Hey there! Welcome to Episode 104 of the Attract and Stand Out podcast! I’m thrilled to have Brenda Barbour with me today. She’s the co-host of the Body Wealth Podcast, and we’re diving into a conversation packed with inspiration, health insights, and some really personal stories that will motivate you to take charge of your well-being.

Here’s a sneak peek at what we’ll chat about:

You won’t want to miss this uplifting episode—it’s sure to inspire you toward a healthier, more fulfilling life. So, let’s jump right in and tune in now!

Sisters Brenda Barbour and Elaine Curry created the Body Wealth podcast to expand access to conversations Black women have about health and healthcare. In each episode, the sisters chat with one guest to hear about an experience that was meaningful to her mental or physical health. Episode topics have included imposter syndrome, childbirth, hypothyroidism, medical power of attorney, anxiety, body image, osteoporosis, and much more. The podcasters aim to build connections, support their community, and elevate Black women’s stories. These informal conversations about personal experiences can more powerfully inspire action than data or expert presentations. The sisters hope to help more women have the tools to be the best possible advocates for their own health and ultimately contribute to reducing the inequity in health outcomes for Black women.
