Welcome back to the podcast! Today we’re talking about something that has shaped the lives of so many Black women: the idea of being the “Strong Black Woman.” We’ve been told that strength means holding everything together. Being the fixer. The caregiver. The one everyone depends on. The one who keeps pushing no matter how exhausted she is. And while strength is beautiful, what happens when strength becomes a prison? What happens when we’re so busy surviving that we forget how to rest, receive, or simply be? Today’s conversation is about redefining what strength looks like. Because being soft doesn’t mean being weak. Being vulnerable doesn’t mean being incapable. And resting doesn’t mean you’ve given up. Sometimes the strongest thing a woman can do is put down what was never hers to carry. Tune in and share your comment!
