Summary

Heyy!!

Even though it's a holiday, I'm still here sharing my thoughts and experiences with individual and collective self-care for Black women. This work is important to me and so, consider it a labor of love. My hope, seriously, is that you are able to slow down and listen to todays episode while taking full, deep breaths and sipping on something restorative like lemon balm tea or perhaps a matcha latte.

Let's get into todays episode! I want to share my thoughts on how, due in part to this healing work I've been doing, I've been able to bring awareness to some hurtful things that were said to me/about me when I was a child and then reframe it to something that feels more like MY truth.

Press play and let's get into it.

0:00.0	Hey, what's going on? You are listening to the Brown Girl self-care podcast. My
0:05.9	name is Bri Mitchell. I'm the host of the show as well as a self-care coach and
0:11.2	founder of Brown Girl self-care. What's going on? Happy Monday if this is the
0:17.5	day that you are listening to it, which coincidentally is Labor Day. And as I've
0:24.0	mentioned on Instagram, I am not laboring. I will not labor. I am not
0:29.8	laboring. You might be like, well, says you dropped a podcast episode today. I can
0:36.3	tell you that for me, typically, typically, this is not, well, I guess it's
0:44.3	technically labor. Let me let me back it up a little bit. I guess technically it's
0:47.7	labor, but it doesn't feel like labor to me. And maybe that's a whole different
0:54.0	podcast episode. But in any case, I'm glad that you're here. And what I would like
0:59.6	to do is invite you to if you're able to slow down and listen to this episode. I
1:05.5	know I get a lot of emails. Sometimes you're driving, you're on your way to work,
1:09.1	you're cleaning the house, you know, you're taking a walk or you're exercising,
1:13.4	et cetera. But if you're in a position to slow down and use this time as a form
1:19.2	of restoration, as an opportunity to just kind of tune in and slow down, maybe grab
1:28.5	some coffee, grab some tea, grab some water, light a candle, do what you need to do
1:32.3	this is, okay? But we're going to go ahead and get into this episode. So of course,
1:39.1	I want to talk a little bit more about healing. And I can tell you that there have been
1:44.6	some interesting things that have been happening in the last few days, few weeks,
1:50.0	few months when it comes to just how I view myself, how I view the world, how I interact
1:55.7	with others. And if you caught me on Instagram live, I talked about that a little bit. I believe
