Jada Pinkett Smith has released the first episode of her new webseries, “Red Table Talks.” The series follows an open and honest discussion between Willow, Jada and Jada’s mother, Adrienne Banfield Jones. Jada hope that other families are encouraged to participate in similar dialogues with their own family members.

In the first episode the ladies talk about what it means to be a good mother, the guilt Adrienne feels for her drug use and not being the best mother to Jada and Willow’s regrets over being famous.

Check out this very honest video below:

    They are so beautiful. This segment was beautiful, inspiring, and insightful. Honestly, I wish it was even longer! I could keep watching this for like another half-hour. I learned from what Jada was saying and a lot about them as individuals. If this is really going to become a webseries, I would love to see more episodes. In fact, this inspires me to bring all the women together in my family to have a dialogue.

    That was absolutely beautiful.  It just let’s you know that we are all human and we all feel pain, happiness, hurt, but through communication we can make it thorough and come out on the winning end which is LOVE.  I enjoyed the red table talk very much.

    I love this.  Nothing else is like this in terms of content.  This is what Oprah should have on her network.  This matters.

    So true. I hear from my mom all the time on how much she gave up or didn’t have because of us. So now we’re not supposed to have happiness  if she doesn’t have it. I love my mom and family with all my heart I would love to have this type of opportunity.

    Great ideal! My family would never be open to this. I would love to be able to do this.
