Black Friend Therapy

Send us a text

We talk about this in the episode, but friendship relationships aren’t regarded with the same seriousness as romantic relationships and that’s a shame, cause it has the potential to hurt us just as bad when it goes wrong. Add “Black” to the conversation and it takes a different angle. This is just two friends hashing out their past mistakes and trying to find ways to maintain connectivity and rise above what they’ve been taught and become. What does therapy mean in the black community? 

I want to be conformed to love 
Show me what to do again
Show me how to win your love
I want to be conformed to love
So I can perform love

I want to be conformed to love
So I can make more love
I want to be pure pure love
So I can restore love
So I can make more love
