We catch up on what we've been up to since we last recorded - Babalwa became a Mom to a whole human and Solani discovered the earth-shattering news about her paternity. It's been a year of groundbreaking changes and deep roots being formed around each of our identity. Let's catch up with our hearts wide open as we kick-off the rest of this season of Girls Like Us.

In the second episode, Solani and Babalwa sit down over mimosa's and discuss how we often sacrifice our boundaries in an effort to be loved. It's a conversation that goes into the struggles they've had setting boundaries because they wanted to be "nice" and how they've had to learn to set boundaries to protect their mental health.  Boundaries has become a buzzword in popular culture over the last few years - this is a dissection about what they actually mean, and what happens when black women begin to set boundaries. They also discuss what kinds of relationships do we tend to lack boundaries in and why, and how the "Strong Black Woman" trope actually has a lot of women being boundary-less. Tune in to this conversation and share your thoughts with Solani and Babalwa on Twitter. 

We sat down to have a conversation about unlearning perfectionism, and learning to make our own rules about how we take up space in the world. We're two black girls on a journey of healing. Let's heal together.  Follow us on @babs_nyembezi and @bubblymash.
