Summary

In this episode, I'm getting honest about the moments when your spirit is no longer whispering, but instead she’s tapping you on the shoulder, side-eyeing you, and begging you to just sit down somewhere.

As Black women, we’re praised for pushing through, carrying everything, and keeping it all together. But this season is about something different: honoring your humanity, choosing ease, and learning to pause before life forces you to.

We’ll explore the 5 signs that show up when you’re out of alignment:

when you’re scattered instead of centered
drained instead of nourished
✨eactive instead of peaceful
doubting instead of grounded
and disconnected instead of intuitive
