Miss Understood The Podcast

Small things can really make a huge impact. It is often said that the principles behind a matter often outweigh the actual matter at hand. Is having an emotional affair within a 22 year marriage a deal breaker? What if your husband insisted on naming your baby, and years later you find out that it was named after his 1st love? Ouch… a stinger, right! Grab your strongest vice and chill with us as we unpack the “overall” picture in situations that aren’t just black and white… and discuss different approaches to handle life’s grey areas.

This week’s episode is brought to you with a lot of awareness.

Join us as we shed light on Asia’s entrepreneurial journey, the urban tale of spaghetti sauce spells, and getting down to the true nature of how foundational love impacts adult relationships.

Grab your vices, therapeutic grounding techniques, and let’s unpack some good ol’ awareness!

Ya know, sometimes sh*t just happens in life and ya gotta go with the flow.

Well, that’s also the theme for this week’s episode. We’ve just survived another retrograde, entering the last quarter of the year, and we’re all tired!

We try to adjust and pivot, and at times, we missed the mark. But we still show up!

Grab your vices, relax, and just continue to spread grace! Cheers!

This week’s episode is brought to you with extreme fatigue and famine!

Do you think AfterPay is for the “poors?” Do you demand 5-star restaurants on the first date? Or let us find out that y’all throw shade at your friends when they’re in a different season than you. And what does men, rejection, and hitting a woman with a brick have in common?

Tune in and see! If any of these sound awfully alarming to you, you could be entitled to compensation!

Well, not really! But you can sit yo ass down and grab your vices as we try to get an understanding on why some of y’all choose to make life on this planet harder than what it has to be.

Let’s get some understanding!

In our latest shenanigans, we unravel our “experiences!” From Beyonce concerts to Kama sutra!

Join us this week as we get spicy with our anonymous "Strawberry Letters" and help one of our loyal guests figure out who her baby daddy is!

And if that isn’t enough drama, guess which host has took a fall from grace (again) during her healing journey and backslides.

So get comfortable and expect a whole lot of debauchery as we get an understanding of our experiences….

Whether it’s faking orgasms or compromising sex positions… we’re talking about it!

Hey Barbie! This week we breakdown the Barbie movie! We've put this off long enough, so we hope that you've already gone to see it! if not, SPOILER ALERT! Of course we couldn't do an episode without our "strawberry letters" so you know we had some crazy questions come up!

Catch us with us this week on another episode of MISS UNDERSTOOD!

This week's Strawberry Letter was a doozy!

What would you do if you were dating someone for 8 years and found out it was your brother? How about your cousin?

Ya'll are coming with the crazy stories and we LOVE it.

Tune in to another episode as we try to get some things UNDERSTOOD.

It is said that the number “three” marks great significance in the areas of harmony, wisdom, and understanding! What better way to jump off Season 3 than doing just that! We’re so excited to bring you guys on yet another riveting new season of gaining an understanding! We even added an eye orgasm with our new set!

We’ve missed you! and hope you've missed us just as much! We hope we didn't leave you hanging for too long!

You know how we’re coming each and every Friday! So secure your lace-fronts and grab your vice because we’re diving right in on array of topics starting with the pains of childbirth!

ISSA WRAP!

Season 2, that is! “Miss Understood the Podcast” Season 2 is complete! This season you all have went on a wild ass rollercoaster of emotions with us as we enthusiastically roared “F**k them kids, F**k that girl, F**k that man, F**k that ‘they/them,” F**k racism, sexism, colorism, and every “ism” known to society. Grab ya glasses and let’s toast to another entertaining season of getting UNDERSTOOD!

Twas the day after 4/20 and all through the house, Toya and Asia showed up & turned this podcast episode out! This week was deep! You know the type of “deep” you get when you release all of your inhibitions and just let it out because you’re on such a natural high? Gather your vices and open your mind because we definitely went on a trip. We tapped into anxieties, potential dating prospects, and whether a damn rotisserie chicken is a teenager or an adult! Yep…don’t even wonder, just kick your feet up & be prepared to be entertained!

We love all marginalized groups…hell, we come from one! But we’d be remiss if we fail to get an understanding on things. The trans community…step up to the podium please! He/She/They/Them and all the gender identities… let’s talk!

I think times have progressed to a point we can respect everyone and not agree with everything. So, open your mental palettes. Disband your weapons of defense. And come have a seat at the table as we discuss going against the status quo and laying everything on the floor.

All in all, we just want everyone to be happy and know that your happiness is your responsibility. Respect is our birthright, but joy and peace is something we often have to advocate for, to get it, or keep it; no matter what we identify as…we’re beings having a human experience. So put down your guard and pick up your feelings and wine down with us…We even an inserted a freaky, wild game edition of “Would You Rather” in this episode. So after the wine has kicked in…comment and let us know what you think!

What do you think of when you think of the “P-word?”

Yeah, yeah…Get your mind out of the gutter and hear us out for a second friend! We’re talking about everything from politics to polyamory this week!

These words just ring controversy, taking a stance, satisfaction or even dissatisfaction. Either way, we’re having some uncomfortable conversations as a means to gain comfort, knowledge, and an understanding on a few things.

So hopefully your lace fronts are glued down securely and your Beijing hairlines are freshly dyed because we’re going to blow your head gaskets! ”

A wise person quoted, “You don’t get the life you deserve, you get the life you work for.”

One of the things that takes constant work is becoming more aware of who you are. Once you realize that certain people, places, and things don’t serve you, then you move different. And one of life’s greatest revelations is when you learn to simply not give 1 single ounce of a f**k!

We literally don’t give too many f**ks that we may have potentially incriminated ourselves this week; but guess what? We don’t care!

So “wine-down” with us. Cheers to surviving another week and saying f**k it to everything else!

You know that profound feeling of redemption when you get a revelation? The freedom, the secureness, the weigh lift, the “hell-yeah” moment! 

Well, we’ve seen the light this week folks! 

Maybe it’s because Toya has turned a year older or Asia is overjoyed about new heights on the horizon in her life. But one thing is for certain, we’re elevating and the dumb shit isn’t going with us! including the "strong, black woman" character! we're living the soft life over here!

So raise your glasses and shake ya asses because this week, we’ve got a lot to toast about!

Chileeeee it’s been a week and sometimes showing up and being present gets you a gold sticker on your forehead! 

That’s what you can expect from this week’s episode. Between being overworked, jet-lagged, and sex-deprived, all while balancing the beauty in life…we are worn! 

So relax with us and shoot us some good vibes while you’re at it, hell!

What do you get after sipping a couple glasses of Rosé and fooling with the “Miss Understood” posse???

A colorful conversation about pregnancy “semesters,” pubes and landing strips, and whole lot of just accepting the fact that we’re all trying to feel good while figuring some shit out!  

Prepare your hearts and minds for another wild adventure as Asia & Toya get an understanding on a few things!

Life is a dance of surrender and control. Once you surrender to the rhythm of life’s “beat,” you have better control of certain situations.   

Tonight’s episode hones in on various topics about resistance and acceptance when it comes to embracing you, Black pride, aggravations, and even animal sex! Bizarre huh?! But the most important question, how long is too long to have sex in one session? 2 different opinions and you'll never guess whose answer is whose!  

We wouldn’t be us if we weren’t wild! Govern your mental palettes accordingly as you enjoy another relatable episode of being Understood.

We, as women, love being understood. Hell…the title of our show was curated for this very reason! 

Let’s take a dive and unpack some questions, debunk some myths, and give a voice to our male counterparts about getting an understanding of our “emotions.” 

Hopefully notes will be taken and observations will be studied to procure a cohesive space for men to understand our colorful emotions and why like to “draw outside the lines of logic” and express ourselves.

There is so much beauty in balance, don’t ya think?!

Your favorite dynamic duo is back with another episode and ready to put some real rawness in your lap.

Seriously, grab your vice of choice and relax with us as Asia rehashes her beautiful travels and as Toya fights the urge to not mourn … yet another damn relationship!

We’re peeling back some layers and really telling how it is, in our world. This episode is a “for sure vibe” and a combustion of sugar, spice, and everything nice! And it will definitely leave you with the things we all could use right now: traveling, therapy, a freaking purge, and a safe space to just be real!

We’re through with 2022! It yanked a few of us by our edges & some of us had a stellar year.

While we’re embracing a new year of beginnings, goals, and another chance to “get it right,” let’s peep through our rear view mirrors once more to recap what we’re leaving behind! We conjured up some collectives that we’d like tossed in 2023!

Chill with us and let’s talk about it as we open up this new year with a brand new season of hotness for y’all!

What are a few things that come to mind when you think about the value of intimacy? 

Whether it’s sex and physical intimacy, emotional intelligence, spiritual alignment, or all of the above…how do you effectively communicate your needs to your partner? 

Relax with us as we chat about intimacy on all levels and unravel various ways to have in-depth conversations that lead to more fulfilling connections.

“We’re getting old Bitch!” 

While ‘getting old’ isn’t a nightmare these days, you can’t help but to notice the SHIFT that takes place as you age. 

Whether it’s heightened maturity, body aches, post-party recovery times, or aging like fine wine…you’re still aging. 

Kick it with us as we get transparent about the joys and woes of growing… we know y’all old asses may need naps, soon so happy listening!

Relationships are the SHIPS that make life’s journey more meaningful. The maintenance and upkeep that goes into maintaining them can be a joy and a chore!

Whether it be family, friends, romantic, associates, colleagues, etc., we all have a responsibility to show up and do the paddling in these “ships.”

But let’s keep it real, how daunting is it when your parents/guardians didn’t equip you with the proper foundational tools? Or how do you handle friends growing in different directions in life? How to make time for these ships when you’re drowning and trying to stay afloat?

Since we've already talked about romantic relationships, let’s dig back into the foundational relationships with our parents and friends that all make us the person we are.

No matter the tier of relationships, they take work! Kick back with us as we unpack how we balance the love, care, compassion, reciprocation, and sometimes, letting go of relationships.

Fellas? Have you been with a woman who’s indecisive, lacks accountability, doesn’t show reciprocity, thrives off of her “Sugar Bowl” and good looks? 

Well…you could be entitled to compensation!…Not really… but what you can do is chime in on this extremely raw episode of “Ladies in the Hot Seat,” as we reveal our toxic revelations and take…(moment of silence)… accountability! 

Yeah that’s right! We’re dishing it all and keeping it real. So prepare for the ego trip of your lives fellas and go easy on us! And ladies… let’s remain in solidarity! 

We thought it was fine time that you actually get to know the women behind Miss Understood. You've been enjoying our antics but who are we really? Where did this idea come from? 

Chill out and vibe with us as we just take a moment to be unstructured, uncouth, and unfiltered because sometimes that’s just life! Our podcast was birthed from a freestyle dinner conversation that led us into sharing ourselves with you all. It’s the true essence of “Who We Are!”

Why not a bonus episode this week?

No topic, just vibes. This episode was too hilarious not to share with you guys. By now, you know Toya is ALWAYS with the shit and Asia comes in to get her ass back on track.

Catch up with us this week in this bonus episode to see what we've been up to.

Society is such a “label whore” ain’t she? If you’re not married by 30, then you’re damaged goods. If you’re married, you have a badge of honor that deems you “whole.” Right?…

WRONG! Take a chill pill with us as we break down the ancient societal tags that have been placed on us as well as the modern societal tags that debunk the old Flintstone way of thinking. 

So all of the fine, rich aunties…this is a safe space for you. And all of you matrimony Mrs have room here as well! 

Let’s talk being “Single vs. Married!”

Ladies secure your lace fronts and fellas, strap up your boots and ... well some of you can secure your lace fronts too … Issa battle going on! 

This weeks episode is a “Battle of the Sexes”  featuring fellow podcaster, London of @toxicandfertilepodcast. But it’s not just a battle between the sexes but a battle to tackle, “Why is there nuclear waste in the dating pool?” 

Join us as we hold the fellas and ladies accountable and get real and speak on what we all feel! Let's get deep as we discuss our different versions of what's wrong with dating in this century. Because let's be honest, there is some weird shit going on!

There’s something about a woman who knows her divine feminine power and flaunts it unapologetically. We stan a top tier woman who knows what she wants and what she needs.

Relax with us as we unearth some golden jewels that us gworlz like! While you’re grabbing your wine and vices…some of you may wanna take notes because we’ve got a lot of unpacking to do. After all, this is ‘free game!’ And while every play doesn’t work for every game, we’d love to hear what it is you want while thriving in your journey of womanhood! 

In a world where age is no longer a factor, which decade do you fancy more? 

Those relentless 20’s where you blazed the foundation for ‘real’ adulthood, partied til 5 a.m., went to work at 8 a.m. and troubles were nothing but champagne bubbles? Or was it your sexy and sophisticated 30’s where your battle wounds from the prior decade morphed you into the unapologetic, accomplished person you are now? Still young enough to give ‘em a “run for their money” but wise enough to know what truly serves you. 

Chime in on this week’s episode as we dive into the past, present and future of these fabulous decades and how we made it out alive…and still trying to!

Long gone are the days of not loving out loud. Marginalized communities have been speaking up, out, loudly and proudly. The LGBTQ+ community has broken barriers in society and created space for love to be accepted without limits. 

This week’s featured guest, Fred Walker, is a dear friend to the Miss Understood Podcast and shares his views on his community, love, and what it is to be ally and to understand people who don’t look, act, and love the way you do! 

Human interaction is something we all crave, it’s a birthright. But we also know that sometimes, interaction is draining, hurtful, and leaves a lasting imprint if handled improperly. 

Good ‘ol relationship trauma has taunted us all! So whether you’re healing, dealing, avoiding, managing or conquering it… none of us are exempt. 

Grab ya seat, hold on to your triggers and let’s talk!

If you’re sexually conservative, sexually liberated, rededicating your pearls and sacs back to the Creator, classy and sassy with it, raunchy, direct, or Virgin Mary… 

Let’s peel back some layers and go underneath the covers and talk about sex babyyyyy!  Get cozy and get an earful about what we feel… or may not be feeling! 

This JUICY episode lets you in on some dirty little secrets for sure! It’s definitely not one to be missed. 

Being single isn’t the death sentence society once deemed it to be and dating should be fun! Shopping for candidates, getting dressed up, and the overall excitement of potential romance… right?… 

Well not exactly! I think we can attest that the dating pool has urine and a few traces of nuclear waste in it! You could be entitled to compensation (or at least therapy) if you’ve dealt with mates that want to be spoiled so soon, brings up sex early on without “reading the room,” inconsistent communication, and much more. 

In this episode, we get into “dating games” amongst millennials and the mockery that it is.
