Tosh Phoenix
my name is Tosh. and i am a 20-year-old Black womxn in college trying to figure out my twenty-somethings. i am hoping to cultivate a virtual safe space for other Black womxn and femme. i am hoping to make us feel seen. comforted. and validated in a world where we are constantly dismissed and put last. i will have conversations ranging from my undergraduate experience as a pre-med student, to mental health, and to the things that keep me up late at night. it's gonna be a fun time. and a good time.

in this week's episode, i share the results of my personality type test, i talk more about about how i like to receive and give love, and more about the implications of my attachment style. while i think one should take these tests with a pinch of salt, i do believe that they help lay the foundation for who we are at the core. things just start to make more sense, if you know what i mean. hope you enjoy! oh and engage with my other handles; i also made a Good Reads account :p: Youtube: Tosheania Phoenix Good Reads: Tosh Phoenix Instagram: Tosheaniaa Twitter: Tosheania TikTok: Tosheaniap

005: religion and spirituality @ 20
in this week's episode, i have a conversation about my religious and spiritual experiences and perspectives. i primarily grew up a Christian-based household, where the religious practices were quite toxic. i talk about the ways that my Christian upbringing traumatized me and elicited fear and anxiety within me. i spend the second half of the podcast talking about where my religious and spiritual beliefs currently are and the ways that i have grown (and am still growing) since childhood.  thank you for supporting my podcast! please do engage with my other handles: youtube: tosheania phoenix instagram: tosheaniaa twitter: tosheania tiktok: tosheaniap
