   Ep 70: Celebrate: Why Celebrating Yourself Is An Act of Resistance

   In this episode, I unpack the historical, brain-based, social, and political reasons why high-achievers, and Black women in particular, struggle to take ownership of their wins. Drawing on Dr. Joy DeGruy’s work on Post-Traumatic Slave Syndrome, we look at how minimizing our success started as a protective survival mechanism to avoid standing out or being separated from community.

   Ep 69: Celebrate: Breaking the Cycles You Carried from Childhood

   In this episode, I get vulnerable about a massive revelation I had recently. As a recovering people-pleaser and the daughter of a textbook narcissist, I learned early on to shape-shift, over-give, and manage relationships to keep the peace. Last month, I realized I was repeating that exact childhood pattern in my business in Lisbon, giving away so much that I was becoming resentful. Instead of spiraling, I got excited. Recognizing the pattern gave me the exact opportunity I needed to change it, set real boundaries, and include myself in my vision of justice.

   Ep 68: Celebrate: Building Self-Trust Beyond Other People’s Approval

   Lately, when I hold space for women asking about their relationships, the Justice card keeps coming out. The message is always about doing what is fair and right, but I notice that the person I am reading for rarely includes themselves in their vision of justice. As a recovering people-pleaser, I know this pattern intimately. I naturally balance all sides of a story, but I had to learn that to truly balance the scales, I have to put my own wants, needs, and desires into the equation too.
