  • Celebrate and recap fifty episodes of Podcasting Is the New Kink!

    Celebrate and recap fifty episodes of Podcasting Is the New Kink!
    Jul 10 2024
    50 episodes! WTF?! Most podcasts don't even make it past 3, so this is a reason to celebrate! In this episode I talk about why I started this podcast in the first place and how it has progressed over the last two years. I also recap all 49 episodes so far.This podcast started off as a resource for podcasting. I wanted to give you insight and tips. And, I did that. The first season was all about Podcasting 101. I talked about everything you needed to start a podcast: topics, equipment, mindset, etc. I even shared the steps to start a podcast for free!Soon after that, I realized that I didn't want the podcast to be all about podcasting. I wanted to collaborate and interview. I wanted to discuss other topics. So, I started experimenting...The second season of Podcasting Is the New Kink! was all about HBO's Lovecraft Country. It was my first review and it sort-of set the tone for future seasons. I talked about my favorite and least-liked moments, themes that drove the story line, and diversions from the book and more. I get really passionate about my shows and you could tell by how I started sharing more of my personal opinions, letting you in. But, something was nagging at me to go deeper, so the third season was all about me! I shared a few of the journeys that changed my life and helped me to become more of myself, and it felt really good to get a lot of that off my chest. After that, I was ready to keep experimenting, so I tried interviews. In season four I interviewed clients: my first, current, former, and... my mom. Lol. She wanted to start a podcast and I knew I would be comfortable with her. We talked about leaning into your curiosity, growing through guilt, and more.And, that brought us to episode 25, which was another celebration just like this! If you haven't noticed, I like to celebrate! :)The next season of Podcasting Is the New Kink! was all about FX's Kindred, which was cancelled after one season. And I am PISSED because they didn't even finish the story! I talked about that in the season. I also talked about diversions from the book, themes and characters, predictions for the season that we may never get and more.Season six was all about intimate partnerships! I sat down with The Amazing Clarks, Dee and Bee Hendershot (Truth and Coffee Time), and Snooks and Lovey Cason (Married Into Crazy). I learned so much from them and I absolutely recommend them! After I got my free sessions from the experts, I talked to a few of my friends who are in relationships and I honestly learned a lot from them as well. I also brought my partner back to talk about the major themes that came up in just about every episode.That brings us to the current season which is all about Black Women Yogis. I spoke to many yogis about the benefits and versatility of yoga, especially for POC, and getting out of your comfort zone. But, to be honest, this season is moreso about healing! So, I also spoke to other healing practitioners about how Black people can heal!ReferencesPoddster ArticleExploding Topics Article Podcasting Is the New Kink! is a Black-owned, woman-owned podcast, and we support other Black, Indigenous, Women of Color-owned podcasts and businesses.

  • The Importance of Building Trust Within Your Community with Meli Acevedo

    The Importance of Building Trust Within Your Community with Meli Acevedo
    Jun 19 2024
    It's all about community. That was the resounding message in this episode with Meli Acevedo, certified yoga instructor, climate and environmental justice warrior, and overall badass! No matter what we talked about, the conversation always looped back to the importance of community and building trust. And, let me tell you, we discussed it all!We talk:Why it's important to build community - 12:05My intro to yoga story - 25:31Being aware of the energy shared in yoga classes - 33:14Having discernment in helping - 41:41Yoga is for every body. Period! - 55:57Detaching from perfectionism - 1:07:36Meli teaches us how to have the discernment to help others. Many times, we get so caught up in the "help," part, that we don't pay attention to the "how," or the "what." Meaning, we want to help people so badly that we aren't interested in how they need to be helped or what we can actually provide. Her advice is to take it step-by-step:First ask yourself: what is your role in situation?Then ask yourself: what’s your capacity to help?Then, ask the person you want to help for permissionWe also talk about perfection and I almost gagged when she said, "Perfection does not exist!" If you've listened to season one of this podcast or followed @pinkladyprod on Instagram or TikTok, then you heard me say something like this at least once. And it is something I absolutely believe!I used to be a perfectionist. I would stress over every little detail of every little thing. How I looked, how I sounded, how I was perceived by everyone... I had to learn, through years of life coaching and a spiritual journey that is kicking my butt (in a good way), that what I was striving for was a fake, shallow version of myself. And, I had no control over all the things I was trying to control. What can go wrong, will go wrong! So here's my unsolicited advice to all of the perfectionists of the world: Instead of striving to be perfect, strive instead to do your best and be your authentic self.Check out Meli on Instagram @fatbrowngirlyoga.Episode References:Hood Feminism - book by Mikki KendallDiRTYOGA on InsatgramIgnite Yoga & Wellness InstituteEp. 4 - Forget about perfection and start your podcast!Ep. 44 - with Ebony MolockEp. 46 - with Black Rose Yogini*Get your ticket for The Black Love Healing Circle today on Eventbrite and use code PINKLADY for $10 off!

  • Why Black People Don't Do Yoga with Qyera Parks

    Why Black People Don't Do Yoga with Qyera Parks
    Jun 12 2024
    We are back with another episode of Podcasting Is the New Kink!, and we are back with another amazing Black women yogi! Last week's episode was all about breathwork and I think it's a great segue back into our yogis because this episode is all about breath movement aka yoga.Our western culture has made yoga seem like it's all about the poses! It's all about getting that burn and working out your body. But today we are getting a reminder of what yoga is really about: the breath. Today's yogi is a certified yoga instructor, children's author, and business owner, who has been in the wellness space for years. She fully understands pivoting in your business, because she has done it a number of times. And, she is actually a friend from high school, who hails from the great Paterson, NJ, just like me. Lol.Her name is Qyera Parks and she works with children, teaching them yoga, and about mental health and wellness. And, ya'll know how much I love it! Working with children is not for the faint of heart. They will test you and try you in every way possible. But it is really one of the most rewarding things I have ever done. And, reaching them at a young age, teaching them how to manage their emotions and regulate their reactions is so important! It's really giving them a better chance at life.In this episode we discuss the many phases of her business, going to India for her yoga teaching certification, being the only Black person in a yoga space, and much more!We talk:How Qyera's business started and the journey until now - 1:55Benefits of yoga - 12:59Being the only Black person in yoga spaces - 22:28Mindful Moments with Friends': Breathwork for Kids 5-8 - 34:22Advice for new yogis - 40:49We also get pretty deep, talking about why many Black people don't try yoga. As much as I would love to blame "them" and say that yoga has been gentrified (which it has), Qyera brings up a great point about "us" not showing up. And, she is so right. Part of the reason I wanted to interview yogis this season was to introduce yoga to many of you who aren't interested because you think it's not for you. Let me tell you, it is absolutely for you. And I dare you to try it!Check out Qyera's website cintalab.com and connect with her on IG @cintamovesAND get her book Mindful Moments with Friends': Breathwork for Kids 5-8 on AmazonEpisode References:Siddhant School of YogaThe Lay OutDr. Masaru Emoto's water study*Get your ticket for The Black Love Healing Circle today on Eventbrite and use code PINKLADY for $10 off!
