On this episode of The Antidote, Amy and Grace introduce a new segment, ‘Storytime,’ where they tell each other a story about themselves! Grace and Amy share their happiest childhood memories, which include Narnia, teeny weeny afros, and redefining beauty.
Amy and Grace also share their bummer news of the week – rent in Manhattan reaches a new high, and sitting all day can cause health problems, even if you exercise. They also share their antidotes: the two of them went to a beautiful patio restaurant for a de-stress dinner date.
This week’s Creative Tap-In:
“Make up a story... For our sake and yours forget your name in the street; tell us what the world has been to you in the dark places and in the light. Don't tell us what to believe, what to fear. Show us belief's wide skirt and the stitch that unravels fear's caul.”
― Toni Morrison
