Today on Life Her Podcast, we’re talking with Tahanee Zarinah, author of the Novel, “Lust Now, Cry Later.”
Tahanee’s journey as a creative includes hosting her popular YouTube Channel, “Bedroom Busters and Bites,” being a relationship columnist, expressing her heart through poetry, and being a novelist - now published by the prestigious street lit expert, Wahida Clark.
Today we discuss her writing process as she created the novel, why she chose to open the book with a realistic and stark depiction of abuse, and whether or not she thinks “writers block” is even a thing.
We’ll hear her thoughts on divine inspiration, and on the interplay between being a creative and being connected with the Creator, and we’ll talk about what that looks like for her in her own life.
Tahanee began writing after her family experienced a tragic loss. Her story of expressing grief through writing is a beautiful reminder of the healing power of expression through art.
Every episode of Life Her Podcast contains a story of Trial to Testimony, and Tahanee’s un-stoppable spirit is contagious as she shares hers. We know you’ll be inspired by her motivation to create, build, and express, and by her entrepreneurial drive to help others grow. She serves others through fostering creative communities online, by reminding us all that we’re never alone when we walk through loss, and by generating conversations about generational wealth.
Tahanee and Yvette also take a few minutes on this episode to discuss the different styles of relationships - traditional verses teamwork - and the beauty of black love. They drop some wisdom about what it takes to have a good relationship in the modern day.
