For the fourth year in a row, Therapy For Black Girls invites you to join us in celebrating Sex Positive September, a month in which we center the importance of Black women’s pleasure, agency, and sexual liberation. And there's no better way to kick off this month’s programming than with a conversation with returning guest Dr. Janelle Frederick, also known as the Vagina Rehab Doctor. Dr. Janelle is a pelvic floor physical therapist who uses social media to produce shame-free, entertaining, and high-quality sex education.

In our conversation, we discussed some of the overlooked contributors to sexual pleasure, the ways in which anxiety and depression can impact a person’s ability to have pleasurable sex, and what we wish our parents would have taught us about sex.

About the Podcast

Athletes like Angel Reese & Sha’Carri Richardson have so brilliantly led women’s sports into the national spotlight, but with this has come lots of negative attention and straight-up negligent media coverage of these athletes and their sports. I wanted to hear from Black Women Sports journalists both in front of and behind the camera to explore what’s needed to correct some of these biased narratives.

Joining me for this Black women in sports media roundtable are supervising producer Jasmine Ellis, and Emmy-award winning journalist Jemele Hill. Jasmine has worked on shows such as Sue Bird & Megan Rapinoe's "A Touch More,” Speak.Easy for CNN+, and ESPNS’s SC6. And Jemele, making her return to the TBG Podcast, is a contributing writer for The Atlantic where she covers the intersection between sports, race, politics, gender and culture. During our conversation, we discussed the barriers that exist for Black women to enter the sports media space, the importance of cultural competency when covering women’s sports, and why we can’t just “stick to sports” when talking about female athletes.

Summer, is that you? Sure, it’s August, but we have a few more weeks to enjoy this weather, so let’s celebrate accordingly.

Welcome to the TBG University podcast, tailored for the 20-something who’s still obsessing over the finale of Love Island, replaying the hottest song of the summer, getting her tote bag packed for the first day of classes, and everything in between. Here at TBG, we believe in the healing power of sisterhood, and one of our favorite parts of female friendship is getting to sit down and kiki about everything that’s going on in our lives at the moment. So in this special girl chat episode, Jayna Ellis, TBG Coordinator and the Associate Producer of the TBG Podcast, Zariah Taylor, took some time to reflect on our summers.

In our girl chat today, we explore the pressure to have a “productive” summer, dive in to some recent pop culture, and share some advice for both the people going back to school and the post-graduate whose feeling unsure about their new normal.
