Mood AF

Hi there. So, it's been seven months since we've seen each other last. A lot has happened, (when ISN'T something going on). However, this is something that was a little close to home. I'm not sure there's much to say outside of this for now. I'll be back soon. Love you to the depths of the ocean, Nik. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moodaf/support

Hello my lovelies. Welcome back to another episode of Mood AF. Today we get into the real (notice how I didn't say all tea, all shade & all offense - we're getting serious today) .. and I know the conversation is a little uncomfortable - but remember: each show is a different mood, some are good, some are bad, some are funny. But since we're so close to the holidays, I wanted to speak on something that has been so heavy on my heart - Grief. Grief is one of the most paradoxically complex feelings ever. In this episode I get into what my grief looks like, how to show UP for your people who are experiencing grief - most importantly I touch on my time at Experience Camps this past August! (https://experiencecamps.org/)  I want you all to know, no matter when you lost your person or people, no matter how much time has past - I will always be here holding space for you all because I've been there. I LIVE here some days.  Also: Experience Camps is crowdfunding to send kids to camp for free!!! FROM NOW UNTIL 12/31! Help us send some amazing kids to camp next summer!!!  (https://give.experiencecamps.org/campaign/experience-camps-2023-crowdfunding-campaign/c525971?_ga=2.35937440.1816624424.1700636343-1502250240.1689000154) --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moodaf/support

Hey, my babes! In this week’s episode, I’m giving you all tea, all shade & all offense about Cultivating female relationships, especially during your mid to late ’20s. I can’t lie, ladies, we need to be more honest with ourselves and with our friends. We should be more open to hearing our friends out and holding ourselves accountable for specific behaviors. As we get older it’s imperative that we continue to foster our relationships with each other and with ourselves. We should be more honest about the things we want out of our friendships. We should communicate more, we should aspire for more for each other, and definitely be honest when we’re not feeling great and projecting that onto our friends. So I beg, please listen to this with knowing I want growth for each and every single one of us, and I want us all to be better. AND I THROW SHADE AT MYSELF THIS EPISODE TOO. It would be extremely hypocritical if I didn’t. Xo, Nikeita --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/moodaf/support

Hey, my babes! Welcome back to another episode of Mood AF! Today I want to get into All Tea, All Shade & All Offense about something that has been weighing on me for a while. The ugly side of healing and growth within self. As some of you know, and most of you don’t, I have been active in therapy for a little over a year now, and I feel like it’s time to share my experiences, while also giving you all the ugly truth. Especially because social media tends to glorify healing & growth to be ‘flowers and daisies’ and ‘happiness’… when in all reality, it’s not that simple. It’s not that easy. It’s not always happy. It includes being lonely. It includes feeling like you’re lost. It’s about realizing and becoming aware of specific behaviors and setting boundaries which can be really tough sometimes. Some days are a lot harder than others. It’s about realizing sometimes that you’re the toxic person, and that you let people treat you in a way that was less than desirable but knowing you want to change. Knowing that you desire peace and you’re capable of giving it to yourself. It’s about being okay with losing some of the people who you call ‘friends’, family, etc. Also, I’ll be providing some helpful links below if you should want to start your own journey with therapy! Please feel free to reach out to me if you wanna talk about your journey as well! Here at Mood AF, we are a safe space.

Hey, my babes! Figured it’s been a while since we spoke last. Hope you guys have been well with the circumstances. Now that we’re in ‘21 it’s less talk, more action. Consider this a new start. Boom. Hello. My name is Nikeita, creator, and host of Mood AF Podcast. As I like to say ‘Live from the crib’ from wherever that may be for you! Today we’re gonna get into all tea, all shade, and all offense about Millennials and the job market. Basically, I wanted to let you all in on what the reality is for many: It’s a bitch trying to get a job during a pandemic. So I’m here to document it! Also, we know I want you to be your most comfortable with your favorite cocktail/mocktail and or paper of choice

Hey my babes! Welcome back to another episode of Mood AF! In this episode we get into all tea, all shade and all offense about housing in NYC. This episode was mainly inspired by a Tik Tok that really went into depth about what an ACTUAL day in NYC looks like (P.S.: It’s not what you see on Tik Tok). Today you’ll meet Annie, the young lady behind that same video. We discuss what our home lives are like, why it’s imperative that people quit telling native NY’ers to just ‘move’ when we complain about how expensive it is, and of course our disdain for some of these realtors. Check out Annie’s article on Sunset Park residents fearing losing their homes due to gentrification https://anniecabreu.wordpress.com/2020/10/10/sunset-park-residents-feel-like-theyre-losing-their-grasp-on-their-home/ As always, follow us on all our socials: @moodafpodcast (Twitter, Instagram) Watch the visual - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBqedrfCx1EjEJRP49mMPXw Follow Nikeita on all socials as well: @nikeita_ --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/moodaf/support

Hey, my babes! Hope you’ve missed me just as much as I’ve missed you! In this week's episode, we get into all tea, all shade, and all offense into something I can relate to heavily - a strained relationship with a parent, and most importantly .. not forgiving them. This week, you’ll come with me as I take you on a little journey into something that only seldom knows. I’m currently mourning a loss and it’s all for the better - as morbid as that sounds.

Hey, my babes!! In this episode, we gonna catch up (but of course - it’s been a minute) but in today’s episode, we loved on all Black women today. No shade, no tea (unless if you count those few minutes about other people having Black women messed up) and the only offense thrown is at those who don’t protect Black women the way they should. As always, I wanna thank you guys for being such a dope audience and loving me no matter how long it takes for you to hear from me. Just know I’m doing my best through the times, as I hope you all are as well. 2020 has been wicked to some, good to some, but most importantly it’s just taught us all one important thing: REST WHEN NEEDED AND DO WHAT FEELS GOOD TO YOU.

Hey my babes! In today’s episode I wanted to roast myself lmao, and just tell you about some of my shenanigans as a lil late birthday celebration with all of y’all.

Enjoy this as it is lighthearted and carefree. I love y’all. I’ll see y’all soon. #BlackLivesMatter --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/moodaf/support

Hey my babes, I know I’ve been gone for sometime. As we know, miss rona came & destroyed a lot of lives, and left us all f*cked up. Most importantly: As a Black woman I couldn’t sit on this any longer. BLACK LIVES MATTER. PERIOD. So please, understand this was more of a rant & less of an ‘episode’ because there was no tea to spill, no shade to throw, and no offense to be taken. I’ll see y’all soon. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/moodaf/support

Hi, my babes! We're BAAAAAAAAAAAAAACKKKKKKKKKK! I've missed you guys so so so so so much. It's our first episode of Season 2! Today we're getting into ALL TEA, ALL SHADE & ALL OFFENSE about the 'War on Women'. This is something that hits so close to home for me. Not only am I a woman, but I'm also a BLACK woman at that. I wanted to touch on this especially because it's important for me as a woman to stand and live in my truth, and say ENOUGH IS EFUCKINGNOUGH OKAY?! We also have a return guest joining us today! He's known as 'The man behind the mic' aka Mr. Parrish Mitchell (@its_parrish_mitches). Thank you for being patient with me! It's such a blessing to know that you all love me, and the work I create. I truly, from the bottom of my heart love each and every single one of you who supports me.

Hey my babes! Welcome back to another episode of Mood AF. In today’s episode we’re getting into ALL tea, ALL shade and ALL offense about a very sensitive topic: Abortion. What a lot of you actually don’t know, is that I myself had an abortion when I was 20. I was in a space where - looking back on where I was extremely naive to a lot of different things, I was in a pretty fucked up space in my life... but this was a story I needed to tell because me making this decision in turn let me be where I’m at now: Making that decision close to 5 years ago, I felt it was imperative to put myself and my career first as opposed to just having a kid and not fully thinking about everything in the process. NOW THIS IS NOT TO SHAME YOUNG MOMS. I give ya ALL the credit. I just know I couldn’t do it, because I wasn’t ready. I salute ALL of you that do. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/moodaf/support

Hey my babes. This episode is different. This is something I just needed to get off my chest. Something I needed to do to feel like myself again, or at least try to. I’ve missed you all so much, and there’s been a lot going on behind the scenes of the show, my personal life, etc. I just wanted to let you all in, and live in MY truth as I always do with each episode. I wanted you all to know where I was, what I was doing and where we’ve been at with respect to specific situations. I love you all. I’ll be back.

This episode of Mood AF is close to the heart. Ironically enough, this episode was supposed to be what will now be Episode 7, and it was far too late to cancel my session, so I recorded by myself with the help of my brother Parrish (who is producing the show & also managing me... yes you read that correctly).
