Ep.2 The Girlfriend Kit:Ask A Colored Girl - The Woman King
“This will be an everlasting love This will be the one I've waited for” - Natalie Cole
How do we “reparent” the little girls that are carried inside? Vashti Dubois and DaSaint dive in with Cassandra Bolding founder of Black Lotus Holistic Health Collective to chat about healing, boundary setting and “The Woman King”. Cassandra is a global thought leader on implementing community-based approaches to destigmatizing mental health, enhancing gender equality programming, and promoting trauma-informed care. Tune in!
The Woman King is a 2022 American historical action drama film about the Agojie, the all-female warrior unit that protected the West African kingdom of Dahomey during the 17th to 19th centuries. Set in the 1820s, the film stars Viola Davis as a general who trains the next generation of warriors to fight their enemies. It is directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood.
We are your official “girlfriends”, in a kit, “because every colored girl should have a girlfriend.”
