  • Election Reflections and Actions for the Next Four Years

    After the recent election, I’m once again processing a wave of disappointment—a feeling many Black women know all too well. This isn’t just about politics; it’s about being reminded, once again, that we can be twice as good, twice as qualified, and still fall short in a system that rewards mediocrity and hate. In this episode, I’ll share my reflections on the election aftermath and it’s impact on marginalized communities, the importance of boundaries and self-preservation, and actionable steps we can take over the next four years.
