You Deserve Good Things
In this episode, Jasmine and Melissa share stories to uncover the roots of their relationship with hyper-independence as a trauma response and their struggles with overgiving and discomfort with receiving. Listeners are reminded that their worth is not tied to what they can produce, their status, or the identities we over-identify with, you can’t earn worthiness. You are deserving of good things, because you, as you are, are worthy.

Reunited and It Doesn't Feel So Good
After the separation came a reunification—and that, my friends, was indeed a journey. Jasmine details her move to Columbus, Ohio, to live full-time with her mother and the pieces of herself that got lost in translation during this transition. This period initiated a longstanding pattern she is still working to reclaim: the stifling of her voice. Jasmine and Melissa explore our voices and how we can use words to break generational agreements and shift our realities.

The Silhouette Girl
In the inaugural episode of the OYWTGT podcast, we explore Melissa’s journey into motherhood at the tender age of 14. Having been made to give her baby up for adoption, this story reveals how the experience shaped her evolution as a young woman, and the way she mothered her daughter, Jasmine. Together we uncover the ways we’ve embodied other’s projections, labels, and expectations and the ways they have kept us both living as mere outlines (Silhouette’s), never fully allowing ourselves and others to witness us in our entirety.
