During Black History Month, Two Naturalistas Are Making Herstory!

Recently, my daughter and I decided to start a podcast.  We are both Ivy League graduates.  I attended Yale and she attended Harvard for our Master's Degree and we both attended Columbia University Teachers College for our doctorates.  On our podcast, we explain how we ended up going to the same graduate school for our doctorates in one of our episodes entitled:  Ivy League Realities As Black Women.


When I started working on my doctorate, my daughter was two years old.  She used to be on campus, when my husband would bring her there as we also had a near newborn son.  Now, to have the opportunity to speak with her in the podcast forum, is a  joyous gift!





As two naturalists, we discuss various topics including Birth and the Myth of 35, Money and Scarcity Consciousness, Educating Our Children and Why It Takes a Village, Health Care Reform Through Self-Empowerment and of course the truthful reality that the Natural Hair Revolution has happened. There are other episodes (eight in total) and more to come as we will focus on love and marriage (33 + Years and Counting for Valentines Day and Black History Month before the end of February and many more episodes in the future.

I hope that you enjoy this new venture.  The media primarily limits discourse to politics, these days, but there is so much more to discuss.  We have opened a window into our mother daughter dialogue and we hope you enjoy the Ivy Roses Podcast and find it worthy of your time. You will find all episodes here: https://soundcloud.com/user-13174018 as well as on iTunes, Spotify and Stitcher. Be sure, after listening to comment/rate/review (depending on the platform of your choice) and subscribe.
