Black Boomer Besties from Brooklyn
This is what the world needs now: two free-thinking “seasoned” Black women speaking their truth and inspiring others to do the same. Shaped by 45 years of friendship that began at the prestigious Brooklyn Technical High School through the Ivy League, medical school, marriages, divorces, triumphs, parenting queer children, life-threatening illness and many many amazing adventures. Each week, besties Leslie Osei-Tutu and Angella Fraser will push against boundaries in love, culture, careers, faith, politics and out-dated assumptions about women of a certain age. Remember, you’re never too old to change your mind…or your hair! (but more on that later :-)All views are our own and do not reflect the views of our institution/company.

Episode 2
Pivoting - in our careers, where we live, and such - is something many of us have had to do during the pandemic. In this episode, we share how we developed our pivot power way before 2020: Leslie’s circuitous path to medical school at the age of 35 and Angella’s move far from all that was familiar, with her 3 young children (and a pet snail) in tow.
