Do Not Call Me Resilient w/Francesca Andre


Listen Later

Quickly bouncing back and being strong during hard times, is no longer a badge of honor. As a matter of fact, it never was. During today‘s episode, award-winning filmmaker and photographer, and author Francesca Andre shares her perspectives about what we get wrong about resilience. We also talk about the dangers of "microwave healing" and  how never seeing our elders show emotion during our childhood, affected our personal and professional lives.

 
Plus, Francesca shares how she’s teaching her son the importance of embracing all emotions and the ways she juggles motherhood and business projects.
 
Francisco Andre is an award-winning filmmaker, photographer, TEDx Speaker, and author of “I am Phenomenal Black Boy. She’s been featured in the New York Post, Daily Mail, Ebony Magazine, Essence, & Forbes.
