Cultivating H.E.R. Space: Uplifting Conversations for the Black Woman
Hey lady! We know that the daily onslaught of the news of these times can be distressing and difficult to ignore. There are genuine reasons to feel alarm during the current administration but we are blessed to have a deep history of having visionaries, luminaries, and trailblazers offer a blueprint of how to imagine brighter tomorrows.Octavia Butler is one of the most prescient artists of our time but her life was lived somewhat in obscurity, only coming to prominence long after her death. Yet, her writing gave way to world-building where weird, strange, genius Black women could write themselves into the future by being present with their experience. Dr. Susana M. Morris, a waymaker in her own right as a founding member of the Crunk Feminist Collective and author of Positive Obsession: The Life and Times of Octavia Butler, explores how Octavia's life circumstances, disciplined writing practice, and passion birthed works that offer a clear-eyed examination of society and culture while also giving full permission for Black women to indulge our imaginations for a beautiful future that includes us!Join Terri and Dr. Dom as they have a spirited discussion with Susana about Octavia Butler and her powerful artistry. While Octavia made it clear that she was not a prophet; she was so deeply connected to her dreams and words that she manifested a body of work that has inspired generations of future trailblazers and wayshowers. Quote of the Day:"Black women writers are necessary so that Black women can define and depict their own experiences rather than being objects in the stories of others." – Octavia Butler Where to find Susana Morris:Website: Susanmorris.comBook: Positive Obsession: The Life and Times of Octavia ButlerInstagram: @susiemayeTwitter (X): @iamcrunkadelicThreads: @susiemaye Goal Mapping Starter GuideCultivating H.E.R.

Ready to stop forcing your days into a 24-hour hustle that doesn't fit your body? We sit down with Katrina, creator of the Create Her Planner, to reframe planning around lunar phases, seasonal energy, and the real rhythms women experience across life stages, including perimenopause and postmenopause. This is a practical, grounded conversation about matching tasks to timing so your best work happens when your brain and body are ready.We walk through how the planner blends a lunar calendar, weekly energy “batteries,” and focused prompts for money moves, marketing, and deep work. White space and mandalas shift planning from stress to clarity in five quiet minutes. You'll hear stories from women using the system to write books faster, launch offers in the right window, and protect recovery days without guilt. We also talk candidly about privacy, why a paper-first tool keeps your health data in your hands, and how to communicate softer days with partners and teams so support shows up where it counts.Katrina shares what's new for 2026: the Inner Circle planning community, Create Her Rewire coaching to build businesses that honor energy cycles, and intimate Reset Weekends, including a small-group, all-inclusive gathering in El Salvador. If you've ever wondered why some weeks flow while others fight you, this episode offers a clear framework to test: track your energy, align with lunar phases, and let your data guide when to sell, strategize, or simply rest. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs permission to slow down, and leave a review telling us your strongest season or moon phase.

Hey lady! You know like we know that sometimes we are…right. It's never about being right, it's just the truth that sometimes we have opinions that are actually right even if they may be controversial.This week, Terri and Dr. Dom offer a cheeky look at some real “hear us out” situations that will possibly get them cancelled. The two offer some common sense perspectives about things we may have been socialized to believe that are no longer true (White looks just as good in the winter as it does in the Summer) and some that we have been socialized to believe that were actually never true (sugar belongs in a lot of places…just not grits).

I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode. Text us here...In this special crossover episode, I'm sharing something close to my heart — Empathy in Action: Expanding Our Capacity to Care — from my new podcast experiment, Brave Moves.Yes, you heard that right... This is my newest project, and I'm inviting you to come along for the experiment. Brave Moves is my journey of starting, launching, and growing a podcast from scratch, using the same tools, systems, and strategies I teach my clients every day. My goal is to show you behind the scenes what it looks like to take action before you feel “ready.”In this episode, we're diving into empathy, what it really means, why it matters, and how it changes the way we lead, love, and show up in the world.I share a recent experience that made me reflect on how quickly we are to judge others and how assumptions can limit our ability to care. When I saw a post about helping people who lost their SNAP benefits, and the comments that followed, it hit me how much our empathy has to stretch, not just for those who “look” like us, but for those whose stories we don't fully know.This episode will remind you that empathy isn't weakness, it's a strength. It's leadership. And it's the heartbeat of confidence and connection.You'll learn: • Why empathy is a leadership superpower (not a soft skill) • How assumptions and comparisons shrink our compassion • Simple, grounded ways to practice empathy every day • How to take small, brave actions that expand your capacity to careEmpathy doesn't mean doing everything. It means doing something. It means saying, “I see you, and I care.”Brave Move: Do one act of empathy today — donate, listThis is an invitation to join a supportive community of purpose-driven entrepreneurs who are creating an impact in the world.A mastermind is a community of peers who exchange ideas, provide support, and offer sound advice for running a successful business.Join the Confident YOU Mastermind now at https://goconfidentlyservices.myflodesk.com/confidentyoumastermindSupport the showOther helpful resources for you: For more about me and what I do, check out my website.

Hey lady! In these trying times connecting with community is more important than ever. Community is not just your close friends or even your family. Community is the place where you live, work, and play. It contains history, wisdom and can thrive when tended to well. That's why Dr. Dom and Terri are thrilled to welcome M. Simone Boyd and Andrea Tudhope, hosts of the podcast We Are North Nashville, as they discuss the power of collecting the stories of the elders in the community to create a beautiful tapestry of legacy, love, and pride.Inspired by a series of tragic events that occurred during the pandemic, Simone set out to capture the stories of the elders in her life before it was too late. But, as she soon found out the work was worthy but the emotional labor would take a toll if she didn't recruit help for her noble mission. Together, with her co-hosts, Andrea and Steve Haruch, the three embarked on a journey of bridge building, record setting, and community preservation that has led to a fulfilling audio project the residents of North Nashville can feel proud of. If you're in a space where you know you need to build community and you want to contribute to the community you live in but don't know where to get started tune in to today's episode. Andrea and Simone offer their perspective on how approaching people and conversations from a heart-centered place can get all of us back to a place where we peacefully coexist and thrive together.

What if the sadness you're feeling isn't just about being single... but about grieving the life you thought you'd have by now? In this episode of Single, Not Spiraling, we're talking about disenfranchised grief—the kind that doesn't get talked about because there's no funeral, no breakup, no obvious loss. Just you, quietly mourning the version of adulthood you imagined: the partner, the house, the milestones. We unpack the cultural timelines that were never built for single women, the system that still ties a woman's worth to being “chosen,” and why giving yourself permission to feel it all is the most powerful thing you can do.

Send us a textIn this episode of The So Be It Podcast, Dr Amen Kaur explores how modern women can build confidence without burnout through nervous-system science and self-mastery.What if the exhaustion you're carrying isn't burnout, but biology doing its best to keep you safe? We trace how history shaped a survival reflex that ties safety to approval and why that reflex still shows up as people pleasing, perfectionism, and self-silencing in high-stakes rooms. Drawing from epigenetics, neuroception, and practical nervous system science, we break down what happens when the amygdala takes over, why language disappears at the moment you most need it, and how to turn awareness into lasting change without white-knuckling your way through.Together, we unpack the difference between hustle-fueled productivity and presence-driven progress. You'll learn how to spot survival strategies masquerading as strengths, and how to replace them with regulated action...small, calm steps that compound into confidence and self-trust. We walk through breath cues that re-engage the prefrontal cortex, reframes for fear that honor your body's intent, and practical micro-asks that train your system to associate visibility with safety rather than threat.This is confidence as chemistry, not performance; courage as capacity, not posturing.If you're ready to stop outsourcing safety to approval or overwork, this conversation offers clear tools and compassionate language to help you lead from presence. Expect grounded strategies for asking for the raise, naming your contribution, and holding boundaries without guilt - plus a simple framework for turning awareness into action.Subscribe, share this with someone who needs it, and leave a review with the one small, safe step you'll take today.

WATCH & SUBSCRIBE TO THE SHOW ON YOUTUBE @chosenbyJesusCBJ How do you hold onto faith when everything around you feels unstable? In this powerful episode Kelley & Taylor get real about what it looks like to trust God in a world that often feels unsafe- school shooting, church violence, cultural division, and fear. As a mother & daughter walking through life together, they open up about the emotional weight of raising children and navigating today's chaos- and how to stay anchored in peace when everything around you feels uncertain. Through scripture, honest stories, and Spirit-led encouragement, they reveal the key to living with unshakeable faith in an unstable world: trusting the ONE who never changes. Even when institutions crumble, and headlines break your heart, God's promises remain firm. The world may shake, but your faith doesn't have to, and remember this: Jesus has you. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, He will give you the strength to walk through any situation, and He will break the demonic fear that's been trying to hold you back. KEY SCRIPTURES: Hebrews 12:28-29 "since we are receiving a Kingdom that cannot be shaken..." Isaiah 26:3-4 "you will keep in perfect peace, those whose minds are steadfast." Psalm 18:2 "the Lord is my Rock, my fortress, my deliverer.." Even when the world feels unsafe, God's presence is still our refuge and strength.

403 Choosing Love First It's easy to forget that we have free will, that we can choose what we love, what we like, how we choose for others to perceive us. It takes a great deal of self reflection and growth to find the parts of ourselves that are willing to speak up and fight for what we believe in, even if we must speak up and fight against ourselves. In today's episode Sarah Elkins and Edward Simberg discuss everything from how they met, to their deep love of storytelling, to the core beliefs they both hold dear. Highlights How do you live the stories you share? How do your stories reflect your values? Do you put genuine human effort into reaching out to a person? How are your self perceptions skewed? Are you conscious of how you want to be perceived? What is something you want? And what are your next steps in getting there? If you can have foundational love and gratitude your life will change. Quotes “You need to burn that candle a little bit, before you realize how big that fire really is.” “If you want it, it's way more likely that it's going to happen.” “We don't choose our interests, that's one of the most interesting things I've learned lately. We don't really choose our thoughts, we don't really choose our interests, they just come to us.” “Do you think love is a choice?” Dear Listeners it is now your turn, I have a few questions for you: The first is, what is something you say you're not good at and maybe it's time to ask yourself the question, am I not good at it or have I decided not to be good at it? Have I decided not to try? Is it something I call inauthentic when it's actually uncomfortable or I don't like it? The next thing I would love to hear from you about is what was your takeaway? I was thinking about the difference between love and like, and why I feel like love is a more important choice to people and things. Because that will color how you choose happiness as well. And Last, I would love to hear what you are going to do with this one precious life and having conversations -extended conversations- with people in your community. Now, Go. And, as always, thank you for listening.

In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana.

Send us a textWhat does it take to turn unimaginable adversity into a life of purpose and strength? In this deeply moving episode, Joey Pinz sits down with a TEDx speaker whose story embodies resilience, courage, and the power of transformation.Raised in poverty in the Philippines, she endured abandonment, cultural rejection, and cycles of abuse. Her path led to early motherhood, immigration to the U.S., and years of struggle through domestic violence. But instead of staying silent, she forged a new path — one she calls emotional alchemy, the practice of transforming pain into wisdom and purpose.Her journey took her from shelters to the stage of the United Nations, and eventually to the TEDx platform, where she shared her truth with the world. Through storytelling, ritual, and intentional daily practices, she shows that resilience is not a fixed trait — it's a daily choice.
This episode is a celebration of courage, compassion, and the power of purpose. Host Allison Walsh welcomes back her dear friend and changemaker Johanna Kandel, founder and CEO of the National Alliance for Eating Disorders, as they honor the organization's 25th anniversary. What began as Johanna's deeply personal mission to ensure no one felt as alone as she once did has evolved into one of the nation's leading nonprofits—offering a free, therapist-led helpline and life-saving support groups that reach more than 30,000 people annually across 88 countries.In this heartfelt conversation, Johanna opens up about transforming pain into purpose, leading with resilience, and creating a movement that has changed the landscape of eating disorder recovery. She shares lessons on courage, collaboration, and hope, revealing how her 21-year-old self's determination became a global force for good. Listeners will walk away feeling inspired to believe in their own ability to create impact — and reminded that when we heal together, we rise together. Together, they discuss:How Johanna turned her personal recovery into the National Alliance for Eating Disorders at age 21 and built it into a global lifeline.The Alliance's real-world impact: therapist-led helplines (~8,000 calls/year), 21 free support groups, ~30,000 participants annually, and 290,000 searches on findedhelp.com.Why eating disorders are serious biopsychosocial brain illnesses (not vanity) and the importance of getting care from trained, specialty providers.How free, clinician-led support groups and peer connection (“healed people heal people”) close the access gap for people who can't get traditional treatment.The role of social media, weight stigma, and emerging trends (including GLP-1 conversations) in shaping public understanding and care needs.Johanna's innovation roadmap: partnering with social platforms and AI (OpenAI, Cloud, Gemini) to meet people where they are and expand reach.What's next for the Alliance — an ambitious goal to scale the helpline to 7 days a week, increase funding and partnerships, and keep driving down stigma.How listeners can take action: share resources, support the Alliance, or find help via findedhelp.com.
402 Freedom in Healing Throughout life we may make decisions, or be subject to decisions made involving us. Whether it's first or second hand, inevitably we begin to believe in a pattern in the behavior around us, oftentimes leading to self doubt and worse. However, if we keep moving forward, actively choosing to make the best of a situation, to learn and grow in order to better ourselves for ourselves, we will find our freedom in healing. In today's episode, Sarah Elkins and Holli Tabren McEachern discuss the importance of growth, healing, and the honesty that comes with self reflection. Honesty not just with the world, but with yourself and what has happened to make you feel the way you do, and how it triggers you. Highlights Empathy in a world of cruelty is the bravest rebellion. How have you been programmed? Have you ever encountered favoritism? What choices are you making that reflect your behavior? Do you feel like you have to justify these choices? Quotes “I think it's because we look at society, and we look at the grandma with the grandkids and the grandma always spoils the grandkids. You have this program, like your program, program from the way things are. Program from the way everybody does things.” “And God, he prepares you for what's next. You don't know it's preparation. You don't realize that all these things that happen in your life, even the bad choices you make, will prepare you for the next thing.” “You have to change you before anything in the situation can change.” Dear Listeners it is now your turn, Where are you incarcerated? What are you choosing not to see in your own decisions? That maybe with a little light on them can help you find more satisfaction and happiness in your life. It's a simple question, but the answer might be tricky. And, as always, thank you for listening. About Holli Holli Tabren is an author, speaker, mentor, and reentry specialist dedicated to helping women rebuild their lives and reclaim their power after incarceration. Once sentenced to 25 years in prison, she served 10 years before her case was overturned transforming her pain into purpose.

What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana. Be sure to check out the Storytelling For Professionals Course as well to make sure you nail that next interview!
I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode. Text us here...What if the stories you loved as a kid were quietly rewriting the rules for an entire generation? In this episode, Julie sits down with Rachelle Bergstein, bestselling author of The Genius of Judy: How Judy Blume Rewrote Childhood for All of Us. Together, they unpack how Judy Blume became an accidental feminist icon, why women's interests are often dismissed as trivial, and how stories can shape culture and confidence for decades.You'll hear about: • The through-line between fashion, femininity, and feminism in Rachelle's work • Judy Blume's bold move from children's books to the provocative Wifey • Why book bans are resurging — and why they matter more than ever • How storytelling becomes activism • How to write bravely in a divided world
Cultivating H.E.R. Space: Uplifting Conversations for the Black Woman
Hey lady! We know you've been doing the work. The real, soul-transformative work that opens your world to new possibilities and brighter days. We're so proud of you for making a commitment to yourself to be a better you for YOU. But, the truth is that healing does not happen in a vacuum and some of the most powerful healing happens in community. What does that mean? In short, it's time to step out of your cocoon so that you can step into your power and purpose.One of the most powerful skills in allowing community to see you, support, and help you grow to your highest potential is skillful vulnerability. We name vulnerability as a skill rather than a tool because it takes learned practice and developed discernment to use it authentically, but baby when it settles in your system you build a level of self-trust that allows you to engage with people and situations with grace and awareness that offers a true richness in life.So, are you ready to expand your capacity for real, genuine, human interactions and cultivate the life of your dreams? Tap in. Dr. Dom and Terri offer a grounded perspective of ways to increase vulnerability and signs that a certain person may not be deserving of your intimate space. As with all things pack your self-compassion and self-forgiveness as you enjoy the ride but be sure to make room for all of the beauty life has to offer when you let the real you shine.If you haven't heard it today, we love you for real lady! Quote of the Day:"Being a Strong Black Woman doesn't mean that you can't be vulnerable. It's okay to cry. It's okay if you're having a bad day. It's okay if some days you feel like giving up. It's okay if you need to ask for help." – Stephanie Lahart Goal Map Like a Pro WorkbookCultivating H.E.R.
