On this rollercoaster of an episode, Avox and I, Charity dive headfirst into what we've dubbed the 'crush recession' – where finding a decent crush feels as rare as a unicorn sighting. Blaming the daily grind for our romance drought, we ponder on whether our obsession with work is snuffing out our love lives. Shifting gears, we share from personal experiences, confronting the biases that can gatekeep necessary health services and challenge the oversimplified narratives that exclude and label. From gym encounters to the trending use of weight loss drugs, we're discussing the complex relationship between body image and the path to wellness. It's not all doom and gloom though! We've got a hilarious tale to share about an Uber ride that turned another dull commute into an oasis of laughter. Because sometimes, all it takes is a dash of humor to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary.So grab your headphones and join the conversation because #ItsAMouthful (00:09) - The Crush Crisis(11:17) - BMI perceptions(17:53) - Body Image and Society: Leave me alone(26:54) - Diversity, Equity and Inclusion?(40:03) - I'm an Angry Black Woman
