Mama's Sundry Presents: Kitchen Talks: Recent Episodes

Mama

Mama's Sundry's crew offers biweekly discussions about what we're thinking about as it relates to holistic wellness from a very transparent perspective. We are talking about what it's like to be woman, to be black, to be hungry and to be working to live in harmony with the Earth. We focus on food, sustainable living and societal challenges to personal wellness. Ultimately, we're students and we want to be in class with you. Join us at the table!

Join the crew as we start to wrap up Season 001 with an episode unpacking addiction. This episode gets very vulnerable so we ask for your grace and compassion. We know that addiction is something that many of us have navigated, whether within yourself or through a loved one. It's a global illness, one that we believe can serve as an opportunity to be more empathetic, gentle and helpful to your fellow human. Join in on the conversation and share with a friend. Be sure to like this episode and comment if you were moved or feel kinship with us! We love affirmations !
