Ladies Doing Stuff Podcast

Ladies Doing Stuff Podcast

Aamber and Charlie understand that adulting as millennial black women in Los Angeles is not easy. These best friends started Ladies Doing Stuff Podcast so that women can know they are not alone in their desire for perfection, or even just for survival. After college graduation, the ladies simply picked up their high school friendship right where they left off; but they found that their adult lives were not that simple at all. Job losses, new marriages, and keeping friendships are just a few things that they learned to navigate along the way. All of this while living in Los Angeles, a city with not-so-many “angels” as it turns out. Aamber and Charlie created Ladies Doing Stuff Podcast as a safe space to share hilarious experiences, contrasting opinions, and to create a proudly imperfect community for women of color.

On more than one occasion, Cheram and Aamber have put in overtime trying to figure out what men ACTUALLY mean when they say things. When he says, "I ain't trippin" after you talk to his friend a little too long. Or when you're not dating exclusively and he says, "I'm cool it." Is he? What does he really mean?

Why is it that we always seem to get the apology we've been waiting for a little too late? We've already started the healing process, journaled about you, talked to our friends about every shady thing you've done and NOW you choose to write a 6-page letter with a half apology? Not that we're talking from experience or anything...

The Ladies wanna know if there’s any good men left because our track record - more specifically Cheram’s track record - has yielded negative returns on investments when it comes to trying to find a partner.

That means something is wrong with the world, right? There’s just a bunch of unloved and unhealed men who don’t know what it means to love anyone outside of themselves right? Or what if we were the problem?

"I don't know if you know this about us, but we're 30 something..."

 

What's the difference between being in your 20s and being in your 30s? Low back pain out of nowhere and a good amount of life lessons, that's what.  Cheram and Aamber look back at their 20-ish year old selves and ask "how were you feeling then versus now?"  We've discovered a lot about ourselves: what we thought was important back then no longer is a priority, and ...

Dating in Los Angeles is like having a picnic on the beach. It sounded like a good idea at the time! Next thing you know the wind picks up, your towel folds in, and you have a heavy helping of sand in your guacamole. We're back from summer break to ask you all a serious question: “Should I give up on dating?” Both of us have had our fair share of dating disasters and relationship regrets, but Aamber is about 2.3 seconds away from t...

Examples of creepy Craigslist room rental inquiry responses: These are real ⬇️

"U looking sexy want to be my live in girlfriend"

"Are you open to a live in girlfriend situation? Free rent as long as you stay. Doesn't have to be only sexual but actually build something nice together or keep it simple. "

"I don’t have a room for you, but I do have cash. Maybe we can still help each other out?"

*ALEXA! What are feelings?* To be fair, this previously unreleased episode was made in early 2019.  Back in the day even when things weren't all COVID-Y, we were feeling so overwhelmed with a lack of emotion that we had to ask ourselves the question, "Can you feel anything?" In retrospect, we were probably depressed. So naturally, this episode consists of 30% nervous laughter. 😅However, we digress. Today, we are a in a completely...
