This time the Corbin sisters delve into what it means to be a BOSS. Cherisse shares her experiences woking in the TV industry for the last 20 years and Cecilia talks about being a boss who is just starting out. Cherisse is open about the difficult times, including her horiffying “Me Too” moment and angry crying in front of a cast member. As a senior in college, Cecilia talks about being “yanked up” into leadership roles from a very young age, and what it’s like leading her peers. Both sisters discuss the ups and downs of being a female boss, how lonely boss life can be, how being a venerable and humble leader is powerful, and a many more hard earned bits of wisdom they’ve learned along this WILD RIDE of being a #BOSS.

Cherisse and Cecilia ignore their fear of venerability and put it all out there as they discuss deeply personal stories of life changing LOSS. For the first time ever, Cherisse talks publicly about finding herself homeless at age 38. Cecilia shares about having to leave the only home she had ever known, the country of her birth, at age 13. Both of these life altering circumstances shaped the trajectory of their futures. Learn what happened, how they survived and what invaluable truths they learned along this wild adventure of LOSS. #ladiesinthewild #focusup

Cherisse and Cecilia talk about what it’s like to be single at ages 42 and 21. Listen as Cherisse describes her surprising dating journey, how other people are shocked that she has never been engaged or married and has no children in her 40’s and how she finds incredible joy in her singleness at this age. Also, listen as Cecilia explains how she’s choosing to be single at 21, how people think that’s a weird choice at her age, what’s she’s learned from dating up to this point and how she believes that being single is vital to her personal growth right now. You may ask, “How can you be single and truly happy?!” Listen to what the Ladies in the Wild have to say! You might be able to relate to what we say, you might not, but regardless we think you’ll be encouraged and hopefully have fun on this ‘Wild Ride’ we call being SINGLE. #ladiesinthewild #focusup

Cherisse talks about how she got started in the TV biz , what It’s like to work in reality TV in Hollywood and how she navigates being a “Believer” in this career. She also talks about what Christians think about her working in Hollywood and what people in the entertainment industry think about her being a person of faith. Cecilia also talks about her journey living in a religiously conservative area of the country, coming to a place where her faith was her own choice and how we can practice our faith differently but still believe in the same God. Cherisse is nervous to put herself out there with this very personal and raw take on her journey, but she wants to share her perspective to perhaps make people think differently about those that don't share their beliefs. Let’s just say this one is a WILD RIDE because after all this is, “Ladies in the Wild”!

We are talking about all things adoption from our unique and VERY unusual perspectives. Mom and dad were in their late 40’s, Cherisse was 21 and a senior in college and along came baby Cecilia! Hear what it’s like for us having a 21 year age gap, what it’s like for Cecilia having older parents, being a multi-ethnic family, how Cecilia feels about her birth mother and if she ever wants to meet her and why our adoption story has been a success. Come along with us, it’s gonna be a wild ride! #ladiesinthewild #adoption #sistersofadifferentcolor #agegaps

Cecilia shares her incredibly unique perspective on racism from the leans of being South African by birth, adopted by a white family, growing up in both South Africa and America and currently living in an area where SHE is the diversity. Listen as Cecilia discusses being brown in Branson, MO, dating in a mostly white area, going home to South Africa with an American accent and what she feels we can do to combat racism. And listen as Cherisse asks questions and chimes in because that’s what older sisters do! #ladiesinthewild

“Ladies in the Wild” is one conversation with two completely different lenses. We are Cherisse and Cecilia Corbin, two sisters with a 21 year age gap. One of us is in college studying to be a psychologist and the other has worked in television for 20 years. One of us is brown and one is white. We’ve lived in South Africa, LA, IL and MO. We have a strong faith in God and see life as a total adventure. These 2 decades cause us to have some pretty different ideas about life. So, we decided to sit down and talk about the ways those 21 years shape our perspectives, feelings, and responses to the world around us. One conversation, two lenses because life is a WILD ride. Welcome to “Ladies in the Wild”!
