We broke down a xoNecole article where 10 men shared what makes a woman \u201cwife\u201d vs. \u201cgirlfriend\u201d material and whew, some of these takes had me raising eyebrows and clenching my pearls. From emotional maturity to splitting bills to being \u201creferred\u201d like a LinkedIn job post, we had plenty to say. Spoiler alert: Dex absolutely flunked the wifey quiz. \ud83d\ude02 Then we had to pivot to check in with my mommas, because back-to-school season is no joke. We discussed another article that reminded me how vital it is for Black women to prioritize ourselves especially when we\u2019re constantly expected to carry everyone else. Trusting others, knowing your limits, setting boundaries, and redefining self-care as non-negotiable? We\u2019re leaning into all of that. This episode is part therapy, part side-eye, and 100% necessary. &amp;nbsp; CONNECT WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: CARLA WILMARIS | DEX \ud83d\udcf1INSTAGRAM: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thesowhatnowpodcast\/ \ud83d\udcf1TIKTOK:  https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@thesowhatnowpod ","author_name":"So What Now? with Carla and Dex","author_url":"https:\/\/www.sowhatnowpod.com\/","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/37778500\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/item\/37778500"}
