Gotta Be Honest: Recent Episodes

Black Diamond

Every once in a while, you feel the urge to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Welcome to Gotta be Honest, the brainchild of three Black women living in Toronto (ok, not really Toronto, but close enough), who realized they needed a space where they could say EXACTLY what was on their minds. If you wanna hear the sweetest tea, real insight into women’s minds, and learn a little bit more about what it means to be a Black woman in Canada, this podcast is just for you.

Remember... sometimes, you just gotta be honest.
