  • Mental Health – Coping, Connection & Care
    Apr 25 2025

    In this episode of And Here We Are, we dive into the layered topic of mental health — from the stigma that exists in the Black community to the real-life moments that made us realize something had to change.

    We explore how our circle impacts our mental space, how working from home leads to burnout, and how tools like journaling, therapy, and simple mood boosters can be game-changers. You’ll hear heartfelt stories and honest conversations about postpartum depression, anxiety, and how we show up for our loved ones.

    This is your reminder that you don’t have to carry it all alone — there is help, there is hope, and there is healing.

  • What Will You Go to War For?
    Apr 14 2025

    In this episode of And Here We Are, Dee and Tee ask the hard-hitting question: What would you go to war for? 💭 We're not talking literal battles—but the emotional ones. The hills you're willing to die on in relationships, friendships, careers, and even your peace of mind.

    From fighting for love and loyalty to cutting ties with friends or jobs for a partner—this one gets deep. We also unpack the meaning of closure: when it’s needed, what healthy closure looks like, and why some people chase it while others walk away without it.

    Plus, we react to a wild viral post: A husband ends the honeymoon early after finding out his bride texted her ex goodbye the morning of the wedding. Was she wrong, or just trying to get closure?

    🔹 Topics We Dive Into:

    • Emotional battles worth choosing
    • Standing 10 toes down in relationships
    • Friendship vs. romantic loyalty
    • The evolution of what we fight for in our 20s vs. 50s
    • What happens when we don’t get closure?
    • Real talk from the internet streets

    🎙️ Tune in, reflect, and share your thoughts with us!
