As people of diasporic origin, living authentically means delving deep into our cultural legacy burdens. At ’Rich Queer Aunties,’ we go beyond financial success, embracing rich insights, truth, and authenticity.

Join me, Christabel, a nurse leader, writer, and African Auntie, as I share insights and practical resources such as self-care strategies, mindfulness practices, and deep cultural analysis. Drawing from my experiences overcoming a controlling religious and traditional African background to embracing life as an openly gay woman, I’ve gathered knowledge to help you live fully and authentically.

Each episode aims to help you uncover your subconscious narratives, prioritize your mental health, and nurture a meaningful community that truly reflects who you are. We’ll explore how merging our heritage of collectivism with individualism can lead to a peaceful state of interdependence.

Consider this podcast your sanctuary to redefine success, discover joy in the everyday, and reshape the narratives that have defined you.

It’s Not a Mother Wound. It’s Patriarchy.

Guests
Kachi

patriarchy mother wounds queerness girlhood rage abandonment healing systemic oppression feminism interdependence

We keep saying we have mother wounds, but what if the real injury is deeper than our mothers? In this episode, we ask the question no one wants to touch: Who are our mothers, really? Not the role they performed. Not the fears they passed down. But the person underneath all that patriarchal survival.

Christabel and Kachi crack open a deeply personal conversation about rage, abandonment, girlhood, queerness, and what it means to love our mothers without excusing the harm. From forced obedience to performative connection, we explore how patriarchy trains us to mistrust other women, and how healing means confronting the system, not scapegoating each other.

If you've ever felt triggered by other women, if you're grieving the relationship you never had with your mother, if you’re trying to change the dance by changing your own steps, this one’s for you.

Love & Rage - What Did You Inherit and What Are You Choosing

Love & Rage — What Did You Inherit and What Are You Choosing?


This is our first video upload. Let us know what you think! Should we do more videos?


How do we honor our rage without becoming who harmed us? In this episode of Rich Queer Aunties, we talk about love and rage, what we inherited, what we’re choosing instead, and how we’re learning to hold both without abandoning ourselves.

We speak as African daughters, as queer folks, as partners learning to fight fair, and as children unlearning obedience as the price of love. This conversation is honest, tender, and necessary.

We explore:

  • ​Why rage felt safer than softness in many of our homes
  • ​How rage and tenderness can coexist when we stop suppressing ourselves
  • ​The cost of performing obedience in relationships—especially with family
  • ​How we learned to channel anger into truth, not destruction
  • ​What it looks like to individuate without cutting off our roots

Severed Selves, Righteous Rage & the Courage to Reintegrate

Guests
Kachi
Keywords
emotional fragmentation reintegration rage community grief therapy chosen family healing queer Black immigrant religious background

In this raw and reflective episode of Rich Queer Aunties, Christabel and Kachi use the hit show Severance as a powerful metaphor for the emotional fragmentation many of us endure, especially queer, Black, immigrant, and formerly religious folks.

Through deeply personal storytelling, they explore themes of reintegration, rage, community, grief, and the courage it takes to reclaim your full self in a world that rewards compartmentalization. From family estrangement to navigating therapy, medicine, and chosen family, this conversation is a reminder that healing isn’t clean, but it’s real.

Whether you’ve seen Severance or not, this episode invites you to reflect: What parts of yourself have you severed to survive? And what would it take to live from a place of wholeness?

Building Relational Skills to Defy Empire

Guests
Kachi
Keywords
relational skills collective liberation individualism collectivism interdependence capitalism white supremacy patriarchy conflict resolution relational trauma emotional intelligence

In this episode of Rich Queer Aunties, we dive deep into why relational skills are essential for our collective liberation. We explore the tensions between individualism, collectivism, and interdependence, unpacking how capitalism, white supremacy, and patriarchy have shaped the way we relate to one another.

Christabel and Kachi reflect on their personal journeys with repair, conflict resolution, and deepening relational skills, not just in friendships and romantic relationships, but also in movement spaces. Why do so many relationships fall apart over unspoken expectations? How do we build the resilience to stay, repair, and grow while also discerning when to walk away?

We also talk about the role of community in healing from relational trauma, how prioritizing deep relationships is a direct act of resistance against empire, and why building strong relational skills is crucial for any liberatory movement. Plus, Christabel shares how her 12 years in nursing leadership have shaped her understanding of conflict navigation, emotional intelligence, and showing up for others, even when it’s hard.

This is an episode about unlearning, relearning, and doing the slow, necessary work of repair, for ourselves, our communities, and our collective futures.

If Your Spirituality Is Isolating You, It’s Not Working: A Critique of How We Practice Indigenous Spirituality

Keywords
spirituality indigenous wisdom decolonization community relational accountability healing colonial trauma interdependence

Spirituality should bring us closer to ourselves, to each other, and to the land. But too often, we see people leaving oppressive religious structures only to recreate the same hierarchies, dogma, and isolation in their spiritual journeys.

In this episode, we ask: Are we truly decolonizing our spirituality, or are we just replicating the same patterns with different language?

We explore:

✨ How indigenous wisdom offers pathways to healing beyond Western individualism

✨ The ways colonial trauma shapes modern spiritual practices

✨ Why relational accountability must be central to any spiritual path

✨ How to practice spirituality in a way that fosters community, connection, and liberation

Healing, unlearning, and reclaiming indigenous knowledge should not make us lonelier. It should deepen our relationships and bring us home to interdependence.
