This episode was sponsored by Planned Parenthood of NYC (@ppnycaction). You can learn more about their various services by visiting ppnyc.org -- This week, we venture into an uncharted topic of conversation (for us)... sex. We invited Samia of Sexual Essentials LLC on to share her expertise, give some insight to her brand and answer some listener questions. Samia’s mission statement To teach, encourage and promote the sexual extensions of ourselves, which we think is a fantasy. With the correct knowledge, passion and partner there is no reason that everyone cannot have the sex life that they truly desire. To create a place to discuss the intimates of sex. Let’s be frank, we’re all grown. We speak everything into existence over our lives EXCEPT for sex. Sexual Essentials is here to educate and stimulate your sexual desires into fruition. The goal is to become comfortable with sexuality, not just portions of it, but all of it because no one has ever desired to have subpar sex. #SorryButNotSorry Listener Submitted Questions Why do women tend to hide their masturbation tendencies or their interest from porn? What are signs that your partner enjoys the sex as much as you do? Best positions for g-spot stimulation? How can I squirt? Any tips? What are some tricks to avoid locked jaw during oral? How many times a week is a healthy amount to have sex? Is sucking Toes ok? Can you really get sick from eating ass?

This episode was sponsored by Planned Parenthood of NYC (@ppnycaction). You can learn more about their various services by visiting ppnyc.org --- This week we are joined by Juwan and Pitter who are 2/3 of Pilot Talk Podcast to talk about the anticipation (if that) around marriage. We conclude with playing a question game. Here are the questions Do you actually know what you are doing in most situations? or do you just act like you know what you are doing? How can you describe your legal, legitimate job so it sounds illegal or sketchy? What is a green flag in someone that makes you think 'they're a good person'? What is something women have seen in romantic comedies that you wish they would stop expecting you to do in real life? What insecurities do you often see in women that men couldn’t care less about? What is something you genuinely do not understand? What’s one moment where you realized that life isn't that bad? Your options are: 50 hawks, 10 crocodiles, 3 brown bears, 15 wolves, 1 hunter, 7 cape buffalo, 10,000 rats, 5 gorillas and 4 lions - you must pick 2 that will defend you while the rest are coming to kill you. Which do you pick and why? There's a room in your house where time doesn't flow. You could stay in there for as long as you could possibly want, and not a second will have passed outside that room. What would you use this room for? What conspiracy theory, if proven true without a shadow of a doubt, would cause the most chaos in less than 24 hours? --- Listen to their show on Apple Podcasts or Soundcloud by searching Pilot Talk Podcast Follow Pilot Talk Podcast on social media Instagram @Pilottalkpodcast Twitter @PilotTalkPod #ptpodcast Follow 2/3 of the hosts Juwan Twitter @_jugatti IG @juknowit Pitter Twitter @pitterhotspitta --- Join us on Saturday Dec 15th from 7pm - 10pm to celebrate reaching 100 episodes.

Today's topic stems from a realization we had that although we have had our feelings hurt throughout dating, we have never had our hearts broken that's probably because we have never been in love before. Here's the tweet that sparked the episode. (https://twitter.com/wecomefromqns/status/834496223872745476 ) In this episode we are going to have a guided conversation much like our New Year episode about our most recent failed dating experience. Keep It Simple - We recap our last failed dating experience Using Iyanla’s Recovery After Long Term Relationship video as a guide (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-PC-2Vtkw8) * Acceptance * You have to accept that the relationship is over and that you will recover
 * Grieving healing requires that you share your thoughts and feelings about the loss so that you can adjust your mind and heart and spirit. Without sharing, chances are you’ll get stuck and sta stuck in mourning ( meaning thinking shoulda coulda wouldas = different outcome)
 * Celebrate the good days, know that you deserve them * Remove things from your environment that remind you of the person * Figure out if you can still be friends * You have left physically but the layers such as emotionally spiritually leaving is still going on * Establish boundaries and guidelines for communication * Do the things you love even if you once loved doing those things as a couple * Avoid a rebound relationship * Seek professional help if depression becomes chronic * This is just a place to start
 in this video Iyanla ends with “It’s important that you train yourself not to be loyal to people who don’t treat you well. Be mindful to protect yourself mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually from energy vampires and emotional rapists who will make you feel guilty about how they treat you, remember your first priority is you.” Quote People should not judge failed love affairs as failed experiences but as part of the growth process. Something does not have to end well for it to have been one of the most valuable experiences of a lifetime. - Ethel Person, medical doctor and psychoanalyst (via M yleik IG Story) Twitter @SylvesterMcNutt I genuinely hope you get the happiness you deserve. I hope you have the courage to leave a toxic situation, the strength to recover from one, and the wisdom to know how to avoid them entirely.

This week we brought back honorary cohost Alicia of @cubiclesandcurls to join as we break down the “Pick Me” culture. ——- Guest Info Alicia Twitter: @Alicington Instagram: @cubiclesandcurls ----- Questions and Topics For Discussion “What is Pick Me Culture?” How does it affect us personally and/or collectively? Unpack Original Thread . . .Thoughts? Is the woman who wrote the tweet doing this to be “picked?” Is this really the “formula” for getting the “right” man? Read the response to the Thread . . . Thoughts? Do you think women really compete for the affection of men? [Consider the women who you surround yourself with.] How much of this “pick me” culture is rooted in origin/ what we have been taught since young? Make reference to Alicia’s Statement from Episode 59: Non-Coachable Sistas where she states “I also have a lot of problems with the bible because I feel like it is so male centric.”

We’ve been telling y’all for quite some time now that we come from Queens. We think it’s finally time for you to meet the Queens we’ve been referencing! This week, our special guests are our moms. In this special Mother’s Day episode we chat with them about their influence how it has shaped us as we evolve into our own type of Queens. Unpacking Typical Black Mom Quotes "Do you have McDonald's money?" "You better shut up before I give you something to cry about." "I'm not one of your little friends." "I hope you know that school work like you know them songs." "Didn't I tell you..." "You smell like outside." "If someone hits you first, you hit them back." Questions For Monique Cadacia What was your mother’s role in your home? Do you think she liked it? Did your mother work outside of your home and how did that affect your desire to work? What do you admire about your mother? In what ways is your mother your role model? How have you followed in the footsteps of your mother? In what ways do you think you are similar to her? What advice did your mother give you that really has stuck with you? What things did your mother say to you that influenced the decisions you have made in your twenties? Has your mother said or does she continue to say certain things to or about you that affect your self esteem or self image? How was your mother’s relationship with her mother? How do you think your mother’s relationships with others impacted how you behave in relationships with others? Questions For The Moms I maintain the sentiment that being a mom is one of the most selfless acts one could do. What is the biggest sacrifice you’ve made as a mother? Who do you/ did you look up to for a “motherhood framework/ blueprint?” What is the most valuable lesson you learned from your mom? What is the most valuable lesson you’ve learned from your dad? What is the most valuable lesson you’ve learned as a result of being a mom? If you could impart anything on your child(ren) what would it be? In raising children, who were/are your “mom” friends? What do you think of your work?/ Did you do a good job at being a mom? Can you tell us about one moment when you realized “ my kid(s) is not a child anymore or the moment you realized that they’re “grown”? More Questions For Monique Cadacia Most memorable moment you have of/with your mom. Aside from the fact that mom’s actually are superheroes, if you could give your mom any superpower what would it be? More Questions For The Moms What were the 3 most fun and exciting aspects or events of your 20s? Do you have any other words of wisdom that you think could be of value to people in their 20s as well as those such as ourselves who are about to enter their 30s? Quote As it stands, motherhood is a sort of wilderness through which each woman hacks her way, part martyr, part pioneer; a turn of events from which some women derive feelings of heroism, while others experience a sense of exile from the world they knew.

Technology is one of those things we CANNOT escape. We have become so technologically advanced. How much of it is to our benefit? How much of it is to our detriment? In this week’s episode, we discuss what it has done to us as a society. -------- Questions Discussed How tech savvy would you consider yourself to be? What is your favorite form of technology and why? At what point during your lifetime do you remember technology making the shift to where it is today? What surprises you most? How has technology benefited you? How has technology hindered you? Is the increase of technology making us lazy as a whole? We pretty much do everything online these days. We all find our potential cars, houses, goods, and even spouses online. But How far is too far? /What would you not search for online? How many times do we prefer to text over talking over the phone? Online shopping is on the rise as well as ordering food online.There’s a site called taskrabbit where you can get others to run your errands for you.How many millennials our age will actually learn how drive with Uber at their disposal? Right now our country is working on cars that will park themselves! Is this too much luxury for our generation?" ----- Unpack The Quote! Technology can be our best friend, and technology can also be the biggest party pooper of our lives. It interrupts our own story, interrupts our ability to have a thought or a daydream, to imagine something wonderful, because we're too busy bridging the walk from the cafeteria back to the office on the cell phone. All of the biggest technological inventions created by man - the airplane, the automobile, the computer - says little about his intelligence, but speaks volumes about his laziness. - Mark Kennedy (Author) The great myth of our times is that technology is communication. - Libby Larsen (Composer) ------ Around The Way!

It is unfortunate that a lot of people can bond over the absence of a father. Growing up Black in America, we all have one or some in our inner circles who know what it feels like to grow up in a household with mom holding it down solo. We unpack this narrative a bit this week and pair it with some songs that relate to the experience.

This week we break down the pros and cons of being "busy" using the article "The Disease of Being Busy" (onbeing.org/blog/the-disease-of-being-busy/) by Omid Safi (twitter.com/ostadjaan) as our guide. Questions for reflection *Would you consider yourself a busy person? *What are you busy doing? *Has that ever been an ideal for you? *How did we get here (being so busy)? *How do you feel when there is an extended period of time when you are not busy? *Would you consider being busy an addiction or a disease? Quotes from the article “This disease of being “busy” (and let’s call it what it is, the dis-ease of being busy, when we are never at ease) is spiritually destructive to our health and wellbeing. It saps our ability to be fully present with those we love the most in our families, and keeps us from forming the kind of community that we all so desperately crave.” *Has it been destructive for you? *Work/ life balance. Do you have that? "In many Muslim cultures, when you want to ask them how they’re doing, you ask: in Arabic, Kayf haal-ik? or, in Persian, Haal-e shomaa chetoreh? How is your haal?" What is this haal that you inquire about? It is the transient state of one’s heart. In reality, we ask, “How is your heart doing at this very moment, at this breath?” When I ask, “How are you?” that is really what I want to know.” “Tell me you remember you are still a human being, not just a human doing. Tell me you’re more than just a machine, checking off items from your to-do list. Have that conversation, that glance, that touch. Be a healing conversation, one filled with grace and presence.” *Do you have an internal barometer to tell when you are getting to be too busy? *When you find yourself getting to be too busy, how do you reel it in? *Do you think there is this glorification of being busy? Episode quote brought to you by Cadacia 'Crazy-busy' is a great armor, it's a great way for numbing. What a lot of us do is that we stay so busy, and so out in front of our life, that the truth of how we're feeling and what we really need can't catch up. Two Cents by Alicia D of Cubicles Curls (cubiclesandcurls.com/)

As we bask in the latter years of our twenties, we can’t help but to be confronted with the inevitable “biological clock.” Even when we aren’t mentally entertaining the internal dialogue, someone always comes around to ask “So when are you having kids?” We invited a couple of men to weigh in on the conversation for varied perspective. This episode is broken up into two parts. First an interview with the upcoming podcast Enter Tha Minds. The join us for the second part in discussing the male biological clock and more. Enter Tha Minds minds is a podcast where four millennial men tr to gain guidance and the answers to life's questions. Their show will be launching on April 9th.

There has been much conversation surrounding what the term “Afro-Latino” means. We take a small moment to define the term for ourselves; discuss our experiences growing up as Afro-Latinas; as well as dig into the current conversation surrounding the term. Is it even that big of deal? We'd like to take the time to thank Your Average Afrolatina for highlighting us in " 10 Podcasts Created by Afro-Latinx" https://www.youraverageafrolatina.com/single-post/2018/01/19/10-Podcasts-Created-by-Afro-Latinx Also shoutout to Cadacia's mom who was cooking in the kitchen!

We are true 80’s babies who were raised in the 90’s. With that, there are a ton of things that we can bond over with others in our age range. One of those is, without a doubt, TV Shows!

This week we break down the word "friend" and talk about the highs and lows of friendships during the course of our lives thus far. We'd like to thank Alicia of Cubicles Curls (http://www.cubiclesandcurls.com/) for submitting this topic! ----------------------- Talking points What defines a friend? How has your definition of a friend evolved throughout the different stages of your life - from childhood to adolescent through adulthood thus far? What shifts have you noticed in the types of friendships you've maintained? Who do you prefer to be friends with -- men or women? Why? Do you buy the narrative that "women are to ____ to befriend?" ----------------------- Supporting article "Roxane Gay Lists 13 Rules for Female Friendships" (http://womensenews.org/2014/09/roxane-gay-lists-13-rules-for-female-friendships/) (4) Sometimes, your friends will date people you cannot stand. You can either be honest about your feelings or you can lie. There are good reasons for both. Sometimes you will be the person dating someone your friends cannot stand. If your man or woman is a scrub, just own it so you and your friends can talk about more interesting things. My go-to explanation is “I am dating an asshole because I’m lazy.” You are welcome to borrow it. (5) Want nothing but the best for your friends because when your friends are happy and successful, it’s probably going to be easier for you to be happy. (6) Tell your friends the hard truths they need to hear. They might get pissed about it, but it’s probably for their own good. Once, my best friend told me to get my love life together and demanded an action plan, and it was irritating but also useful. 6A. Don’t be totally rude about truth telling and consider how much truth is actually needed to get the job done. Finesse goes a long way. 6B. These conversations are more fun when preceded by an emphatic “GIRL.” (10) When something is wrong and you need to talk to your friends and they ask you how you are, don’t say “Fine.” They know you’re lying and it irritates them and a lot of time is wasted with the back-and-forth of “Are you sure?” and “Yes?” and “Really?” and “I AM FINE.” Tell your lady friends the truth so you can talk it out and either sulk companionably or move on to other topics. (7) Surround yourself with women you can get sloppy drunk with who won’t draw stupid things on your face if you pass out, and who will help you puke if you overcelebrate, and who will also tell you if you get sloppy drunk too much or behave badly when you are sloppy drunk. (13) My mother’s favorite saying is “Qui se ressemble s’assemble.” Whenever she didn’t approve of whom I was spending time with, she’d say this ominously. It means, essentially, you are whom you surround yourself with. ----------------------- This week's episode was sponsored by Sudio Sweden Visit sudiosweden.com and use the code QUEENS15 to get 15% off any purchase and they provide free world wide shipping ----------------------- Connect with us!

There's a stigma that black men typically show up for women of different races (other than Black) much quicker than they would for Black women. There is also the stigma that Black women are too strong, have too much attitude and are just too much in general.

We decided to have this episode follow our Black Entrepreneurial Series because entrepreneurship is so glamorized. Most people will tell you the upside to it. The other side can be the difficulties and hardships that come with entrepreneurship. Although this episode isn't specifically about entrepreneurship it is about a real life experience that people typically do not open up about. We talk about being (financially) privileged and what it can be like to lose that privilege. Homelessness is a real thing and we break it down here.

We recently learned of a rap artist named Ryan Nicole. We were blown away by her artistry and, conveniently, she was in NY and could spare some time to talk. During our chat with her, we learned that rapping isn't her only gift and we find out more about why she is known for being a "quadruple threat." Check out our interview with her and make sure you support! BTW Monique is on vacation, so we got the guys of The Cure Podcast to co-host!

As “millennials,” it appears that social media is at the heart of all that we do. We’re constantly doing it for the gram, snapping our vacations, sliding in someone’s dms and ultimately making personal moments public because of the hunger for likes. Social Media is both a blessing and a curse. Listen to our stance on the social media charged world that we live in.

In continuing with our dating #allsummer16 series, we have to distinguish between the two types of men women will encounter in a relationship: A Simp and an Alpha Male. I’m pretty sure at some point we have all encountered the two. How do you distinguish and what do you do when you have either on your hands? Well we don’t have all of the answers and so we invited our former “camera man” Terrel in on the conversation for some male perspective.

Situationships are the thing these days. Many people end up in situationships quicker than relationships for various reasons. This week, we break down the term, tap into our own experiences with situationships and invite a male voice into the conversation. Kiren aka @NonProphet_ makes some valuable points about reasons men lure women themselves into situationships without that being the initial intention.

Growing up in a Black household and being surrounded by peers who are predominatntly Black, it is easy to develop our own niche through language alone.

A while back we did a podcast about gender roles. In distinguishing the role of male and female when it comes to relationships, we discuss ways to ensure that the female does not overstep her boundaries within her role and, ultimately, let a man be a man.

Our avid listeners know that Cadacia is an educator and it is something she is truly passionate about (as she’s mentioned several times). Her current job assignment has prompted her question the institution of education in America and also specifically in NYC.
