9. Friendship
<p>** Special Extended Episode **</p> <p>Friendships are arguably some of the most important relationships in a person’s life...but they often aren’t treated as such. Inspired by Aminatou Sow and Ann Friedman’s podcast “Call Your Girlfriend” and book “Big Friendship”, we’re talking about how friendships (good and bad) have shaped our lives. Ameera reflects on their pitfalls as a friend, and mistakes they’ve made over the years with friends and explores both the impact and causes of friendship break-ups. Britt discusses how she has moved from relying solely on romantic partners for love and support, to reaching out to friends more as part of her growth. We share our thoughts (and fears) about how we see our friendship evolving as we enter different stages of our life, and talk about how we navigate being friends with others in various life phases. Finally, after a year of racial reckoning, Ameera shares the challenges they experience with their white friends and how interracial friendships need to look different. Want to connect with a close friend on a deeper level? Share this episode with them and discuss!</p>

8. Hospitals, Psych Wards, and Doctors
<p>Ameera and Britt have become experts at navigating the best and worst parts of the mental health system. In today’s episode, we talk about what makes a good doctor for us and think about our good experiences as well as share some cautionary tales about the not-so-good parts. Ameera shares what it was like to be held in a psychiatric ward at a hospital on multiple occasions, and the trauma and isolation they experienced as a result of that. We discuss the unknowns of having to navigate a confusing and overloaded mental health care system, and explore the limitations of a system that can put Black and brown bodies in more danger. Although we’ve had some disappointing experiences, we are so grateful to the health care professionals that work tirelessly every day to make the scariest times in our life a bit easier, and recognize that an overloaded system is just as unfair to them as it is to us.</p>
