Inspired by Mariah the Scientist. A vulnerable check-in on self-awareness and the quiet ways we self-destruct: overdoing it, staying where we don’t belong, telling ourselves lies that facts can’t seem to fix. Maya shares a turning point—learning to ask for help—and unpacks the “strong Black woman” cape she never asked to wear.
She closes with her notes for the week: I am enough. I am smart. I am a great friend. It is okay to ask for help when I need it.  Share yours and tag the pod to keep the conversation going.
