As women, we care for our children, our partners, our homes; we tend to our jobs, our business, our pets, and the list goes on. We are constantly pouring into other people and other things. If you're not practicing self-care, that cup is going to run out before you know it. 

We've all taken a nap or just taken a step back and felt completely guilty. But why? We need to rest and recharge. And more importantly, we DESERVE it. 

You've heard this before...Self-care is NOT Selfish! This week we're talking about making self-care a priority. Take care of yourself the way you take care of your kids or clients. Do something that makes you happy. Something that makes you feel good. The more you take care of yourself, the more you will be able to show up for the people that you love and care about.

We're discussing a pretty heavy topic that honestly, should be talked about more...Teen Dating Violence. 

Even if your children are still young, and nowhere near dating age, it's important to know how to talk to your kids about teen domestic violence and for you to know how to recognize the signs.

According to the Teen Dating Violence website, "Healthy relationships require hard work, communication, and a level of maturity that may not be present in teens. As a result, many teen relationships – nearly one-third – are characterized as either unhealthy or violent."
www.teendvmonth.org

Teen dating violence is not just physical, but can also include emotional abuse, sexual abuse, and stalking. It can take place in person, or more commonly on social media. Nearly 1.5 million girls and boys have admitted to being in an unhealthy relationship. Unfortunately, teenagers are not the most forthcoming so we need to make them feel safe and comfortable with communications with us.

We are honored to be joined by Yolanda Oliver of @live_fearless_inc. Live Fearless, Inc. is not a passion project for Yolanda, it is her life journey. She is 1 in 4 women who've experienced violence in a relationship. She is the 68% of children exposed to violence in her home, not only did she survive she now thrives. Thriving did not come without struggles as Yolanda openly shares. A seed of purpose was planted in Yolanda, to serve women and children who are in crisis, fighting their way out of domestic violence situations with assistance to help them navigate through the struggles with support and resources as they journey to living withOUT fear!

Many of our kids are either back in school or headed to school very soon, some of them for the first time.

With COVID on the rise again, a lot of parents are also considering homeschooling their children this school year.

Though we have tried our hand at teaching our babies and toddlers, how do we nurture them to be diligent students and love learning for many years to come?

How can we turn everyday activities into opportunities for learning and growth?

We are joined by a very special guest, Da’Quisha Whitaker (@dmwhitaker_writes). Quisha is an Author, Educator, Blogger, Podcaster, and lover of all things books! And she has some answers to those questions.

D.M. Whitaker has spent ten years educating children and youth inside and outside the classroom as a former social service worker and teacher. Teaching children to be their best selves through social and functional skill enrichment, affirmations and genuine love, has always been her passion. It wasn't until she became a stay-at-home mother, that she embraced her longtime love of storytelling, and began writing stories that would help parents, teachers and caregivers teach their children in fun, educational and creative ways. She has been married to her husband, Brandon, and they have two boys, Duce, 4 and Elisha, 1. They currently reside in Nebraska.

She joined us to drop some gems and discussed how to find out your child's learning style and incorporate that in their learning inside and outside of the classroom.

Do you know your child's learning style? Have you found that they retain information better from audio, video, read/write or kinesthetic education?

]]> For Better or Worse Sasha & Shara 00:43:28 We are all familiar with the traditional marriage vows: "I, Sasha take thee, Richard, to be my wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part." But have you really thought about the "in sickness and in health" part? Like REALLY thought about it. What if your spouse had a stroke and required 'round the clock care? What if they suffered from mental health issues and needed you to be their caregiver? Do you think you would be able to cope with that? Today, we are joined by Jennifer, from Mom to Wife Plus Life who shares her journey of motherhood, and wifehood. Jennifer is the mother of a little girl, a wife for the second time, and a caregiver to her Navy veteran husband. Listed as top 50 mom podcasters in Podcast Magazine in May 2020, a current 2020 Elizabeth Dole Fellow for the state of Arkansas, and now a Mom Empowerment Coach. "I want to be a woman who sheds the light on women and moms going through different seasons of life and making the normal struggles we all go through normal and not something to be ashamed or embarrassed about. AKA hot mess momma life. I'm also a big supporter of childhood ADHD, domestic violence survivors, and caregivers for veterans."_________________________________Like what you heard?

Some of us were in church faithfully, every week while others...not so much.

How are you approaching religion with your family? Did you have this conversation with your partner before you had children of your own? How they would be brought up. If they would attend church. Which religion they would practice.

We can't speak for everyone but studies have shown that millennials are less attached to organized religion than their parents and grandparents were. Do you agree?

It's also more common to hear that millennials are "spiritual" vs, "religious".  Today we're talking about our experiences of conversion, spirituality, and the decisions we've made for our families.

Think about this, research shows that in our mid-twenties, friendship circles shrink significantly because our priorities shift. Some women are getting married and starting their family, while others are enjoying the single life or focused on their career.

Additionally, women put a lot of weight on their friendships with other women. A friends circle is supposed to be a safe and sacred space for women to come together, use their voices, be heard, and be seen. To share experiences with others who have gone through them. For many decades, women have gathered in circles to empower each other and share wisdom.

So why is that so hard to do now? Why does it seem so difficult for women to support other women? Today, we are discussing all of this with Kiamiccia Boone-Neal of Mommy Chronicles LLC and chatting about how we as women can better support one another.

Kiamiccia (Mece) is a 28-year-old wife, mother of two, and entrepreneur. She lives in California and loves it! In 2020 she started a mom blog which turned into creating and selling mom apparel from her business, Mommy Chronicles LLC, interviewing other moms on IGTV live about important mom-related topics, to now having a podcast called "The Mom Circle." Her overall goal is to connect, support, and uplift other moms, moms-to-be, and future moms.

Have you ever considered that some women may choose to be INTENTIONALLY SINGLE?

They don't want to be with anyone else.

They enjoy not dealing with the drama that comes along with dating.

They want to focus on themself.

They want to heal from past traumas and grow.

There are tons of reasons why someone may choose to be alone. Today, we are joined by Isabella Boateng, and while she has chosen to be single and essentially alone...she is not lonely.

Today, we are joined by Isabella Boateng, and while she has chosen to be single and essentially alone...she is not lonely. _________________________________Like what you heard?

While things may have slightly improved since that time, racism is still very much alive. 

As a result, we have to take additional precautions to make sure that we and our families are safe when we travel. And that's not just in the United States, but internationally as well. 

Today, we are talking about our experiences of traveling as women of color, as well as planning to travel to other countries. People often overlook researching the customs and cultures of the countries that they are traveling to, but learning a few words in their native language could go a long way.

Can you say anxiety overload?! We get it.

Cherrelle believes in hyping individuals up into becoming their best selves by speaking life and positivity into their situations as an empowerment life coach. She is a 2-time grad from THEE Virginia State University and kept it in the HBCU family by marrying an NCAT Aggie. Cherrelle and her husband, Evan have been together for 10 years and will celebrate their 5 year wedding anniversary in the fall. A life coach who believes in transparency and honesty is the foundation of any relationship, Cherrelle is your future Personal Hype (Wo)man for encouragement and support with your everyday struggles. She does this because she loves for individuals to feel empowered and educated with the tools to become successful at managing their everyday obstacles.

Made fun of because you are "too light" or "too dark"?   "Skin color matters because we are a visual species and we respond to one another based on the way we physically present. In today's society, skin color has become a loaded signifier of identity and value".

In today's episode, we're talking about Colorism. What is Colorism? Colorism is prejudice or discrimination against individuals based on their skin tone, usually from the same ethnic or racial group. In a country deeply rooted in racism, dark skin is demonized and white skin is praised. Though super common in the black community, colorism is also rampant in Latin America, East, and Southeast Asia, the Caribbean, and Africa. 

Unfortunately, colorism is prominent in the black, Asian, and Hispanic communities.

There have been so many "Team Light Skinned" vs. "Team Dark Skinned" rivalries, but no color or shade of skin is more attractive or deserving than the next.

But have you ever considered that they act out because they do not have the words or reasoning to express how they are feeling? Kids have BIG EMOTIONS and it can be a struggle trying to decipher what is truly going through their minds.

Have you found yourself getting frustrated with your children because they don't listen to you? Have you gotten so frustrated that you've YELLED at them? Do you feel guilty afterward, but it's all you know?  Unfortunately, many of us grew up in homes full of yelling and screaming. It was the norm at the time. As a result, we've become yelling parents. It's generational.

In today's episode, we're talking with special guest Amanda Rueter, a trained Mental Health Therapist turned Parenting Coach about positive parenting. As a Mom and recovering yeller herself, Amanda knows what it's like to lose it on your kids. With over 18 years of experience working with children and families and her insights, tools, and gentle guidance, Amanda has been able to help thousands of parents around the world stop the yelling and create amazing relationships with their kids. Amanda is a nomadic military wife and Mom to two boys (11 and 8yrs).

There used to come a time that if you had children, you had to give up your career and stay at home and raise your family.  But today, we think that ambition and motherhood go hand in hand. We are driven to provide amazing futures for our children. Some may have great respect for a woman who knows what she wants and goes after it, while it may be perceived negatively by others...especially men. 

Today, we're joined by Jon'll Boyd of The Eventful Life and discussing how ambitious and assertive women are perceived in society. We take a deep dive into these thoughts and discuss how we as women, can redefine how we are seen by others.

Jon’ll Boyd is a mom and an entrepreneur; but has been most affectionately coined "The Mompreneur" because she started and has owned a business for almost as long as her two boys, Alexander and Jackson, have been on this earth. Her greatest triumphs and trials have come from both. She is a builder at heart which is why she started building her first business Completely Yours Events & Design almost 10 years ago after being downsized from corporate America from a career in Sales and Marketing.

She has always been a fierce advocate for helping women build their business and build a community which she originally started with The Planners Suite where she assisted event planners with building their business. She saw the need was much greater and wanted to reach more women who may be struggling with business, mommyhood, or just themselves and that is where The Eventful Life Enterprises was born.

Most of us have heard the theory that the order in which you are born, impacts your personality as a child and well into adulthood. While this may not hold true for everyone, studies have shown that it's true in most cases.  

So of course, today, we are talking all about birth order traits! We are diving into how being the first, middle, youngest, or only child influences your behavior and how parents treat each child differently. And if you want some bragging rights - Oprah Winfrey is a famous first-born; Martin Luther King, Jr. and Barbara Walters are famous middle children; Prince Harry is a famous youngest child; and our very own Sasha (as well as Al Pacino, Alicia Keys, and Chelsea Clinton) are famous only children.

What is your health made up of? Goals on your Fitbit? Eliminating carbs from your diet? Good test results from the doctor? While being in good physical condition may come to mind when thinking about healthy living and wellness, it’s only a small part of the picture.

In today's episode, we're discussing managing wellness while mothering.  Dr. Lisa N. Folden is a licensed physical therapist, mom-focused lifestyle coach, and the owner of Healthy Phit Physical Therapy and Wellness Consultants in Charlotte, NC.

As a women's health, body positivity & health at every size (HAES) ambassador, Dr. Folden assists women seeking a healthier lifestyle by guiding their wellness choices through organization, planning strategies, and holistic goal setting. Helping busy moms find their healthy is one of Dr. Lisa's top priorities.

A self-proclaimed #PhitMom of three children, wife of 13+ years, and a published author and speaker, Dr. Folden understands the complex needs of the modern busy woman.

Did you know that in the last 20 years, the number of women-owned businesses has increased by 114%?! And the number of businesses owned by women of color has grown over 163% in the last 45 years, women in business statistics estimate.

With all of the struggles that we have to endure as women, it's amazing to see so many women showing up and making money for themselves, employing members of the community, and taking care of their families. We no longer have to choose between having a family or a career.

⁠
In this episode, we have special guest husbands Brandon (Shara's husband) and Rajesh who was on a Season 1 episode with his wife. We're getting their opinions on why it takes so long for men to decide on marriage, how they really feel about "classy, bougie, and ratchet" women, and if marriage is what they thought it'd be.

Of course, we both love wine so we were ecstatic when we got the chance to talk to our special guest this week - Anna Savino.

Anna is originally from Napa, California but has lived in the Piedmont region of Italy since 2005. Her love for the region—and especially the wines of Barolo & Barbaresco—has led to a career in food and wine guiding with her companies Italianna Tours and Barolo Wine Club. She specializes in organizing small group tours and always seeks out the most personal and unique gastronomic experiences for visitors in the Langhe.

We talked to Anna about what it's like owning a tour business during a global pandemic and the difference in raising children in Italy.

In this episode, we're joined by a very special guest, Aleeka, The Safe Space Curator and diving into why girls do not talk to their moms, and how mothers can create safe spaces to have conversations with their daughters. ⁠

Aleeka Moody aka Ms. Aleeka began her work with children about 10 years ago, as a Program Aide with the Boys and Girls Club. From there, she went on to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Family and Consumer Sciences from Winthrop University. While at Winthrop, Aleeka discovered her love of working with teens through her time program planning for another organization. Upon returning home, to North Agusta South Carolina, Ms. Aleeka felt that she needed to put the skills she gained in college as well as her time working with teens to better use. Thus came Teen Dreams in the fall of 2014. ⁠ ⁠ Ms. Aleeka became a certified youth and family life coach in 2016 and focused her practice solely on teen/tween girls and their moms. Through her practice, Aleeka feels that she can help tween/teen girls find healthy ways to cope with issues that arise in the years that shape their identities. ⁠ ⁠

Unfortunately, there may be a time or two that you have a conflict with a female friend. Some friendships come to an end for one reason or another while others are meant to stand the test of time. 

In this episode, we're chatting with the last member of our #WineNight Crew, Alisa of Cosmo Crush about how we fix conflicts among friends. You've heard Shara and Sasha mention Lisa as their go-to hair stylist, but Lisa is also a super close friend to both ladies. Lisa has been a licensed cosmetologist for a little over eight years with a little over 15 years of experience to the industry. Out of all of us, Lisa is the go-to for checking us and the first to have our backs!

]]> Wed, 16 Dec 2020 07:00:00 +0000 swillis0520@gmail.com (Sasha & Shara) http://swirlandsippodcast.com It's been said that maintaining friendships with other women can be quite difficult. Unfortunately, there may be a time or two that you have a conflict with a female friend. Some friendships come to an end for one reason or another while others are meant to stand the test of time. 

In this episode, we're chatting with the last member of our #WineNight Crew, Alisa of Cosmo Crush about how we fix conflicts among friends. You've heard Shara and Sasha mention Lisa as their go-to hair stylist, but Lisa is also a super close friend to both ladies. Lisa has been a licensed cosmetologist for a little over eight years with a little over 15 years of experience to the industry. Out of all of us, Lisa is the go-to for checking us and the first to have our backs!

Don't be afraid to "label" your child as special needs. That "label" can get you access to the support and resources that you both need. ⁠

In this episode, we're talking with Kacey Dangerfield, aka Kay Alex, who is transparent about her journey with her autistic son, Zander. Kacey gives us great insight into why it's important to get an early diagnosis if you think your child may be special needs and why more Black and brown moms need to open up about the reality of having a special needs child.

Kacey is a mom, wife, podcaster and experience curator who seeks to provide out -of-the-box events and designs that cater to the creative Millennial family. Her most notable events include Dads Can Doo it Too, and The Hunt, an Easter Egg Hunt like no other! By day, she's a Speech-Language Pathologist who currently serves the birth-3-year-old population. Mom of three, and wife to her college sweetheart, Kacey shares the filtered and unfiltered experiences of her family via her Instagram page @_kayalex_. While her world revolves around her family, Kacey knows the importance of self-care as she lives by the quote, "my cup has to be full in order for me to be able to pour into others."

A lot of the times we may feel bad for taking time for ourselves but in reality, if we don't we can't be our best selves. In this episode, we're talking with guest Treanna Neufville of @Modernday_MakeupMommy about self-care and making yourself a priority. ⁠Treanna believes that when we invest in ourselves and show up for ourselves it makes us better in all facets of our lives.

And many of us walk into marriage with expectations that frankly, won't be met. When expectations don't meet reality, we can find ourselves wanting out.

In this episode we're talking resetting our marriage expectations with Leasha Ogle, founder of This Thing Called Wife. Leasha is sharing the lessons she's learned after changing her outlook on her own marriage and giving us tools to navigate being a wife!

We're talking all about cursing - should women (and especially moms) do it? Some people think it is unbecoming of a woman to throw out a f-bomb every now and then. What about the thought that only uneducated people curse (because they don't know other words). With two master degrees over here, we know that's not true! Is cursing only a "privilege" for men or women without kids?⁠ In this episode we're discussing our thoughts and experiences with being cursing women and moms...who really don't give a f*ck if you curse too!

The most unprotected person in America is the black woman. The most neglected person in America is the Black woman." -Malcolm X

We're kicking off Season 2 with this brown and black girl magic! In this episode we're talking all about how being a woman with black or brown skin is work! While we've certainly made some progress, we still have so far to go. Women of color on average receive the lowest wages, hold the worst jobs, and are more likely to be unemployed. We deal with racism, classism, AND sexism but we're not letting it get us down. The world will see this magic!

Her and her hubby have several travel groups including One Dope Weekend and the Women of Waunderlust with the goal of helping people see the world (with or without their spouse in tow).

There is no way to know exactly what to do in every parenting situation. Unfortunately, there isn't a parenting manual. ⁠In this episode, we're discussing the "baby blues", postpartum depression, and all the feelings that contribute to that feeling of "mom guilt". Motherhood is hard! It’s not always glitz and glam. Don't feel guilty for having a bad day or week.⁠Episode Resources: CDC - Depression Among Women - https://www.cdc.gov/reproductivehealth/depression/index.htm  7 Ways to Deal With Mom Guilt - https://www.whattoexpect.com/family/7-ways-to-deal-with-mom-guilt  Postpartum Depression Statistics - https://www.postpartumdepression.org/resources/statistics/   ______________________________________________________ Like what you heard?

Pinterest has taken over as the #1 place to create vision boards of what we want our lives to look like. When it's time to have kids, we moms pin everything from cute meals to extravagant learning activities. But are Pinterest moms real? Does anyone live up to their Pinterest hopes and dreams?
 
In this episode, we're discussing what  our own vision boards of motherhood looked like and where we fall short. If this pandemic has taught us anything, it's definitely that finding the time and patience to create Pinterest-worthy fun is so much more challenging than those pins would have you believe.

We've all heard what they say - money is the #1 cause of divorce. In the U.S. most folks aren’t taught how to deal with their finances. There’s no “Money 101” course in high school or college. Often, we’re left to piece together what we saw our parents do and throw in some things we may have learned along the way.
 
In this episode, we're talking all about our money mindsets and how we came to learn about handling our coins. In our own marriages, we handle the money a little differently but we've found a system that works for us and we're perfecting it everyday.

]]> Retreat, Refresh, and Reset Sasha & Shara 00:49:10 The ladies of Swirl & Sip definitely love to see the world. Between the two of us we've been to several countries and two continents (besides the U.S). Traveling is not only a great way to experience new cultures and places but is an amazing way to bring back that spark that you may have forgotten about in your relationship. In this episode, we're talking all about how travel can save marriages and your sanity with our guests Brianna - one half of Waunderlust Travel. Her and her hubby have several travel groups including One Dope Weekend and the Women of Waunderlust with the goal of helping people see the world (with or without their spouse in tow).  Links from this Episode:Travel Bucket List Printable - https://creationsbysasha.com/shop/travel-bucket-list-printable/One Dope Weekend - https://www.onedopeweekend.com/ One Dope Weekend Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/onedopeweekend/Wanderlust Travel & Vacations - https://www.facebook.com/groups/WanderlustVacations/________________________________________________________ Like what you heard?

The hashtag exists because positive examples of successful Black relationships need to be seen since the media doesn't always portray what many couples are experiencing. But when only 1/2 of that couple is black, do you still fall into that #blacklove space? 

In this episode, we have our first guests Ashleigh and Rajesh on to what it means to be in an interracial relationship and how that affects everything from how others see us and how we plan on raising our kids. And get ready for the new hashtag - #brownlove!
