Hey lady! How are you doing? We mean really doing? We know it can be hard to admit that you may be feeling an overwhelming mix of emotions as we deal with the current chaos in the world. That’s why, this week, Terri and Dr. Dom discuss the healing power of vulnerability and how when used with discernment can help you cultivate intimate and meaningful relationships that can help you ride through turbulent times with grace and joy.

We know many of you are spending your September being locked in so that the seeds you plant in you fourth quarter will yield a fruitful 2026, but we want you to take a pause and check in with your internal state. Are you watering yourself in ways that feel nourishing? It is evident that we’re going to need each other as the uncertainty increases.

Lady, this episode lays the background of how to access vulnerability skillfully. In part two, Dr. Dom and Terri offer the actionable insights to make vulnerability an authentic practice for you. Doing so not only benefits your relationships but everyone you come in contact with because you can walk assuredly that you operate from integrity.

Quote of the Day:
"Being a strong Black woman doesn’t mean that you can’t be vulnerable. It’s okay to cry. It’s okay if you’re having a bad day. It’s okay if some days you feel like giving up. It’s okay if you need to ask for help."
