Tina Knowles has been the Matriarch of her family for over four decades, and now the mama bear is bringing her knowledge to the masses.

On Tuesday (Oct. 29), Mama Tina announced that she is releasing her first-ever memoir, “Matriarch” set to arrive next Spring.

The news comes just days after Tina introduced the VP Kamala Harris at her campaign rally in Houston with her daughter Beyonce and bonus daughter Kelly Rowland.

Speaking on the book, Tina revealed:

I have always been a storyteller, and it’s something I learned from my mother. When I had a family of my own, I believed that my daughters needed to know where they came from in order to know where they were going. I’m now ready to share my story with all of you, so that we can all celebrate these themes of strength, motherhood, Black pride, and identity.

I am calling this book MATRIARCH because what inspires me is the wisdom that women pass on to each other, generation to generation—and the inner wisdom we long to uncover in ourselves. Even at 70 I am still learning valuable lessons—revelations that I wish that I would have had at 40 or even 20. I want to share this knowledge now, one to one with the reader, as we laugh and sometimes cry together through all the stages of our lives.

Beyonce also took to social media to tease the book, and playfully cautioned her mom to not spill too much tea.

Mama, I couldn’t be prouder. My love for you goes beyond what I can say. You put your heart into this book. I’m happy for you to share some of the stories that shaped you into who you are. To know you is to love you. But please don’t spill too much Mama Tea.
