Guided by the influence of her professional troublemaking Nigerian grandmother, Funmilayo Faloyin, Luvvie Ajayi Jones walks us through what we must get right within ourselves before we can do the things that scare us. With humor and honesty, she shows us how to use our voice for a greater good; and how to put movement to the voice we've been silencing--because truth-telling is a muscle. Moni and Kat discuss Luuvie's second book of advice on how to get your money, squad up, do too much, and get a Nigerian Friend. They of course end up taking several tangents... leading into hot water cornbread, Picasso, and cultural appropriation. They also released this episode in the wrong order and announce the previous book review as the future book review. Just be cool. They are tired moms and mess stuff up sometimes. Cheers! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ud95UtT61xw - "She Did That" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okH5n9CZbx0 - "Black Art In The Absence Of Light" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QijH4UAqGD8 - Luvvie's TED Talk
