In this episode of Lean the F*ck Out, we talk with Mar Yvette, an LA-based lifestyle writer, editor, on-air host and founder of the online platform Homegirl Talk. Mar talks about the platform she built and the importance of creating a space for women of all walks of life to keep it real and share stories, struggles and successes.
Homegirl Talk Episode Highlights:
On celebrating your own culture.
- The struggle with internalized racism that often leads to shame, even within one’s own culture.
- The importance of accepting, embracing and celebrating your culture.
- For Mar, confidence came with worldly experiences, education, stronger work experiences, etc.
What Mar has learned from doing Homegirl Talk
- We have to be the light and share each other’s stories.
- Women need a space to keep it real.
- Our power is finding that we are all more similar than different.
- It’s been surprising how women have been willing to open up.
Mar’s advice to women thinking about leaning out and doing their own thing:
- Be fearless - just do it
- Being fearless doesn’t mean without fear, it means moving through the fear!
- Might be the first step in making your dreams come true
