In this episode, our hosts dive into Matriarch, the powerful new memoir by the iconic Tina Knowles. The ladies relive Tina's journey from a small town in Louisiana to Galveston, Texas, and eventually to the heart of pop culture. They explore her roles as a daughter, mother, entrepreneur, wife, fashion designer, and community leader. Moni and Kat also discuss the legacy of Black motherhood, the generational wisdom that shaped Beyoncé and Solange, and how Tina’s story inspires cultural pride, courage, creativity, and purpose. Just in time for Mother’s Day, this conversation is a celebration of the mothers who shape us and the stories they carry in their hearts.
