In today’s episode, my friend Amanda Hahonou joins us.
We talk about her life, how she copes with anger and the challenges she faces as a mixed woman experiencing two different worlds: one where she is not Black enough and another where she is considered White and gets to experience the privileges of that.
In this episode, we touch on the following:
🎙️How Amanda and Jazzlyn met.
🎙️ Amanda’s upbringing and how she, as a mixed child, experienced two different worlds.
🎙️The impacts on her mental health.
🎙️The relationship with her White mother.
🎙️How she deals with anger related to racism.
🎙️Why the Meghan & Harry documentary fires her up.
