Start warming up - this episode explores so why it's SO freaking hard to change our mind, and you need to be READY to hear this message. Somewhere along the way we started making changing our mind synonymous with failure and we have GOT to stop. In episode 10 Tanya talks about how seeing beauty in her natural hair validated  the power of representation! How her own daughter's desire for a certain style of hair taught her that speaking up when we've changed our minds is one of THE MOST IMPORTANT lessons we can give to and receive from our children. "As women, how many times do we go through with something we don't want for ourselves JUST because we're too uncomfortable to say we changed our mind!?"Join the Shine On Mama Podcast Listener CommunityHit me up on instagram!@tanyamalcolmBrad Mondo brings me so much joy!
