Hand Me My Purse provides a comprehensive approach to understanding and tackling social emotional well-being, cultural matters, mental health, and everyday life experiences in the Black community.

In her purse she has everything you need to approach these experiences from a transparent, relatable, authentic, and funny perspective. The concept of handing your Auntie her purse is a catalyst for action and changes the atmosphere; she is about to BLESS YOUR LIFE in some way. Black Aunties are the backbone of their communities and their families, providing a place of safety and irrefutable wisdom that many other family members cannot. Listen for a good laugh, relatability, and an understanding of the nuances of Black culture. Auntie MeMe promises to be a comforting, funny, sometimes inappropriate, but always authentic voice creating a space, digitally, that will give you the comfort you miss in real life space and time.
