Perfectionism, White Supremacy & the Pressure on Black Women to Lead Everything | Siobhan Speaks Social (Live Replay)

Live from the back porch with a new setup—y’all like it? In this episode, I reflect on the toxic grip of perfectionism, its deep ties to white supremacy, and how those expectations show up in social justice spaces—especially on the backs of Black women.

I speak on:

  • My personal journey from ministry to movement work

  • The burden of being expected to lead every cause

  • How performative politics and empty slogans waste our energy

  • The need for real plans and shared responsibility

  • Why we must stop idolizing perfection in our leaders
