Prioritize Yourself with Sheena Johnson

It's Ok to Grieve the Old You| Essay


Listen Later

In this deeply honest episode, we explore what it means to grieve the old version of yourself — the woman who survived by self-sacrificing, overgiving, staying silent, and carrying burdens that were never hers to hold.

Together, we unpack the conditioning many women, especially Black women, have inherited: the pressure to be strong, resilient, and endlessly available while neglecting our own wellbeing, rest, pleasure, and truth.

This episode is an invitation to release the versions of yourself built purely for survival. The version that settled, stayed quiet, abandoned her needs, and believed exhaustion was the price of worthiness.

Through reflection, healing, and gentle encouragement, this conversation reminds you that you no longer have to carry everything alone.

It’s time to grieve.
To release.
To make space for the woman you are becoming.

Because your blossoming is coming. 🤍
