Ever feel like you’re carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders—and smiling through it? From cultural expectations to marital roles, many women have silently subscribed to the Superwoman Complex—pushing through exhaustion, suppressing their needs, and wearing the cape like a badge of honor. We’re talking about this unspoken pressure and how trying to do it all is wrecking marriages and mental health. Sis… you don’t have to be everything to everyone. You were never meant to carry it all. This week on Chats from the Peak, we’re naming the Superwoman Complex—and giving you permission and practical tips from our girl Dr. Raquel Martin on how to burn the cape!!!

It’s May, which means it’s Mental Health Awareness Month and this episode is for our men— our husbands, brothers, uncles and fathers and there was no better person to help enlighten us then Licensed Therapist, Speaker, Author and friend of the show, Paul Bashea Williams! We’re unpacking what it means to carry the weight as a Black man—especially as a husband, father, and leader. We’re talking about unspoken pressures, emotional shutdowns, and John Henryism, the “hero complex” that makes so many brothers feel like they can’t ever let their guard down. 

But we’re not stopping there—we’re bringing the wives in, too. How can we show up for our men when they feel like they’re drowning but can’t say it out loud? How do we love them through the silence, the stress, and the struggle? We want to thank all of the men who make the burden look light, who carry without complaint and who strive for legacy. Thank you.

Everybody says, “Prepare for marriage!”—but let’s be real, is that even possible? In this episode of Chats from the Peak, we chop it up with gospel recording artist Niiella, who recently got married, to talk about what really goes into getting ready for the journey.

We’re keeping it real—because no book, sermon, or auntie’s advice can fully prepare you for the real thing. But here’s the twist: faith and obedience to God’s design for marriage? That’s the game-changer!!! We talk about what surrendering to God’s plan actually looks like, how to move from “getting ready” to being ready, and why some lessons can only be learned after you say, “I do.”

This episode is NONSTOP laughs, hard truths, and gems you don’t wanna miss! Whether you’re single, engaged, or already in the trenches, pull up!!!

KEEP UP WITH ALL THINGS NIIELLA— Niiella is an award winning gospel artist who has been featured on BET’s Sunday Best and has sung with gospel greats such as Joe Mettle. NiIella is a true worshipper and also has an acute ear for vocal training and launched VOBOX to help singers learn about their vocal health and develop their voices.

Loneliness is at an all-time high, but real talk—are we actually alone or just lacking real connection? 🤔💭 This week on Chats from the Peak, Dr. Lara and Memi chop it up with Abby Osei-Tutu, the co-founder of TribeMeets, a dope platform putting a dent in the loneliness epidemic by bringing individuals from the African Diaspora together to build real, authentic community. 🌍✊🏾

We’re getting into why so many of us feel isolated, how culture plays a role in our relationships, and what it really takes to find your tribe in a disconnected world. Oh, and did we mention Abby is a therapist?! She gives her clinical lens on the importance of communicating your desires, being vulnerable, and why we need people! 

Tribe Meets is committed to creating a vibrant cultural hub where individuals from the African diaspora can come together to celebrate their heritage, share experiences, and forge lasting connections. Their mission extends beyond dating, focusing on fostering a sense of belonging and unity within the community by creating a space for professionals, creatives, and entrepreneurs to connect and collaborate. Check them out here http://www.tribemeets.com or on IG @tribemeets
