More Like a See You Later and Embracing the Pivot

They say all good things come to an end, and this is one of those things. We've loved sharing our thoughts on life in podcast format, but have decided to continue Say So Collective in a different format (we promise more details to come as we flesh everything out). Thank you all for riding with us and listening to each episode as they went live. It's bittersweet, but pivoting is something we will always advocate for if it is necessary. With that said, we'll see y'all over on our socials with more details on our next steps! Follow us on Instagram: @sayso_collective Follow the Hosts: @thedailyseyi, @aminamarie, & @yvettecorinne

What Happened to Black History Month in 2023?!

Black History Month this year was...quiet to say the least. In 2021, we saw brands throwing out campaigns left and right to Black creators as a means to rectify the diversity and inclusion issues that were brought to light in 2020, but it kinda feels like that momentum somehow came to a screeching halt. We dive more into our disappointment with the lack of #BHM campaigns that we saw and what it actually means to be inclusive and an ally in the influencer space. Spoiler alert: it's more than posting a black square in solidarity. Follow us on Instagram: @sayso_collective Follow the Hosts: @thedailyseyi, @aminamarie, & @yvettecorinne

How Many Boundaries do You Have to Give Up to be an Influencer?

Oh to be an influencer. To share things that we love and to get to work with brands that we've always admired. And then there's the transparency. Sharing more about our personal struggles, wins, triumphs, and losses. But...do we sort of give up these boundaries in order to be an influencer?? Is it necessary for us to share every single detail pertaining to our lives in order to be considered transparent and authentic? And what if people start to cross those boundaries and feel that they have access to things that you never talked about? We share our thoughts on this and what we actually feel comfortable sharing online and things we like to keep to ourselves.

Entering the Dating Era, Gatekeeping the Black Community, and Making Goals??

Kicking off S2 with Seyi entering her dating era! To know her is to know that this is a pretty big deal. Our girl Yvette is now a married woman (remember S1, E12 when she talked about her and her husband's journey as a couple)! And Amina made a pretty big life change that we like to call entering her self love era. Honestly, so much has changed in less than 6 months and we are getting right into it with this episode. So buckle up, grab some tea/coffee, and maybe a snack or two because THE GANG IS BACK! :)

Season 1

the ALgOriTHm: Are we over social media??

ALGORITHM!!! In our final episode of our first season, we give our very honest feelings about the state of social media and how we are trying to navigate the space as both content creator and consumer. If you are a consumer, we would love to hear your thoughts on the state of social media and how it's evolving has impacted your own personal life. If you are a creator, has your view become more positive or negative with social media? Follow us on Instagram @sayso_collective Follow the Hosts: @thedailyseyi, @aminamarie, @yvettecorinne

Giving an Ultimatum to your Significant Other & The Dangers of Looking at "Potential"

Long overdue topic? Maybe! In this episode we talk about all of our current relationship statuses (or current based on the recording of this episode) and our thoughts on giving ultimatums to your significant other. Is it something that is necessary? Can it produce a positive result or will it just yield contempt? Yvette talks about her relationship with her now fiancé and their journey to getting to this next phase. Amina shares more about her experience from being in a longer term relationship to now being engaged. Seyi shares more insight into the single life (spoiler alert...humbling).

Hitting Your Goals: Overrated or Nah?

Unpopular opinion: it's ok to not hit your goals. It's ok to step away from a goal and reevaluate. It's even ok to pivot from a goal. We get very honest about some of the goals we haven't hit, how they made us feel, and how we are focused on pushing forward.

Self Love Journeys | Why Self-Care Isn't a Fix for True Wellness

#SelfCare has been all over social media for the past several years, but maybe there's a reason it seems we need so much of it. Today we're sharing our own personal Self Love Journeys that have surpassed Self Care and made us realize that true self care and self love is a journey, not an activity. Weigh in on your own Self Love Journey and what you've learned at @sayso_collective on IG!

$4k vs. $14k vs. $45k...Who Saved What to be an InFLueNcEr

We are talking all things freelance + entrepreneurship and how we each prepared for the transition. From unexpectedly being let go of a job to the overwhelming feeling of wanting to quit, we share our individual stories of how we went from a traditional career to where we are now, and the tips that helped make the transition easier! And we answer the age old questions "is there ever really a 'right' time to make that leap"??

Hustle Culture & Why We Will Always Be "Team Sleep"

We've all been a victim to it. The constant push to hustle, hustle, hustle. The rhetoric that if we aren't working, then we somehow aren't fulfilling our potential (or our purpose). In this episode, we share how hustle culture has impacted our work as influencers and how it's shaped our personal lives. As we get deeper into the conversation, you'll hear our perspective on how we are actively working to not feed into the "grind or die" lifestyle, and what that actually looks like.
