Brown Girl Self-Care

• Grinding And Hustling Is Not The "Work", Our Self-Care Is, So That's What I'm About To Do.

  This episode, what I'm doing for the next 30 days is going to sound crazy. I get it. It needs to be done though because I'm locking in on how I'm blooming versus worrying about laboring to earn money. In our culture 9-5'ing/grinding is where our energy primarily goes and if there is anything left we do a little tending to ourselves. I'm flipping the narrative for the next 30 days and making self-care the primary and working secondary. Listen in to learn more about the framework I'll be using.

• Centering Sisterhood Because Nobody Cares About Black Women But Us

  I tried recording this episode on Sunday and when I went to upload it, there was no audio. So I decided to hop onto Youtube Live on Monday morning and record it there. *Trigger Warning* In todays episode I'll be sharing about a young Black woman who unfortunately took her own life. The point of the share is to not only say her name, but to reinforce the idea of Black women staying Black Woman centered. No one cares about Black women the way that Black women do. We need each other.Our Sponsors:* Check out Bilt: https://joinbilt.com/selfcare* Check out Calm: https://calm.com/BGSC* Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/brown-girl-self-care/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

• Black Women Aren't Supposed to Do These Extreme Self-Care Acts

  I want to preface this episode with a couple of things:#1 – Extreme self-care isn’t about shock value. It’s about survival, liberation, and choosing yourself when everything around you says don’t.#2 – The choices I’m sharing in this episode may feel uncomfortable, even unthinkable, because Black women are socialized to endure instead of disrupt. But these choices are valid. They are powerful. And they are yours to claim.In this episode of the Brown Girl Self-Care Podcast, I’m talking about five extreme self-care moves that many of us are told we can’t choose:Cutting off a parentDeclining the caregiver roleChoosing not to have childrenLeaving the traditional churchInvesting in yourself firstTo live well we sometimes have to be extreme or disrupt the status quo.
