Girl...Call Me with Tanya and Jessica
Society & Culture
Girl...Call Me with Tanya and Jessica is a podcast where they share their experiences as black women navigating various aspects of life. The podcast originated from their "Girl Call Me" moments, a phrase they use when they need to share their experiences with someone who understands. They felt that their unique experiences as black women needed to be shared, leading to the birth of the podcast.
In the first season, they focus on health, discussing topics like body image, stress, hypervigilance, and hypochondria. Tanya, a connector with a background in fundraising, reflects on her health journey, including navigating hypervigilance and perimenopause. Jessica, a strategic communications professional, shares her perspective on health, emphasizing the shift from emergency-based care to proactive, preventative measures. The hosts delve into their experiences with healthcare providers, highlighting disparities, biases, and the need for a supportive community. They discuss the challenges of finding suitable doctors, the importance of representation, and the impact of shame surrounding health topics. The conversation explores the need to break down barriers, destigmatize health discussions, and empower black women to take control of their health narratives.
