2:55 Speaker 01 Hey y'all, welcome back to I Have Some Thoughts, our weekly mini-soad episodes that are focused on pop culture topics, but of course, from a mental health lens. And we are talking about all kinds of exciting things. So Bria, welcome back.
3:09 Speaker 05 Yes, hi, everyone.
3:11 Speaker 01 So excited to join you again this week to hear what we're talking about.
3:15 Speaker 05 Yes, so today, we have a couple of really interesting topics. First, I don't know if you saw this, but Serena and Venus Williams are going to be reuniting. So they have announced that they're bringing their doubles partnership back, and they will actually compete at Wimbledon together. And that starts in just a few days at this point. They haven't played together since 2022. And this comes actually after, I think, a few weeks ago, when Serena announced that she was going to be returning to competition after four years away from professional tennis. Now, everyone's aware of what a powerhouse these two are. They won 14 Grand Slam titles together in doubles, including six at Wimbledon in the past throughout their careers. So let's talk about like, what makes sibling relationships so uniquely powerful? Or what can make them so powerful?
4:00 Speaker 05 So how do sibling relationships shape our confidence, our identity, our sense of belonging throughout our lives?
4:07 Speaker 01 Oh, so I'm very excited to see this comeback. So I think when I heard Serena announced that she was coming back, I don't know that I thought it would be like immediately. So clearly she has been training for this.
4:17 Speaker 05 Right.
4:17 Speaker 01 So I'm really excited to see how they will do in the doubles. But this question kind of makes me think about our sibling sit down series, right, where we talk to different sets of siblings about their experiences. You know, some siblings working together in similar to Serena and Venus. And so I think that there is this shared language and this shared history that often makes sibling pairs, in this case, really dynamic. And especially in their case, we know a lot about like how they were brought up and how much their parents poured into them and very strict kind of training schedules and really have been groomed to be champions. And so I think when there is that kind of shared history, that kind of sense of shared values, it can go a very long way, especially for something like sports.
5:02 Speaker 05 Yep. And I think even like with the fact that they've been on similar paths, but also at the same time, like two different paths. Like Serena stepped away from professional tennis. Venus was competing more sporadically. How can we learn from these relationships like as they're evolving? We're going through like different seasons of success or changes or even challenges as siblings? How can we grow through that?
5:26 Speaker 01 Yeah, I think that that has been really cool to see, right? That they have, of course, had this kind of shared path, but that they did stop and do their own things. You know, Venus has kind of competed pretty regularly for the past couple of years and Serena did step away. And I would imagine that that led to like lots of conversations, right, around maybe even returning or is this something that they wanted to do? Was Venus more okay continuing on her own path, right? Like there may have been some tricky things to kind of navigate. And so I think the key for siblings in any kind of relationship is really what are those conversations? And how can we maybe sometimes have difficult conversations where it may be awkward and like, I don't know how to tell you this, but I'm kind of interested in coming back. Like, do you want to be doubles partners again, right? Like, that may not have been an easy conversation. We don't know.
6:10 Speaker 01 But I think the key to any of that is really being able to have difficult conversations and to be honest with one another and, you know, but also to be able to celebrate one another, right? Like, I'm sure Serena was in the background celebrating her sister while she stepped away. And Venus was celebrating the fact that Serena was stepping away, right? And so I think there's a sense of being happy for each other's individual goals, but also really excited about the things that they are able to accomplish when they're together.
6:36 Speaker 05 Absolutely. I feel like that's such like an interesting point, too, because I feel like it's so easy to assume that because they're siblings and they spent all of these years together, having those conversations might be like, quote unquote, simple. But at the end of the day, everyone's still human, everyone's still has feelings, things like that, too. Well, our next topic, are you familiar with the show Solo Traveling with Tracey Ellis Ross?
6:58 Speaker 01 I am, I am.
6:59 Speaker 05 Yeah, okay, so we got a first look at season two. This new season's gonna follow Tracey as she solo travels to areas like northern Thailand and Melbourne, Australia. And Tracey has been very vocal. She's done tons of interviews about how she's a happily single and child free and how she's really in this season of her life where she's choosing herself. She speaks a lot about the importance of creating moments that are meaningful, whether you're in a relationship or not, and if you have to do them solo, not passing up on opportunities because you don't have a partner to do like certain things with. So how can solo experiences help people build confidence and self-trust? Just like a stronger sense of identity along the way, too.
7:42 Speaker 01 So I know that our community is very excited about season two because I saw lots of excitement and lots of like, will we get a new season? And so there were lots of cheers when we found out that we were getting season two. And I think that for so many people, Tracey really is like a possibility model of what your life can look like outside of like romantic partnership, right? And not from like this deficit, like, oh, my gosh, woe is me kind of place, but like, I still have a very full life to live and I'm going to do that. So I think travel, especially in like doing things solo, and we've talked about this on the podcast across probably several different episodes at this point, around how things like solo travel and doing different hobbies by yourself really can instill a sense of confidence.
8:26 Speaker 01 I think especially when you're traveling internationally, right, where you may be going to places where they don't speak the language, you are not familiar with like the transportation system. And so you're stretching yourself into some ways that may be kind of uncomfortable. And then really forcing yourself to rely on your own sense of adventure and like what kind of skills you need to put together to navigate. And keep yourself safe and have fun in a new, different place. And so I think it is one of those experiences that introduces skills and kind of test skills that feel very difficult to embrace and tune in other places of our lives, right? Like as you're going about your regular life, maybe there are some opportunities for that kind of thing, but I think things like solo travel really stretch you in ways that are faster than you could typically do in your day to day.
9:09 Speaker 05 Definitely, I totally agree. And for people who aren't super familiar with solo traveling or doing hobbies or going out even by themselves, what advice would you give them as far as stepping out and making those like first steps to really enjoy like your alone time and trying new things without waiting for a partner per se?
9:30 Speaker 01 Mm hmm. I've been really excited to see the, kind of, and this is not a new thing. I'm sure like group trips always existed, but there are lots of different organizations and lots of different black women that I've seen kind of sponsoring like these group travel trips. So it's kind of like you're alone, but like not really, right? And so for people who maybe want to do this, but are like a little anxious or nervous about like completely solo. I think joining a small group trip could be a great way to visit somewhere new and you still kind of have some alone time, but you're there with other people and meeting new people, right? If you don't go with anybody else that you know, I think that's still a very important skill, like social skills that you're cultivating and learning new places and meeting new people.
10:10 Speaker 01 So I think that that could be a great way to do that. Um, but I also think like committing to low stakes kinds of things that we've talked about, you know, like is there like a community college class that you want to take or some workshop in your area, like just really putting yourself out there and exploring the things that you are curious about, not necessarily with any like in gold in mind, but just I'm curious about this thing and I want to know more about it. I want to find new experiences to participate in. I think low stakes ways really give you the opportunity to do that.
10:39 Speaker 05 No, absolutely. I did my first solo travel back in 2023 and it was to Portugal. And there's like this big group chat of like black people in Portugal. And I didn't know anyone when I was going, but they would do like tours and things like that too. So you could just kind of hop along. And then there were other people who were solo traveling as well. And it just made the whole experience a lot less intimidating. And I think that applies to kind of what you were saying too with some like the more low stakes things, like even with events or classes or things like that. There's tons of people who are probably doing it by themselves too. And so you can kind of make community through that way as well.
11:16 Speaker 01 Exactly. More from our conversation after the break. A rare disease diagnosis can change your life, but it doesn't have to define your future.

15:50 Speaker 05 Well, for our final story, let's talk about Lil Nas X. So last year, Lil Nas X was found wandering around Los Angeles. He wasn't in a great state. He didn't have any clothes on. It was an encounter that landed him arrested and ultimately charged with three counts of battery, shortly after he checked himself into a mental health treatment facility. But he actually shared last week that he was out and he was doing much better. Now, he shared that while he was in treatment, he received a bipolar disorder diagnosis. And he said it felt very validating because he felt that he kind of knew this already about himself, but simultaneously, he kind of felt like he didn't want to admit it at the same time because he had already made this choice that he is living as a gay man,
16:35 Speaker 05 he's also living as a black man, and he, in his words, feels like he was already living life on quote unquote, extreme hard mode, living under both of those different intersections there. And I think it like opens a broader conversation about some of the things that can really prevent people from seeking support before reaching a breaking point. So like Lil Nas X had described, that he was feeling reluctant to acknowledge his diagnosis. And I'm wondering from your perspective, like, how can stigma make it harder for people to seek help or to even accept what they feel is already happening with them?
17:10 Speaker 01 I was really excited to see that video come across the timeline last week because he looks so much better, right? Like, he looks like he's much healthier, in a very good place. I'm really happy that we kind of get to see him again and that he is kind of sharing this part of his life with us. I think for something like a bipolar disorder diagnosis, you know, I think mental health stigma, of course, is the largest reason why the podcast existed in the first place, right? Like, there's stigma related to mental health kind of across the board, but I think that there are certain diagnoses, certain kind of classes of concern that there isn't extenuating, or there is even more stigma related to it, right? And I think something like a bipolar disorder tends to be one of those cases, just because
17:52 Speaker 01 you see so much more disruption typically in that person's life and also in the lives of people that like are surrounding them. And so, you know, for example, like when he was arrested, right? Like, there were other people involved and, you know, like, we don't even know all of the details of that, but there tends to be like an escalation in behavior that I think makes it much more embarrassing to kind of talk about and like, oh, my gosh, I don't know what's wrong with me, right? And so even he's indicating like, I kind of knew something was going on, but I didn't want to admit it to myself. And I think that a lot of that comes from the ways that we talk about people who have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, the way that we treat people, the kind of casual way we kind of throw around that kind of term, right? Like, oh, stop being so bipolar, right?
18:37 Speaker 01 Like, those kinds of things, we don't always think about it, but those kinds of things do actually increase stigma and make it more difficult for somebody to come forward to get help and also to be open and sharing about the ways that they are struggling. And I think especially for artists and like people who do creative things, and we talked about this on the podcast, when we talked about bipolar disorder, people who are artists and creative often struggle with the idea of like taking medication for things like bipolar disorder because they're worried about what will this mean in terms of my creativity? Will I still be able to access that part of my brain? Will my creativity kind of still flow the same? And so I think that that's probably an added layer of nuance for him in that he may have
19:20 Speaker 01 been concerned about what this means in terms of his ability to kind of make music and still show up in the ways that he wanted to.
19:26 Speaker 05 Yeah. I remember that was a huge conversation for Kanye too, as he was kind of struggling with his bipolar disorder and. Choosing to kind of go the unmedicated route because he kind of felt it was so tied to his creativity too. So that's a great point. And then there's also this added layer for someone like Lil Nas X or someone like Kanye West, who is kind of battling some of these disorders and the symptoms that come with that and the impact that it has to them and then also their communities as well. But they also have this added layer of the fact that they're in the public eye and that people are watching. I struggle to believe that the video that we saw of Lil Nas X would have went viral if somebody driving by hadn't been like, oh, that's Lil Nas X.
20:10 Speaker 05 Someone might have recorded it, but it wouldn't have gotten all like the press and all the news releases that it got. So like, what are some of the emotional challenges that can arise when someone's trying to recover or heal, but also trying to like balance living in the public eye as well?
20:26 Speaker 01 Yeah, I think that that's really tough. I mean, because I think, again, a diagnosis like this is difficult. I think to manage even when you're not in the public eye, right? There tends to be lots of changes in terms of lifestyle and getting your support system on board. Sometimes it does involve trying different kinds of medications and, you know, pretty consistent therapy. And so it is like a huge undertaking. And so for somebody who is in the public life or in the public eye and like there are already people checking hospital logs to see, you know, what celebrities have been checked in and, you know, like that kind of thing. It doesn't give you the sense of privacy that you sometimes need to be able to just tend to like, okay, let me get my life back on track. And so I think that there is a tension between wanting to do what you need to do for yourself,
21:09 Speaker 01 but also this responsibility that I think like artists have to make music and how do I, you know, kind of continue to give to my community? How do I continue to express my art? But also I think that there's just in the advent of everybody kind of being an on the ground reporter, because we all have phones. It really does take away any sense of privacy and confidentiality, which I think can make you more reluctant to actually doing the things that you need to do. And so I think public figures do have that additional challenge that it is very difficult, I think, for their privacy to be maintained just because there are kind of reporters all over the place.
21:48 Speaker 05 Yep, totally agree. And even like to your point also, it's like. For the average person, you kind of have to balance the perceptions of your family and your friends. And then for celebrities, it's like family, friends, and then all of these millions of people that are like familiar with you and kind of know your name or have access to you on social media and things like that, too. So.
22:08 Speaker 01 Yeah, you bring up a great point, right? I mean, because if you know, you and I had a diagnosis like this, like it would be maintained to our families. But he also has the public profile where people are just kind of commenting about his health in ways that aren't always like supportive or kind, right? And so in addition to taking care of yourself, then you also have to try to avoid all of this negative commentary that, you know, a non-celebrity does not have to worry about.
22:34 Speaker 05 Absolutely. Yes. Well, I'm to your point, I'm so happy that he's doing well and like continue to send positive vibes and light his way and hope that he stays on the right track, too. But that was our last topic.
22:47 Speaker 01 Perfect. Another great list. Thank you so much for that, Bria. And if there are pop culture topics that you are thinking about or excited about that you want us to chat about, you can always send those to us at therapyforblackgirls.com/mailbox.
