What does it mean to exist at the intersection of race, gender, and culture while still be expected to remain quiet?In this episode of Miss Opinionated, we hold an honest and necessary conversation about the lived experiences of women of color. Joined by a Latina woman from Panama and a Black woman from Louisiana, and grounded in my own experience as a mixed-race woman; Black, Mexican, and Indigenous American. We explore how women of color are consistently silenced, overlooked, and used as testing grounds in medical, social, and academic spaces.We discuss colorism and texturism within our communities, the personal and generational impact they carry, and the emotional toll of being extraordinary yet rarely recognized. From overlooked inventions to uncredited labor, this episode reflects on how women of color continue to shape the world while being denied the visibility and praise given to their white counterparts.This conversation is reflective, critical, and rooted in truth centering lived experience, cultural memory, and the power of naming what has long been ignored.Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/giulio-fazio/flamingo-dance-in-loveLicense code: VACIYA6LRUPB4N0X

Why I’m Opinionated (and Why That Matters)In the first episode of Miss Opinionated, I introduce the intention behind this podcast and what it truly means to be “opinionated.” This episode explores the difference between having strong perspectives and being closed-minded, and why forming your own opinions is an act of self-trust, growth, and awareness.We talk about cultural conditioning, the pressure to stay silent or agreeable, and how evolving beliefs are not a flaw, but a sign of growth. Through personal reflection, cultural insight, and honest conversation, this episode invites listeners to question what they’ve been taught and reconnect with their own voice.In this episode, we explore:- Why being opinionated is not a negative trait- Cultural expectations around silence and conformity- The freedom in changing your mind as you grow- Trusting your inner voice and lived experienceThis podcast is not here to tell you what to think, it’s here to remind you that you’re allowed to think for yourself.New episodes of Miss Opinionated available every Thursday on YouTube and podcast platforms.Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/giulio-fazio/flamingo-dance-in-loveLicense code: VACIYA6LRUPB4N0X

Many spiritualists will give you a million do's and don'ts when it comes to spirituality. Spirituality is an individual journey, regardless of people sharing the same spiritual gifts; everyone's experiences will be different.

Last episode we discussed how to pray, now what? You prayed but now things aren't going the way you thought, did spirit hear me? When we pray will be put in situations that may seem like spirit didn't hear, but those situations are for development, etc.
