learning, preparing to take action. UNITY and LOVE is what the world needs now.

Motherhood and parenting is a universal experience, however the extra loads that black people, especially black mothers, carry often makes our overall motherhood experience a little different.
A black women is a double minority, then add motherhood on to that and the barriers we face, it is a lot for anyone to endure day in and day out.
This episode is different than the rest. Real transparent talk about my experience as a black mother, the struggles many in the black community face, and how our white allies can step up, support and help make the change that is so desperately needeed.
I welcome you to listen with an open mind and open ears. No one has all of the answers. No one will get it right 100% of the time. However, it is important to be aware and take steps to do things differently. As they saying goes, "when you know better, you do better".
This episode is part of #podcastblackout by @cult45 podcast and dedicated the memories of all we have lost to gun violence, police brutality and pure hate including:
- Trayvon Martin
- Tamir RIce
- Michael Brown
- Eric Garner
- Sandra Bland
- Freddie Gray
- Sean Bell
- Alton Sterling
- Philando Catile
- Botham Jean
- Atatiana Jefferson
- Ahmaud Arbery
- Doug Lewis
- Breonna Taylor
- George Floyd
This list could go on and on so remember all of those families impacted by these tragedies.
After listening to this episode, I encourage you to screenshot and share on social media platforms answering the question: "What are you going to do to make a difference?"
Take a step and pick up a book and read (or listen) so you can start to gain an understanding of the experiences of those around you.
