Perfectionism is defined as “refusal to accept any standard short of perfection.” In philosophy it is “a doctrine holding that perfection is attainable, especially the theory that human moral or spiritual perfection should be or has been attained.” | The Oxford Dictionary

In our season finale, we are unpacking the complexities of perfectionism, its origins, the role society plays as well as our own struggle with perfectionism. 

Do you grapple with perfectionism? How do you manage it?

Surprise!!!

On this very special bonus episode, we are excited to be coming to you live from Portimão, Portugal where we got to experience the 3-day Afro Nation Festival! What an experience! We delve into the process of organising ourselves for the festival, where to stay for the Afro Nation Festival, what to expect, what surprised us, what we were glad to see and if it’s something we would recommend.

From Uncle Waffles leaving us speechless, to Tyler ICU getting us to dance til’ our feet hurt, Major League Djz bringing errrbody on the stage with them, seeing Tyla perform ‘Water’ in a full-circle moment to Asake and his fire gun - we had a tiiiiiiime!! Being in a long-distance friendship, we do not take it for granted that we got to do this ‘first’ as friends - a memory that we will cherish for life.

We are also excited to announce that we have officially joined the BlakCast Podcast Network which is part of the iHeart Podcast Network family - making this special episode that much sweeter!

Tune in to hear all our thoughts and sentiments.

BONUS | It's Layered | Delve Deeper Into... AfroNation! (Recorded in Portimão, Portugal)

Privilege is a complex thing. 

Those who have it often don't realise how much it makes life easier for them. Those who don't understand all too well how much the lack of that privilege affects their lives. 

In this episode, we go a little deeper and unpack the complexities of knowing you have privilege and what you can do with it to help others.

We'd love to hear from you!

The Special | Episode 2 | Delve Deeper Into.. Privilege

Welcome to The Special Series!

We know, we know! You’ve gotten to know us before and we’re doing it again! Here’s the thing, we last did a ‘Delve Deeper On Us’ as our very first episode - a whole 4 years ago. A couple of things have changed since then - and we’d like to think we’ve grown a little too. 




In this episode, we talk about our green flags, what would bring us knocking on each other’s door late at night; fun facts and tidbits for you to enjoy.




Let us know what surprised you, what tracks and what you thought we’d say in the comments!
