Summary

Brown Girl Self-Care is where Black women reclaim our wholeness and power in a world that demands our labor but denies our humanity. Here, the care of ourselves—and the care for each other—become sacred acts of justice, powerful ways of honoring our humanity in a world that doesn’t.

First things first! I want to invite you to join me on May 14th at 7pm CDT for the "Take The Mic, Take up Space!" Podcasting 101 Workshop for Black women. You can sign up right here. This is a virtual event, being held on Zoom, that I'm hosting where I'll teach you how to get your podcast started, no more excuses. If you've been looking for a sign to start using your voice, this is it.

Now, on to todays episode. I decided to let chatgpt give me a prompt that would help me do some self-reflection and it didn't disappoint. I wasn't sure that I would share this when I hit record because this was a personal note that I created for myself to process my thoughts on fear + self-worth. I'm sharing this because I want YOU to trust your voice. It's hard to trust your voice if you are searching for the perfect thing to say or the perfect thing to feel. Healing is not about an aesthetic, it's about being real, raw and unfiltered. Using your voice can be a great step to becoming a place of safety for yourself and this is so important.

Don't be afraid to use the prompt in todays episode to see what comes up for you.

Let’s take this journey together—we are worthy of this care.

0:00.0	Hey, hey, what's going on? You're listening to the Brown Girl Self Care podcast. My name is Bree. I am the host of the show, as well as the founder of Brown Girl Self Care. Brown Girl Self Care is a platform and space of intentional healing, joy, rest, and abundance for black women. I have a special episode for you today. I typically like to record from my microphone.
0:25.9	I usually know what I'm going to talk about. Today I didn't do that. I want to share with you
0:30.1	a little sneak peek or slip behind the curtain of kind of like what I am doing in my healing
0:36.2	process, especially as it pertains to my sense of self-worth.
0:40.6	And also the fears that I still have that I am trying to, or not that I'm trying to, but that I am kind of like working through since fear was a huge part of my foundation for a very long time of my life.
0:52.0	I told you in the past episodes this year that 2025 is coming
0:55.3	differently for me. I'm taking bolder action. I'm trusting myself more. I'm allowing myself to
1:01.6	expand and show up instead of shrinking and pulling back and hiding myself, hiding my voice.
1:07.1	And so me sharing this with you, this clip that you're going to hear after we're done here,
1:12.3	it's actually a very bold move because it's obviously not going to be edited.
1:17.1	It's done on my iPhone, like I said before, so it's not going to sound as crisp.
1:22.0	But I think that the message today is really going to resonate with you if you're a black woman who is really in a place where she's done with allowing fear to dictate what she does, what she doesn't do,
1:34.1	how she lives her life, how she feels about herself. If you're ready to trust in yourself more,
1:38.7	if you're ready to trust your voice, trust your journey, this is definitely an episode for you,
1:43.7	okay? Now, before I go to the
1:45.2	next part, I do want to quickly say that in case you have not heard on May 14th, 2025 at 7 p.m.
1:52.2	Central Daylight Time, I am doing finally, as promised, for several months now, the Podcasting
2:00.5	101 Workshop specifically for black women who are ready to use their voice.
2:09.3	You are ready to stop hiding yourself.
2:11.6	You know you want to be a content creator or you know you want to be a podcaster, but you don't know where to start.
2:16.6	You don't know what tools to use.
2:18.2	You really don't have that sense of in your mind that you can do this, which actually you can. You can. You can do this. You can become a podcaster.
