  • Love Note: You Are Not Defined By A Verdict
    Jul 3 2025

    In this short episode, I’m sending a love letter to you—yes, you—especially if the headlines this week feel like too much to hold. Whether you’ve been reeling from the verdict in the Diddy case or any other moment that reminds us how often survivors like Cassie Ventura are denied justice, I want you to know you are not alone.

    This is your reminder: no news story can define your worth. Save this episode for when you need to be reminded you are worthy, you are whole, and you are never alone.
    Take a few minutes to breathe with me and hear about a few resources you can lean on when your burden feels too heavy to carry alone.

  • Reproductive Justice, Sexual Violence & the Legacy of Black Women’s Resistance
    Jun 26 2025

    In this special bonus episode of The Unwanted Sorority, Dr. Leatra Tate traces the powerful intersection of reproductive justice and the fight to end sexual violence—both rooted in the voices, bodies, and truths of Black women.

    From the haunting legacy of the Mothers of Gynecology, to the groundbreaking bravery of the first survivors to testify before Congress, to the present-day grief surrounding Adriana Smith’s pregnancy, this episode holds space for the pain, the power, and the ongoing struggle for autonomy, dignity, and justice.

    It is a tribute to those who spoke when it was dangerous to speak—and a call to continue telling the truth, even now.
