Welcome back to Saucy but Sweet with Ali McPherson! We are back for a bonus episode. While the podcast has been on season break our host has had her ear to the pavement, not just as a journalist but a woman who just can't pass away good tea.  Unless you have been living under a rock, you have heard about the whole Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith debacle.  You may remember the episode, “The Other Side of a Slap” from season 3 where the host talked about Will slapping Chris Rock at the Oscars. Well, this week, the host will be discussing Will and Jada once again but this time less about the slap and more about their marriage on the rocks and what her controversial book tour for her book titled “Worthy” exposes about modern marriage at large. The host will be joined by the fabulous Keturah Kendrick for the second time this season. Keturah is a freelancer and author of the book, “No Thanks, Black Female, and Living in the Martyr-Free Zone.” This episode is brought to you by Odette Coronel Coaching.

Welcome back to Saucy but Sweet with Ali McPherson. Happy Valentine's or Galentine's to those who celebrate. This week is quite a treat. Typically the show dives into sex, love, and relationships from the perspective of a 20-something in search of a relationship and possibly marriage and wanting children etc. We talk about the lessons we learn on this messy journey we call out love lives. But what if we shifted the conversation a bit? This time we will be discussing the type of woman that society prefers to push into the corner where the word “selfish'' is used to describe them; these women do not subscribe to the same standards in their dating lives and in this patriarchal society and are shunned for it. These women do not want to necessarily be married, or have children and while some may be in search of a life partner, they refer to themselves as their own primary partners first and foremost. The host will be joined by Keturah Kendrick, a freelance writer and author of the book, “No Thanks, Black Female, and Living in the Martyr-Free Zone.” Keturah's book “No Thanks, Black Female, and Living in the Martyr-Free Zone," is available on Amazon, Barnes and Nobles, and Bookshop.org.

In this episode, we talk to author, educator, and entrepreneur, Keturah Kendrick, as she discusses her new book: No Thanks: Black, Single and Living in The Martyr Free Zone. Keturah takes us on an international journey as she discusses the challenges and joys of traveling and living abroad as a single, black, and childless woman. We dive deep as we discuss how her lifestyle choice was perceived around the world. Her book, No Thanks, chronicles the challenges and reflections of a single Black woman, with no children, and considering the world as her home. The essays, sharp and witty, have brought the issue of singlehood to the forefront in the Black community. The essays also reveal the bewildering ways in which Keturah got tagged by others: in Africa she was a "crazy American woman," in Asia, she was "too much altogether," and in the US, not considered the ideal and "good Black woman." In No Thanks, Keturah emerged as a free woman, living unapologetically, challenging the readers' conceptions of what it means to be enough for oneself and others. She also reveals the rich experiences of women who are single by choice.

Keturah Kendrick is a force of nature, and it is fitting seeing that her hometown is New Orleans, Louisiana! This interview is the continuation of the conversation that Keturah and I had last year on Instagram dealing with the value of representation. This conversation is a reminder that representation is a process, erasure is a choice, and owning all of yourself as a Black woman--walking in an anti-Black world!--is a revolutionary act.  The take away from this conversation, remember:  "Freedom is a moving target."

Interview with Writer and Author of No Thanks: Black, Female, and Living in the Martyr-Free Zone, Keturah Kendrick.  Music: "What's going on? " (Instrumental) by GaBrilla Ballard   

Keturah feels that some women tend to take one for 'the team' or have this noble honor to self sacrifice for the greater good. She realized that this did not serve her. So, Keturah has chosen to say "no thanks" to motherhood and marriage. She unchained herself from what she is supposed to be. Keturah gave herself permission to be whomever she wants. She shares these powerful nuggets of life wisdom: - hear and own voice - choose you - make choices that in your best interest - be honest with yourself - have the courage to say 'no thanks' - traveling abroad gives you more of yourself - human interaction equalizes everyone To call her Keturah Kendrick only opens the door of discovery to this woman who cannot be defined by a name or set of expectations. While she’s a passionate teacher to her students, she’s also an inspiring writer to her readers. She fulfills her life mission as an ambassador of freedom to black women, living and loving life beyond boundaries in order to create peace. A native of New Orleans, Louisiana, Keturah Kendrick’s home is the world. As a child of the south, she grew up receiving persistent and pervasive messages about her limitations as a girl and her deficiencies as an African American. However, the fires of destiny continually kept those poisonous messages at bay. When introduced to inspiring Black women authors, the fire was reignited and she knew her home could not confine her desire to soar. She was meant to be an unmarried Black woman, absent of children, living a joy-filled, fulfilling life as a resident of the world. Since then, she hasn’t looked back! Having lived on three continents, Keturah Kendrick presently lives between Shanghai, China and New York City. She chronicles her life and those of ordinary Black women living extraordinary lives on her cutting-edge podcast, Unchained. Unbothered. Approaching its third season, Unchained. Unbothered. features women from all walks of life who find common ground in their perspectives on 21st century Black womanhood. Episodes feature interviews from an eclectic array of women representing a plethora of diverse lifestyles. While all sharing different experiences, each woman interviewed lays bare her challenges, triumphs, contradictions, pleasures and everything in between. Keturah’s debut book, No Thanks: Black, Female, and Living in the Martyr-Free Zone (She Writes Press: June, 2019), is a collection of essays chronicling her challenges and reflections on living while Black, woman, single and childfree around the globe. On the African continent she was considered “the crazy American woman!” On the Asian continent, she was just “too much altogether!” Even in her American home, she was not quite the epitome of “good Black womanhood.” From page to page, voyage vicariously around the world as Keturah claims her freedom and lives unapologetically in it. Each discovery and rich revelation is sure to challenge your concept of what it means to be enough for yourself and others. Whether teaching, speaking, or simply reaching women with her quick wit and discerning style, Keturah Kendrick represents one of this century’s most significant thought leaders. Overall, her chief aim is to let each person know: “You are enough for you, and you are more than enough for me.” https://www.keturahkendrick.com/  https://www.facebook.com/nothanksbyketurah/  https://www.instagram.com/keturahkendrick/ tags:  Keturah, Kendrick, author, No, Thanks, Black, Female, Living, Martyr, Free, Zone, podcast, host, Unchained, Unbothered, teaching, speaking, leader, storiesthatempower.com, stories that empower, empowering stories, empowerment stories, stories of empowerment, stories of empowering others, self empowerment stories, stories empower, inspire, inspiring, inspiration, uplift, uplifting, upliftment, hope, light, Sean

Keturah Kendrick chats with The Soul Sisters Book Club about "No Thanks: Black, Female, and Living in the Martyr-Free Zone." Based in Tennessee, the group discusses how they identified with Keturah's observations about how marriage is dangled in front of single women like a carrot and the condescension that results when you are a single woman who doesn't really care about that carrot. Several members share their own stories of not desiring marriage and having their words questioned, their values judged. Because of this, the group discusses in depth how often black women, in particular, aren’t believed. Whether it is about their own condition or even their pain, there is a persistent denial that the black woman herself is telling the truth about her existence. The club also asks Keturah questions about being an atheist and probe her for greater detail about living abroad. One member talks about defending her own nonbelief to a stranger in the grocery store and how this, too, is another aspect of black womanhood that is not believed as one’s truth. There is discussion of how many women around the world don’t know their own worth and Keturah shares anecdotes of women she’s met in her travels who succumb to the message that they are either not enough or too much. The women also probe Keturah about the candor in her essays about living in Rwanda and China. From loneliness to western privilege to still having to navigate white foolishness, Keturah goes into greater depth about what the expat life is like for single, black women abroad. Moderated by performance artist, speaker and reader, Dr. Kimberly Chandler, the women discuss the depth of the book's content with laughter and lightness. “I love that this book gives you the sense that whatever you feel in your heart is okay,” a soul sister says. “And the older I get, the more that is me.”

"I actually believe that China is about 15 times more advanced in the usefulness (with social media) than the United States." Keturah Kendrick.  Keturah's online activities changes a lot when she moved to China, but not in ways that you think. Keturah is an intelligent, articulate and delightful person to talk to. I met her at a Podcast Creators meeting in Shanghai, China a few months ago and knew instantly that she needed to be on this podcast for y'all to meet. Her honesty on her online activities pre and post moving to China is really interesting. Keturah is now back in New York City in the U.S. doing her book tour for "No Thanks" and suffering through the adjustments of not using WeChat and the other mobile conveniences in China that she aptly describes in this conversation.  More info: https://www.stephfuccio.com/geopatsonline/keturahkendrick (https://www.stephfuccio.com/geopatsonline/keturahkendrick)

Keturah Kendrick chats with The Sistahs in the Story Book Club about "No Thanks: Black, Female, and Living in the Martyr-Free Zone." Based in Illinois, the group of friends wanted to talk about why they identified with certain themes, had questions about others and general thoughts on the book's importance and relevance. Moderated by performance artist, speaker and reader, Dr. Kimberly Chandler, the women discuss the depth of the book's content with laughter and lightness. One sistah shares her story of her 21-year-old self marrying the father of her child even though her gut was telling her it was a huge mistake. “He was a liar and a cheater and I knew it and still married him anyway. That’s really sad.” Another sistah entertains the group with her story of being cornered at a family cookout and told by the women in her family it was time for her to start using her womb for the reason God had given it to her. “They called my grandma over too and all of a sudden it turned into this whole thing where everyone was dissecting what was wrong with me because I didn’t want kids.” Sprinkled in with anecdotes from Keturah’s own experiences while on book tour and Kimberly’s personal choices that have also caused pushback in her church community and others, The Sistahs in the Story Book Club probe deep into the messages of “No Thanks” and courageously share their connections to it.

In this final episode of season one, Keturah Kendrick explains why she started Unchained. Unbothered. Detailing life-long experiences, she shares how it has always been her goal not to be suffocated. Keturah gives examples of how often black women are suffocated by assumptions, expectations and hidden agendas that are touted to them as in their best interest. In addition to her own experiences, she talks about hearing the stories of other women as she’s traveled the world. Because of patterns she has seen in these stories, she began conceptualizing a show that featured women who fought against their own suffocation. Women who claimed themselves the captains of their own ships as they steered confidently from the helm. “I no longer feel ashamed for believing I am enough for me,” Keturah states. “My life matters more to me than anyone else’s. And it will be my voice I heed when I make decisions regarding that life.”

Welcome to today's episode of Unclassified Woman. Today I'm speaking to Shanghai based Keturah Kendrick, who shares her perspective on being childfree by choice. Whose voice do you listen to most? When it comes to marriage and having children, it seems that everyone has an opinion regarding how YOU should live your life. Today’s show is all about listening to YOUR voice and making the choices that make YOU happy. Keturah Kendrick is an American writer, blogger and podcaster who has lived on three different continents and travelled to more than a dozen countries. For years she has written about her life as a single woman who sees being unmarried as a lifestyle choice like any other, as opposed to an “illness from which I must be cured.” She also writes about her lifelong disinterest in motherhood, critiquing the cultural expectation that black women, in particular, are destined to birth and raise children. An English teacher by trade, she has discussed her favourite books with her students in New York, Rwanda, and Shanghai. Her debut collection of essays, No Thanks: Black, Female, and Living in the Martyr-Free Zone, will be published in June 2019. Keturah enjoys food and travel, specifically, eating her way through her favourite countries---and who can blame her? What you’ll hear in this episode: Keturah calls New York and New Orleans home. She needed a break and wanted to travel, so spent 2 years in Rwanda teaching English and then found a position in Shanghai. Her not having a child is “absolutely by personal choice”---she always knew that motherhood would never be “her thing”. How she has felt the pressure just beneath the surface and has been told she is being silly, selfish, and must be a broken woman to not want children The mockery she felt when she voiced her desire to never have kids. How she was raised that the only thing that validated a woman's life was to be someone’s wife and mother. The subtle influences that she was “being unfair to her phantom husband” by not wanting children. Where is the logic in anyone trying to convince another person to have a baby? Why Keturah has become more vocal in her writing and her podcast. Why parenting should be a lifestyle choice that some people make and shouldn’t be tied to your gender. Many women around the world don’t have a choice and don’t have access to contraception. Why there should be tolerance for everyone’s right to individual choice about their roles. How Keturah uses her creative energy in her blog, writing, and being with other people. How she’s always been true to herself about what she wanted--”When I look back, I see that everyone was wrong but me.” The ways we encourage and blatantly tell young women that every other voice but their own is important. Why Keturah is glad she trusted in her own instincts and didn’t let anyone convince her to go against what she knew was right for her. How Keturah approached the topic of children with a longtime partner, who believed he may want children. The conditioning by society to fit the dominant narrative and how this plays out in relationships. Keturah’s advice: “Ignore everybody’s voice but your own, including your mother and your man. I want absolute joy and fulfilment for everyone. If motherhood is that for you, then do it, but if not, then listen to your voice until you make a decision.” Parting words from Keturah: Don’t get off the fence if you are undecided! Don’t be afraid to tell people to mind their own business! Listen to no one’s voice but your own!

Shira Obasuyi chats with Keturah Kendrick about growing up in a polyamorous family. She shares stories of the women in her family teaching her to value her relationship with herself over her relationships with any and all of her partners. She also explains why even though she never tried to force herself into the box of monogamy, entering the adult world where this structure was largely practiced did create struggles to relate to people she cared about, but could not understand. “I discovered that in monogamy, a partner will have lots of insecurities that they want you to fix,” she says. “My parents never talked about love the way I was hearing monogamous people define it.”
