A proposito di questo titolo
In this episode, we talk about what it really means to stay connected — to your partner, to your friends, and to yourself — especially when life gets busy, overwhelming, or isolating.
We unpack how some people struggle with being part of a community and disguise that discomfort as "not wanting community" at all. The fear of closeness, accountability, and emotional presence — and how disconnection can quietly become a defense mechanism.
Kelsi reflects on realizing she can sometimes come off mean or distant, not because she doesn't care, but because she's deeply in her own world. Janai opens up about acknowledging that she does crave a relationship — and that her resistance isn't about independence, but about fear of being hurt again.
We also dive into why vulnerability can feel especially hard in spaces with other Black women. How early conditioning, comparison, and competition among little girls can follow us into adulthood, making softness and openness feel unsafe even in rooms meant for sisterhood.
If you've ever struggled with intimacy, community, emotional walls, or letting yourself be seen — this episode is for you.
