  • DBM Ep 67: Noncustodial Parenting & Black Motherhood with Erica M. Freeman
    2025/05/02
    Dear Mama, What if I told you Black mamas aren’t superheroes, that the cape is choking us, and our backs are brittle? What if I told you motherhood ain’t killing us, though, but the narratives we buy into hook, line, and sinker are? What if you had the option not to be the primary custodial parent? Would you decline out of obligation to the belief that a good Black mama would never choose to leave their children in the care of others, even the other parent? How does a Black mother respond when what’s best for her or her destiny clashes with cultural norms? In this Mother's Day episode, we speak with Erica Michelle Freeman of Sisters In Loss Podcast about the complexities and challenges of non-custodial parenting and Black motherhood. When Erica and her husband decided to divorce, they also agreed to shared custody. Each parent would have primary custody for 3 years of their son Maxwell who was diagnosed with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy 10 years ago. We dive into: ✨Confronting societal norms and cultural stigmas ✨Navigating health and care decisions for children with special needs as a noncustodial parent ✨Historical trauma and Black motherhood ✨Renegotiating Black motherhood PLUS - Crystal and perimenopause are NOT friends, especially under the current administration, and Thea is in search of Jill Stein. In our Black Mama Say segment for this episode, where we put our twist on sayings from Black mamas, and the saying we're twisting this episode is “Oh, you got time for dat.” ABOUT ERICA M. FREEMAN Erica M. Freeman is the Founder and CEO of Sisters in Loss, is a savvy, creative engineer, known for her results-based, no-fluff approach as a podcaster, grief educator, and motivational speaker. Sisters in Loss provides pregnancy, birth, postpartum, bereavement doula, and grief services to help women step beyond anxiety and fear and into trust and peace after loss. Its self-titled award-winning podcast spotlights resilient Black mothers who share intimate details of their journey to motherhood through painful, but inspirational loss and infertility stories.

  • DBM Ep 66: The 92%, Boundaries & Black Motherhood
    2025/04/08

    Dear Mama,

    How do we resist the urge to rescue when we’ve been taught our whole lives to be saviors? How do we set boundaries when the world is burning? What do we do when we’ve been deemed the backbone of the community, but our backbones are brittle and breaking? Since the election, these are the questions and conversations black women have been having online and, especially, in group chats. So, we decided to explore what this line in the sand means for Black mothers in the midst of state-sanctioned brutality.

    In this episode, Thea and I explore the parallels between domestic violence relationships and Black mothers' relationship with America.

    We dive into:

    ✨Why it’s more important than ever that Black mothers set boundaries

    ✨The role cultural coping plays in Black mothers ignoring their needs

    ✨Vulnerability & why Black mothers feel we must do it all

    ✨What Stevie Wonder songs reflect this moment

    PLUS - Thea shares a testimony about getting a new mattress, and I’m excited to share the details of our next virtual event, Down By the Riverside, during our Church Announcements, Praise Reports, and Prayer List Requests segment. In our Black Mama Say segment for this episode, where we put our own twist on sayings from Black mamas, we do something a little different this time. Instead of a Black Mama Say, we’re choosing theme songs to carry us through this moment.

    IMPORTANT CHURCH ANNOUNCEMENTS:

    • Black Maternal Health 2025 kicks off on April 11th
    • REGISTER NOW for Down By the Riverside Sunday, April 13th, noonPT/3pm ET. Space is limited.
    • To expand knowledge and combat misinformation and disinformation, we create a syllabus for each episode (s/o to Melissa Harris-Perry), a list of references/sources for our listeners to dive into. This list includes any books, videos, podcasts, etc., that we've mentioned in the episode or that will help you gain a well-informed perspective.
