What's up, y'all. My name is Mimi Walker, and I am the resident Auntie Supreme over at Handing My Purse
the podcast. Now, if you're not familiar with Handing My Purse, it's a podcast that takes a deep dive into the nuances of black culture, whether we're talking about social emotional wellbeing, the culture itself and its significance in our community as well as the global community, mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual health, as well as all of the many life experiences that we are faced with every single day of our black lives.
You know, it's funny to me that there is an unspoken understanding that black aunties are truly the backbone of our communities and of their families. And Auntie doesn't necessarily have to be your mom or your dad's sister or even a blood relative at all. Really, and Auntie is anyone close to you or your family that can offer you a space where there's safety, security, guidance and supreme
wisdom that oftentimes other family members just can't provide. That's my answer to everything you need a Black Auntie that because Black aunties are the bomb of Gilead, Black aunties heal everything to the best of their ability, and what they can't heal, they're going to offer you the resources to figure it out, or they're gonna take you to
where you can go get healed. Okay, The concept of you handing your auntie her purse serves as a catalyst for action, and it can change the atmosphere, can change the whole energy in the room. And you know that when your auntie digs in that purse and pulls out whatever she's about to pull out, that she is about to bless your life in some way. With this show, I vow to be a comforting, funny, sometimes inappropriate, but
always authentic voice. I want us to seek out and create the safe spaces for one another so that we can begin to get comfortable having uncomfortable conversations in our commies. And that's pretty much what this show is. It's a conversation with your favorite auntie and that's me, Me, Me Auntie Memi. And as you listen, I want you to talk back to me. Now, of course I won't hear you what in the world is that? But it's really
the thought that counts. Right. Also, why to stop? So if you are old enough to have been in love with new edition in the early eighties, but still young enough to have a playlist on Apple Music that's filled with trap music, then this is a show for you. And even if you don't really identify with any of those things, listen anyway. I'm sure you're gonna find something that you can relate to, so be sure to tune in to Hand Me My Purse. New episodes are released
every Tuesday. But before you hit play, run and go, grab yourself your favorite bevers to sip on, get real comfortable, and just get ready to have a good time. It's absolutely everything you never ever knew you needed in a podcast.
