Sis, Please!

Satta and Jaretta are two black millennial women who discuss topics like navigating dating, marriage, motherhood and busy careers. What makes them unique? Their different perspectives on life, love (and everything in between) based on their nearly 10-year age difference. And one other thing: they used to share a bunk bed growing up. Yes, these Queens aren't just sister friends. They are truly sisters. Listen in as Satta and Jaretta share their life experiences and journeys as black women in their 30s and invite you to share yours, as well. Welcome to the fam, and welcome to Sis, Please! 💛👩🏾👧🏾👩🏾‍🦰👩🏾‍🦱👱🏾‍♀️👸🏾👩🏾‍⚕️👩🏾‍🎓👩🏾‍🏫🧕🏾💛 This podcast is hosted and sponsored by Satta Sarmah Hightower and Jaretta Konneh. When Satta isn't sharing her life experiences with Jaretta, she works in content marketing and helps technology & financial services companies powerfully convey their message. A storyteller at heart, Satta has a master's degree from Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism. When Jaretta isn't dealing with the craziness of dating apps, she works as a non-profit professional. She has a master's degree from the Harvard Graduate School of Education.
