Why The Therapy "Bae"?
The word "bae" was selected as a common, popular term used among Millennials and younger generations to appeal to the public. It is not the intent or desire of The Therapy Bae, LLC to take away from the African American community or subvert them through the use of African American Vernacular English (AAVE). Kristin is not a person of color (POC) and is continually working on their journey of undoing and unlearning racism.
