My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Oftentimes, Black/African American women who seem to be "smashing it" professionally and socially are not allowed the space to express or even acknowledge emotions. Not only are we bombarded by microaggressions and misogyny, but we are also told anecdotes such as "never let them see you sweat" or "you're a Strong Black Woman". While well-meaning, these phrases can create a destructive narrative that our thoughts and feelings don't matter and should be ignored. Being the "strong friend" has a negative impact on our physical, emotional, and spiritual health. I can personally attest to this in my former "corporate era". Through my own self-work and journey, I realized my purpose was to help other women to make a shift and provide a safe space to reconnect with their emotional body and transform into the fulfilled woman they seek to become.
