Ladies Doing Stuff Podcast

We’ve often heard that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but is that still true if I wear a natural hairstyle in corporate America? For a black woman, a hairstyle can mean the difference between getting noticed, intimidating the masses, or being ignored altogether. Forget beauty and hair care tips, this episode digs deep into what lies beneath Black hair. How we wear our hair can both alleviate (or drive) our insecurities and make a statement about who we chose to be on a given day. This episode the ladies discuss how black hair and standards of beauty can impact social interactions, our confidence, and our relationships.

How many truth bombs can we drop in one episode? We lost count. Listen to the ladies on Single AF Podcast! Host Nick Chilkov reminds Charlie and Aamber what it’s like to date in 2018, a time when finding a date IRL -In Real Life- is a thing of the past (and apparently a well-known abbreviation). The Ladies are forced to rethink dating protocol and first impressions when they discuss Nick’s Tinder date showing up late to a first encounter. Charlie, Aamber, and Nick discuss race, dating, and attraction in relationships when Nick reveals that he’s not very attracted to Black women. Lastly the ladies take on TLC's age-old question, "What about Your Friends?" when Charlie gives us the rundown on what it’s like when your introvert, Caucasian boyfriend meets your “not so shy” Black friends for the first time.

Okay America, give us a break! One minute we’re “independent women” and the next we’re “damsels in distress?” Pick one! It’s no secret, there are some serious drawbacks when it comes to being a lady in Los Angeles. How often are we expected to be seen, sometimes touched, but not heard? Being “twice as good to get half,” isn’t just a line from a TV show, it’s the story of our lives. Charlie tells us what to do when that male cashier gets a little too handsy at the corner store. The ladies explore the advantages of being underestimated when Aamber shows us how to get free coffee with a smile. Nothing is off limits when the ladies discuss their thoughts and experiences with equality… or inequality… depending on the situation. It’s complicated. Just listen, okay? We’ll explain later!

We all want loyalty, but does it even exist anymore? This episode we invite fellow podcaster and newest BFF Derek Lane from “Last Word Podcast” to discuss where loyalty lies and where lies begin.

It’s hard to say if we’re easy to please, but let’s be honest... Will Ladies in LA ever be satisfied? Charlie and Aamber discuss their ‘perfectly reasonable, not at all unrealistic’ expectations of themselves and their ‘bare minimum, perfectly achievable’ expectations of others. Spoiler Alert*** We're completely satisfied...with everything.

“Whoever said your 20's are your easiest years is a f**king liar.” The Ladies are kicking off season 2 with an unfiltered look into self-worth and self-love. Listen as Charlie and Aamber discuss their impulsive career decisions, Inception-like nightmares, and the importance of knowing when (and how) to stand up for your worth.

While we have a lot to be grateful for, that’s not stopping us from ragging on this past year. From Aamber’s newfound IDGAF attitude to Charlie’s sage and crystal obsession, we discuss our 2017 wins and losses, and almost-attainable goals for 2018.
