Ep 6: Interrupting Shame and Reclaiming Self-Sovereignty with EbonyJanice
In this compelling episode, we sit down with EbonyJanice, a free woman on a love journey and founder of the Free People Project and Emma's Legacy Foundation. EbonyJanice shares a little about her journey of becoming a first-generation interrupter, breaking free from societal norms, religious constraints, and patriarchal ideologies to embrace her true self. Through candid exchanges with Nikki about her personal struggles, radical self-sovereignty, and the importance of intentional community, EbonyJanice offers profound insights and practical tools for anyone in pursuit of a liberated life. Listen to this episode to explore the power of choice, the significance of rituals, and the journey toward love and freedom in a world that often demands self-abandonment and compliance.
