]]> On this episode of the Melanated Movement Podcast, Tess & Anne are rejoined by a very special guest: Mel! She makes her second appearance on the show since our "How We Love" series - "Conditional Love". This time, we tackle toxicity in relationships; accountability and the many forms intimate relationships take. 

Join us as we take a bit of a dive. We laugh; we sigh; inspire thought, and  celebrate the growth within with each other!
