About this episode
The Mamas recorded live from the Black Love Summit in Los Angeles, jumping into a candid conversation about the importance of building communities where you can be seen and heard, especially during the journey of motherhood. From Melanie entering the music business without any pre-existing relationships, to Felicia and Ashley being the first of their friends to have babies, and Codie desire to explore Black love, the four of them discuss pressing past fear and anxiety to create what they seek.
