• Session 436: The Sibling Sit-Down w/ Skylar Marshai & Sunlyn Chiraya

  Welcome back to another episode of our sibling sit-down series. I hope you’ve been enjoying it so far. We’ve answered sibling questions, broken down various sibling dynamics, so it’s only right that we sit down to chat with some actual siblings. This week, we're excited to welcome Skylar Marshai and Sunlyn Chiraya, a sister duo finding new ways to learn and love each other. We discuss the evolution of their relationship, the relationship with the rest of their siblings, explore how they resolve conflict, and get into what it really means to grow alongside someone who’s seen every version of you. From childhood memories to creative projects, Skylar and Sunlyn open up about the joys and challenges of sisterhood, how communication has transformed their bond, and what they’ve learned about giving each other grace.

• Session 435: Breaking Down Sibling Dynamics

  Welcome back to the second episode of our “Sibling Sit-Down” series, where we’re exploring sibling relationships and all the factors that shape the emotional dynamics created between them. Today, we're joined by Támara Hill, licensed clinical child and family therapist who has built an online platform by making mental health information accessible to the masses. We’re getting into questions like, what happens when siblings fall into familiar roles? How can parents nurture healthy relationships among their children? And what can adult siblings do to heal old wounds and strengthen their bonds? With so many elements in the mix, no one set of siblings has the same relationship as another.

• Session 434: Ask Dr. Joy - The Sibling Sit Down

  This week, we're kicking off a new mini-series here on the podcast that we're calling The Sibling Sit Down. Over the next couple of weeks, we will be digging into the bonds that have formed us and shaped us, the relationships that challenge us, and everything in between. We have found that the relationship with our siblings is often very formative — some of the most formative relationships we will have in our lives. We don't talk about them that much, and so we're hoping that with this mini-series, we can change that narrative just a little. In this first episode, it's an Ask Dr. Joy episode where I will be answering questions that have been submitted by our community members over in our Patreon channel. Ask Dr. Joy is typically an exclusive Patreon series, but we thought we'd bring it over here to the podcast to kick off this special mini-series all about siblings. Today, we're tackling three powerful questions: How do you navigate grief while honoring the bond you had with a sibling? How do you build healthy bonds in blended families with new siblings? How do you heal a volatile or contentious sibling relationship?

• Session 433: Erykah Badu x Jill Scott- 25 Years of Mama’s Gun & Who Is Jill Scott?

  This week we’re celebrating two iconic albums that have shaped the sound and soul of a generation, Erykah Badu’s Mama’s Gun and Jill Scott’s Who Is Jill Scott? Words and Sounds Vol. 1, both turning 25 this year. Joining us for this nostalgic and soul-filled conversation is Taryn Finley, journalist and founder of the Unbothered platform. During this conversation, we explore how these albums captured the essence of Black womanhood, love, sensuality, and self-discovery, and why they remain powerful touchstones for healing and self-expression today. We also talk about the emotional honesty both artists brought to their music and how their art continues to inspire new generations to embrace softness, vulnerability, and joy.

• BONUS: How Traveling Alone Can Spark Self-Discovery

  Seeing the world as a solo traveler pushes you to show up in a way only you can, as your most authentic self. And while the experience can be daunting, it welcomes opportunities for self-exploration and discovery. To be pushed out of your comfort zone in a place that’s not your home is a gift filled with moments that are sure to sharpen and evolve your mental health. In new and unfamiliar environments, you’re forced to rely on your instincts, make decisions independently, and answer the question, “What do I want?” The clarity that comes with being alone in the noise of a new city is the kind of clarity that can be hard to find in the busyness of our day-to-day lives. It’s in those quiet moments that can reveal new parts of ourselves. This is the final episode in our series of bonus episodes, presented by our partners at Chase Sapphire Reserve, focusing on travel, mental health, and the power of putting joy at the center of your life. We hope you've enjoyed them.
