Welcome to a sponsored episode of Call Your Girlfriends.

A podcast for long-distance festies everywhere.

My name is Amina Tussaud.

And I'm Anne Friedman.

Today's episode is brought to you by P&G's My Black Is Beautiful campaign.

My black is beautiful celebrates the diverse collective beauty of black women

and encourages black women to define and promote our own beauty standard,

one that is an authentic reflection of our indomitable spirit.

Recognizing that beauty and self-confidence are intrinsically linked,

my black is beautiful is designed to ignite and support a sustained national conversation

by, for and about black women.

The way they are reflected in popular culture and how they serve as the catalyst for a movement

that affects positive change.

As part of P&G's long-standing commitment to touch and improve the lives of African-American women,

my black is beautiful began as an effort to target and uplift to these women and has now

transformed into a robust movement that gives black women the tools to help impact change.

On today's episode, I got the chance and actually really the honor to speak to some

inspiring US Bob's letting champions.

Here they are in their own words.

My name is Asia Evans.

I'm a breakman for the USA Women's Bob's a team in a two-time Olympian.

My name is Alana Myers-Taylor.
