Surprise episode! After months of avoidance Tonju comes with a new bag of tea. Giving her take on Will vs. Chris, having PCOS & why dating might not be for her.
Let's just say, I was VERY low on inventory. I was pouring from and eventually had to fill an empty cup. I hope you missed me. I missed you. In my time away I had to admit that I am too transparent about most of my life experiences. Helping me to realize that being transparent can at times attract the doers of the complete opposite. THE LEECHES. I wasn't being careful with myself and eventually burned all my water down to nothing, if you know, you know. You can burn water. I'm here and I'm comin...

For my first guest ever, I decided to have my mom and sister join me. During this episode we laugh and get off topic all episode. Something we always do. This wasn’t scripted at all, just us being us, but knowing you’re there. Let me know what you think of the podcast so far! Your comments help me so much, you have no idea. In addition to that they’re funny as all. To everyone who listens thank you. One day y’all will have the bragging rights to say you listened first. Comment and subscribe! @to...
I used to really love school and then high school happened. When that last day of school hit and I knew I no longer had to sign in to homeroom, I just knew I wouldn’t be dealing with the same foolishness as I had while in school. Real life was beginning and college was going to be euphoric, boy was I wrong. Seems to be I’ve met the same people again and again. It seems the mean girls are still wearing pink on Wednesdays. Let’s talk about it. New episode on Monday! I promise. Let me know what you...
Shame! After another unforeseen break Tonju is back with a recap of her life since the last episode. A little dance talk and joys could not happen without being tried. Asking the question: why are black Americans judged so harshly by other blacks of the Caribbean and Africa? Where’s the love for blacks without foreign accents? Follow @told_ju for sneak peaks of the episode. Follow @tonjuanikchoreography too!
The sad truth is, it’s no ones fault but your own in the game of life right? The people pleasers in the room know what I mean when I say, you teach people how to treat you. If you are always going, always giving, how well are you taking care of yourself? I can tell you from experience you’re not. From my snot nose to what could be yours, I’m telling you why you should slow down on being everyone’s super hero and be your own, first.
This week Tonju is venting. You’ll have to listen to find out why. Was Monique wrong about bonnets and pjs? Who are the Kevin Samuels and Papi Don’s of the world? The audacity chile.
Finishing off last week’s episode, Tonju deepens her outlook on how open perspectives give us better understanding of the people we think we know. She also touches are the roles we play in a persons life regarding their insecurities.
This week Tonju is all over the place! Introducing what insecurity has meant to the her at the tea party.
This week Tonju get’s over here fears and takes center stage, literally. While being challenged, she realizes the meaning behind perfectionism. You guessed it- fear. Listen with your heart this week to see if you too are scared to be successful and using failure as your crutch for fear.
It has been a min. It’s safe to say, I didn’t have a clue what to say. Having all the words and no direction. Let’s start with a memory about words and why I take it all so literally.
In this episode, Tonju shares her perspective on the culture’s definition of not caring. Questioning, if it is helpful or harmful? Reflecting and recognizing the contradiction in not caring and how it relates to the people we show up as.
On the first episode of Tea with T, I am discussing some of my mistakes when it’s come down to love and how an encounter from a former love exposed me! Airing every Monday wherever you stream your podcast. You don’t want to miss it! *disclaimer: my original pilot episode was so silly I trashed it. #podcast #new #love #Tonjuanik #teawithT #talkshow #blackgirlsrock
