On this week's episode, The Black Woman's Confidant welcomes Dr. Nikia Smith to share her journey with burnout and how she healed from the exhausting hustle culture. Dr. Nikia is a practicing, board-certified anesthesiologist, a wellness coach, and the founder of She Is Fire Forged, a wellness brand supporting high-achieving women of color through burnout recovery and radical rest. After over a decade in medicine, she knows firsthand what it's like to chase the dream, hit every milestone, and still struggle with self-worth. Dr. Nikia shares vital insights on sustainable goal-setting, reclaiming personal autonomy, achieving success without sacrifice, and the core belief that rest is a fundamental right, not a reward.
