Fashion is intertwined with our culture and embedded in our identities. What we wear is how we're perceived. What does your wardrobe say about you, sis? We sat down with fashion designer Tyler Hall to discuss her journey to launching TYLER AND HALL, a contemporary womenswear brand intuitively and sustainably designed to embody the essence of feminine energy and the beauty in masculine energy.
POV: A modern woman who listened to her body and chose herself.

When you get the call, will you pick up? Let's talk about the sunshine and setbacks that come with Career Pivots.
Remember sitting in between a black woman's legs, butt nearly numb, neck about to break, tears potentially flowing..all for the hairstyle that you saw in a magazine or on the TV? We do. Hair is more than "just hair", and we'll do whatever it takes to achieve that "look" we're hoping for. From the Natural Hair Movement to our First Perms; the Bag Ladies discussed how our hair is deeply embedded in our self-identity, culture and development as women. Join us as we reminisce on the styles we've tried, and the lessons we learned.

Did somebody say #CrossOver episode!? We had some host on host action in the latest episode of the Bag Behavior Podcast and the conversation took a deep turn into colorism and self-love. Has anyone ever asked you an offensive question about your ethnic background? Or treated you differently based on your looks? Cadienne and Jasmine have both experienced this in very different ways. These are the sensitive topics that we want to have more conversations around. There's room for all of us to grow. But first, let's get to know the hosts!
A New York creative thru and thru! SIRA's mindset is what makes her art limitless.

We're inspired by the seeds that SIRA has planted, and what she has been watering since. Check out more of her work here: siraworld.com/art

That's exactly what you'll find out on this episode.
Full-Time Creative Tauri Janee sits down with Cadienne to break-down how she keeps-up with social media. Her first viral video may have been blurry but the internet was not worried! When the vibes are right, the quality takes a back seat to the energy. Tauri's got that special something, that attracts people to her on and offline. Is it her captions, her dancing, or the two-headed split screens? Whichever it is, it's entertaining, and she lets us in to that world right here on the Bag Behavior podcast.
