Cultivating H.E.R. Space: Uplifting Conversations for the Black Woman
Hey lady! This week Dr. Dom and Terri welcome Dr. Kemi Doll, a physician, surgeon, researcher, advocate and author of A Terrible Strength: The Hidden Crisis of the Black Womb & Your Survival Guide to Healing to sit down and talk to us about the importance of caring for our wombs at all stages of life. Dr. Kemi provides an insightful and informative lens as to how the impact of adequate care – and the neglect of such care – can shape Black women’s reproductive health and overall quality of life. Far too often, Black women’s reproductive health is reduced to the facilitation of producing babies and little more. However, there is a vast array of reproductive issues that affect Black women and those issues are not given the spotlight that they need – particularly uterine cancer, the fastest growing cancer in Black women. Dr. Kemi gives a historical review of how we collectively arrived to a place where not only is Black women’s maternal health in peril, but we are now facing aggressive concerns in other womb matters. The good news is that with once you are armed with good information you can turn those debilitating aches and pains into a plan to advocate for your health and your needs. Lady, you’re going to want to pay close attention because Dr. Kemi is going to lay out the tell-tale symptoms that let you know you’re experiencing abnormal womb health. Good health isn’t given to you, it’s something that you tend to and advocate for your entire lifetime. We know as a Black woman you may be accustomed to pushing through all the random and weird body sensations you may experience but it’s time to tune in and make sure that you’re listening to your temple and treating it as such. We’re sending you love and positive energy, lady! Quote of the Day: "To all who cramp, bleed, and endure- and those who love us. It's time for a new story." – Dr. Kemi Doll This episode is brought to you by VB Health, supplements that work. Check out Soaking Wet for vaginal health.

Supercharged by a by-election victory in Aberdeen South and Starmer's resignation, Kemi Badenoch delivered a drive-by at PMQs today. She took aim at members of Starmer's cabinet in succession: Rachel Reeves, Ed Miliband and Bridget Phillipson. Starmer's line is that he is handing over the country in a better position than he found it; Badenoch's is that, if it is all going so well, why is he resigning? She has a point.She also highlighted the spectacle of many in Starmer's government posing for a photo with Andy Burnham on his return to Westminster yesterday. The Prime Minister should feel ‘betrayed', she said. Again, she has a point. Is this Badenoch at her best? And how will she fare against Burnham?Oscar Edmondson speaks to Isabel Hardman and Noa Hoffman.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

It is about knowing exactly when to wait so you can break the cycle of last-minute panic without dropping your high standards.

This week on the podcast we are joined by Dr. Kemi Doll, a physician, surgeon, researcher, double board-certified gynecologist and oncologist, and founding director of the Gynecologic Research and Cancer Equity Center at the University of Washington. After 16 years of training and over $200,000 in student loan debt, she turned her personal and professional experience into a mission to change how Black women are treated in gynecologic care. In this episode, Dr. Kemi breaks down how conditions like heavy menstrual bleeding, endometriosis, and fibroids are not just health issues; they are career and financial ones. Women with endometriosis can miss up to 60 to 65 days of work a year, while women with heavy bleeding often show up to work functioning far below their capacity, a phenomenon called presenteeism. She shares the clinical signs that your period is not normal, the exact language to use at your gynecology appointment to be taken seriously, and how to find a provider who will actually listen. We also get into her own story of resilience, how she used the NIH Loan Repayment Program to eliminate her debt while building her research career, and why she started a coaching company after discovering she was being paid 30% less than her colleagues. In this episode, Dr. Kemi shares: How untreated womb conditions like fibroids and endometriosis silently drain Black women's productivity and earning potential The clinical signs that your period is not normal and what you can do about it How to advocate for yourself at a gynecology appointment, including the exact phrases that get doctors to take your symptoms seriously How she paid off over $200,000 in student loans using the NIH Loan Repayment Program while building her research career + more What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonus The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: NIH Loan Repayment Program: lrp.nih.gov Check out "A Terrible Strength" by Dr. Kemi Doll Check out the FIRE Calc Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

⚡️Click Here To Text Monique!This week, Monique sits down with Dr. Kemi Dole, a gynecologic oncologist, surgeon, and debut author, for a conversation that is equal parts education, confession, and wake-up call.Dr. Dole's new book, A Terrible Strength: The Hidden Crisis of the Black Womb and Your Survival Guide to Healing (Penguin Random House, May 2026), does what most medical books never do: it tells the truth in plain language, with warmth, and without talking down to you. In this episode, Monique shares how it changed her relationship to her own body, and Dr. Dole walks us through why so many Black women are bleeding too much, dismissed too quickly, and left to suffer in silence for far too long.They get into the real numbers behind heavy periods and anemia, what your bleeding is actually telling you, and why the medical system has been so slow to listen. Dr. Dole also opens up about her own reckoning, including missing her own endometriosis diagnosis until she was on the operating table.The conversation closes on the concept of womb sisterhood: the idea that healing this well-kept secret should not be a solo effort, and that the women in your life might be waiting for someone to simply ask.GUEST INFODr. Kemi Doll, physician, surgeon, advocate, career coach, and a double-board certified gynecologic oncologist and uterine cancer scientist | Website | Book | Podcast | InstagramGEMS DROPPED“I want women to have better gynecologic health. I don't want us to continue thinking about gynecologic health as though, “as long as it's not killing you, it's probably fine.” - Dr. Kemi Doll“I didn't realize how much I saw myself as a site of production, until you taught me that the unpregnant womb had its own life and role to play. And that my bleeding spoke an intricate language and that my well being was a part of that language.” - Monique R, Shields“There's something very powerful about receiving the message so young that, “when you suffer, be quiet about it.” That message carries forward in a way that goes beyond gynecology and womb health. And that is what I want us to heal from.” - Dr. Kemi Doll“I invoke this concept of womb sisterhood, which means having one or two people in our lives we can share these things with so when you go to the doctor, you have someone who can come with you. you. There isn't embarrassment. There doesn't have to be silencing. These are such vulnerable appointments and having someone there who has your back can make a real difference. It also helps with accountability.” - Dr. Kemi Doll“Especially for those of us born with a womb or gendered as female, I believe this is one of the first ways we learn to silence our bodies and hide. We teach girls how to have a period that nobody knows about. That's what we define as success.. This is how you hide it. This is how you very modestly go to the bathroom so nobody knows. And even when women talk about their most embarrassing moments, it's always somebody basically found out I was on my period.” - Dr. Kemi Doll“This book has changed my relationship to my body entirely.” - Monique R.

In this week's episode of Your Unapologetic Career, Kemi brings you an encore conversation with Cathy Mazak of the Academic Writing Amplified podcast about her new book, A Terrible Strength, and the journey of moving from physician, researcher, and professor to debut author. Kemi pulls back the curtain on the writing and publishing process, from developing the book proposal to finding the right agent, building a writing team, protecting time to write, and preparing for the full-time work of promoting the book. This conversation is a grounded look at what it means to bet on yourself, prepare for the season you say you want, and trust that big dreams are worth the hard work they require.

What happens when the womb is treated as separate from the rest of women's health? In this episode of hol+, Dr. Taz sits down with Dr. Kemi Doll, double board-certified gynecologic oncologist, equity scientist, researcher, coach, and author of A Terrible Strength: The Hidden Crisis of the Black Womb and Your Survival Guide to Healing, for a powerful conversation about womb health, uterine cancer, fibroids, HRT, health equity, and why so many women are still being taught to normalize symptoms that deserve care.Together, they explore why womb health is not only about pregnancy, fertility, or menopause, but a lifelong part of women's physical, emotional, hormonal, and whole-body health. Dr. Doll shares how her grandmother's death in childbirth, her mother's near-death experience, and her own work as a gynecologic cancer surgeon shaped her mission to bring the uterus back into the center of women's health.Dr. Taz and Dr. Doll also discuss why uterine cancer is rising, why Black women are twice as likely to die after a uterine cancer diagnosis, and how gaps in research, screening, and diagnostic tools may leave women of color especially vulnerable. They unpack the role of ultrasound, endometrial thickness, post-menopausal bleeding, and why women need clearer conversations with their providers when something feels off.This conversation also takes a closer look at the explosion of hormone replacement therapy, or HRT, and the questions every woman with a uterus should be asking. Dr. Doll explains why estrogen without proper progesterone protection can increase uterine cancer risk, why some women may not understand the role progesterone plays, and why monitoring the uterus matters when using hormones.If you're listening to this and thinking, “I know something is off in my body, but I don't know where to start,” join the Circle here:

For the second week in a row, PMQs comes in light of a disturbing instance of violent crime. Last week, ministers were recoiling at the shocking bodycam footage from Henry Novak's murder, and this week comes in the context of a knife attack by a Sudanese asylum seeker in Belfast.Kemi Badenoch was impressive again, not just in condemning the Belfast violence but also pressing the PM on the much-delayed defence investment plan. She seems to have completed a remarkable turnaround in her fortunes: she's polling well, looks much more assured and is taking the fight to Labour and Reform.

Being "First, Only, Different" in academic medicine and public health forces us to stay incredibly sharp. We have to remain alert just to ensure we aren't shortchanged on resources, pay, or structural support. But over time, this defensive mindset creeps into areas where it doesn't belong. When you are constantly on guard at your institution, you naturally start fixating on what everyone else is doing with their research, funding, and careers. It is an exhausting trap. In this encore episode, Kemi breaks down why this happens and how staying in survival mode is quietly derailing your peace of mind and your progress toward a sustainable career. Applications are now open for the July 2026 cohort of Get That Grant®. The wait is over! If you've been thinking about joining us and are ready to get clear on what matters most for your career and build a strategy that reflects that clarity, now is the time.

The Prime Minister and Hampshire's Chief Constable insist there is no two-tier policing. But Hampshire Police's own documents, in black and white, explicitly state that officers must not treat people the same or be colourblind. Officers who underwent the force's mandatory DEI training reported feeling pressured — afraid to say the wrong thing. One in five feared being rejected for speaking their minds. Is this institutionalised groupthink running through policing, the NHS, the civil service, and more?Brendan O'Neill argues that Keir Starmer is not protecting Henry Nowak's legacy — he is using it as a political shield to deflect scrutiny from the very policies that shaped this tragedy. Nigel Farage was heckled in the Commons while bringing up many people's experience of two-tier policing. Yet in 2020, the same political class praised Black Lives Matter rage from the rooftops.Kemi Badenoch, fresh from a meeting with Henry's family, makes the case for sweeping away identity politics entirely — and explains why consistency under the law, not special treatment for any group, is the only path forward.Plus: Lord Mann's report recommends banning all political badges in the NHS — and Julia asks why anyone ever thought that was acceptable in the first place.Julia Hartley-Brewer broadcasts on Talk from Monday to Thursday, 10AM to 1PM.Available on YouTube and streaming platforms, along with DAB+ radio and your smart speaker.

Ever wondered what it's really like to grow up competing for a billionaire media or music empire? Or how the "perfect" family sitcoms of the 90s shaped our real-world sibling expectations? Welcome back to the second part of Catherine Carr's conversation with Kemi Alemoru, acclaimed journalist and Head of Editorial Content at Glamour UK. They are still unpacking the siblings we've watched on TV, in Music, and popular culture. Catherine and Kemi share their mutual love of TV's most toxic family, the Roys from Succession where the siblings trauma-bond after surviving a domineering father. They dissect the "eldest boy" syndrome, and the constant, exhausting battle for their parent's affection and empire. They also discuss The Jacksons, and their impact as a family and musical geniuses. Kemi shares how the shiny, aspirational family units presented in classic sitcoms like The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and My Wife and Kids provided a crucial blueprint for her own upbringing. And they touch on other cult siblings, the Bennet sisters from Pride and Prejudice and the dysfunctional dynamics of Arrested Development. This is a sharp, insightful, and totally riveting conversation about the pop culture siblings we love to analyse, and the real-life family roles we can't escape.

The Labour leadership contest may be rumbling on in the background, but today Coffee House turns to the Conservatives – and whether Kemi Badenoch can really revive a party still reeling from electoral collapse.Her allies argue that Badenoch is beginning to cut through: from her conference speech to her response to Rachel Reeves's Budget, and her decision to sack Robert Jenrick. Her personal ratings have improved, even as the Tory brand remains deeply damaged. But is that enough? Can Badenoch turn the Conservatives into a serious vehicle for change? Is the Tory brand beyond repair? And could the party eventually find itself forced into some kind of deal with Reform?Tim Shipman is joined by Noa Hoffman and Boris Johnson's former director of communications Lee Cain to discuss Kemi's dilemma – and whether the Conservative party is dead, or merely resting.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Hands up if you've learnt all about families from the Kardashians? Ross and Monica on Friends? This week on Relatively, Catherine Carr is joined by acclaimed journalist and Head of Editorial Content at Glamour UK, Kemi Alemoru, to unpack the siblings we've watched on TV, in films, and seen in popular culture. Kemi, the youngest of three girls (and self-proclaimed "baby"), shares hilarious stories from her own female-dominated household. From her dad staging a Lord of the Flies-style boardroom intervention to solve a sisterly argument to a family healing exercise that nearly started a forest fire, Kemi proves that real-life sisterhood is just as dramatic as reality TV. The episode takes a deep dive into the ultimate modern dynasty: the Kardashians. Kemi and Catherine explore the psychological basis for their sibling rivalry, tracing their evolution from a fun, chaotic sisterhood to a billionaire empire where exclusionary WhatsApp group chats and physical fights expose deep rifts. They also draw fascinating parallels between the Kardashians and England's original 1930s "It Girls", the Mitford sisters. The conversation touches on how extreme political differences and contrasting lifestyles can fracture even the tightest blood bonds, whether you are a high-society communist or a reality TV star. Plus, Kemi breaks down the iconic, highly-strung dynamic of Ross and Monica from Friends, and why shared houses in your 20s can create a "chosen family" that transcends DNA. This is a funny, sharp, and totally riveting conversation about the pop culture siblings we love to analyse, and the real-life family roles we can't escape.

Black women face higher rates of uterine fibroids compared to white women. They’re less likely to get accurate diagnoses for endometriosis. And they’re twice as likely to die from uterine cancer than white women. Dr. Kemi Doll considers these disparities part of the evidence for a broader health crisis in gynecological care for Black women. Why hasn’t the medical community done more to address these problems? And how can patients and practitioners navigate a system that consistently overlooks Black women? Doll's new book, "A Terrible Strength: The Hidden Crisis of the Black Womb and Your Survival Guide to Healing,” works to answer those questions. Guest: Dr. Kemi Doll, a professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Washington and the author of "A Terrible Strength."

In this episode, Kemi sits down with Magogodi oaMphela Makhene of Madame Speaker Says for a conversation that will reframe everything you thought you knew about excellence, authority, and who gets to tell your story. They get into why working hard and letting your work "speak for itself" is quietly costing you, and why brilliant women who stay silent about their intentions get written out of their own story. Kemi shares what she finally stopped doing that unlocked her authority, what it actually cost her to build in public, and why fearlessness is a scam and what to do instead. She also takes us inside the journey behind her book, A Terrible Strength: The Hidden Crisis of the Black Womb and Your Survival Guide to Healing, a science-backed, deeply personal framework to help all women, especially Black women, recognize their body's signals, unlearn the normalization of pain, and demand the equitable, life-saving care they deserve.

KING'S SPEECH SICK PANTOMIME: Starmer Defeated | Kemi on Fire! #JonGaunt #jongauntTV #live #KingsSpeech #Starmer #KemiBadenoch #NigelFarage #UKPolitics #GeneralElection What we witnessed today in the House of Commons wasn't a serious plan for the country—it was pure, unadulterated pantomime. A sick, useless waste of time that ignores the reality on our streets. Keir Starmer looks like a man who won't even be in charge by the end of the week, let alone the end of the year. He's a squatter in Downing Street, presiding over a list of promises that we all know will never happen. The whole circus should have been cancelled. While Kemi Badenoch was absolutely on fire today, it's clear what the British public actually wants: REAL change. Not the scripted theatre of the main parties, but the actual agenda being set by Nigel Farage. He's the one speaking for the people while the "panto" season drags on in Westminster. It's time to cut the nonsense short. Starmer is finished. We need a General Election, and we need it NOW. What did YOU think of the King's Speech? Was it a farce or a future? Let's get stuck in—have your say in the comments below!

It's publication day! Today, Kemi is celebrating the release of A Terrible Strength and taking a moment to reflect on what it took to bring this book into the world. From the emotional weight of writing and deciding what stories to tell, to navigating a new industry and the impact of success on relationships, she shares what was hard, what mattered, and why it was all worth it. She also breaks down what this book actually is, who it is for, and why it is meant to create a true before-and-after in how we understand Black women's health. This is not just a book launch. It is an invitation into deeper awareness, better care, and a different level of responsibility for how we show up for ourselves and each other.

Dr. Kemi Doll brings together her personal journey and her years of research to expose the hidden crisis of the Black womb. She speaks the truths many have lived but few have named."

So many women have been praised for being strong, but what happens when that strength teaches us to ignore our bodies? In this episode, Dr. Stephanie Hack MD, MPH sits down with Dr. Kemi Doll, MD, MSCR for a powerful conversation about womb health, uterine cancer, Black women's health, and the difference between surviving and truly being cared for. You'll leave with a clearer understanding of what your body may be telling you and the courage to demand the care you deserve.https://ladypartsdoctor.comhttps://kemidoll.com/
Let's get something straight: women's healthcare is broken. But not equally broken. In this unapologetically raw and necessary conversation, Nicole Kalil sits down with Dr. Kemi Doll — physician, gynecologic oncologist, researcher, and author of A Terrible Strength — to expose the systemic failures in gynecological care, especially for Black women. This isn't a “wellness trends” conversation. This is about health inequity, medical bias, reproductive injustice, and the dangerous normalization of women's pain. Because here's the truth: when one group of women is dismissed, denied care, and dying at higher rates… it's not just their problem. It's a system-wide failure that impacts all of us. They break down: The systemic crisis in gynecology and why womb health is massively underfunded and under-researched Why conditions like fibroids, endometriosis, and uterine cancer are ignored The dangerous myth of the “strong Black woman” and how that “strength” is costing lives How medical bias and racism show up in real diagnoses, treatment delays, and mortality rates The difference between real health education vs. wellness industry BS How ALL women play a role in demanding better care This episode will challenge you. It might piss you off. Good. It should. Because we don't get to claim progress for women while some of us are still being ignored, misdiagnosed, and dying from treatable conditions. And we don't get to call it “woman's work” until it works for all of us. Thank you to our sponsors! Visit Upwork.com right now and post your job for free!

Send us Fan MailThe job can send you to the hardest places on earth, then expect you to come home and act like nothing followed you back.We talk with Kemmi Sadler, a retired supervisory special agent from the U.S. State Department's Diplomatic Security Service, about what two decades of protective missions, investigations, and overseas tours can do to your inner life. From her early years in local law enforcement to contracting overseas after 9/11 and then serving across posts like Iraq, Afghanistan, El Salvador, Mexico, and Washington, DC, Kemi lays out the real-world stressors that build over time: constant moves, family complications, and the relentless requirement to stay sharp.One story becomes a turning point, opening the door to survivor's guilt and the kind of grief that can linger for years when it never gets fully processed. We also dig into a barrier so many first responders recognize instantly: the fear that counseling could trigger “fitness for duty” questions or jeopardize a security clearance. When your identity is built around being the tough one, asking for help can feel like risking everything. We compare peer support, resilience training, and the idea of routine mental health wellness visits that work like a checkup rather than a crisis response.We close with the shock of retirement and why turning in credentials can feel like losing membership in a world that once gave you status, safety, and a clear sense of self. If you care about first responder mental health, trauma recovery, and the transition out of service, this conversation will stay with you.Subscribe, share this with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more first responders can find these stories.Here is how to reach Kemmi: www.klsadler.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/kemmisadler/https://www.facebook.com/klsadlerhttps://www.instagram.com/klsadler_/www.nonasway.comhttps://www.facebook.com/NonaTheWonderDog/https://www.instagram.com/nonas_way_/DeemedFit: First Responder OwnedWe are a first responder owned company looking to get first responders in the best mental shape.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

By rethinking what a 'successful' career path looks like, she pushes back against the usual judgments we face.
