Is it constructive criticism, or just plain judgment? In this episode of In the Bloom of It All, we unpack the fine line between feedback that helps us grow and words that can tear us down. From our own mother–daughter dynamic to friendships, workplaces, and even faith communities, we explore how to tell the difference—and how to respond with grace.

If you’ve ever struggled with receiving (or giving) feedback, this conversation will resonate with you.

We’re not just talking—we’re blooming together. Whether you’re a mother, daughter, or simply on a journey of self-discovery, there’s room for you here.

Join us as we explore:

✨ How faith shapes our journey.

✨ Building healthy relationships that last.

✨ Breaking free from generational trauma.

✨ Celebrating the beauty and strength of Black womanhood.
