The *(Relate)able Podcast: Colorism Roundtable

This week on The *(Relate)able Podcast we attempt our first roundtable on the topic of Colorism (yikes)! There’s so much to unpack with this topic, however we thought it wasn’t really our place to speak on something so important which may not have affected us three ladies in a negative way; so, we invited three friends Taribba, Emma, and Ashlee (See their Instagram profiles / website below) to fill us in on how they may have been affected. There was so much to talk about, and so little time so watch this space as we may need to run part two. 


**Disclaimer if you are triggered by this topic then we understand if you choose to skip this week, we love you and we care that you feel safe with us so it’s arite!


There’s no UTMT this week, however we have an announcement… So, your favorite *(Relate)able hosts will be teaming up with one of our favorite sponsors LesBohemes on this year’s retreat in Dominica from 27th October to 3rd November!!! Remember the early bird special ends on March 31st so please book early to save some cash! Lastly, remember to use the code “RELATABLE” for your 20% discount!
