Dr. Jade Singleton is a former investment banker turned DEI strategist, researcher, and founder of the IKONI Collective, a wellness collective devoted to centering and sustaining Black women. She’s also the creator of Ninety-Two, a new documentary funded through Kickstarter (ending July 22) that tells the story of Black women quietly leading a new blueprint for liberation through healing, rest, and collective resistance. The title Ninety-Two refers to the 92% of Black women who voted for Kamala Harris in 2024 only to have been sidelined, silenced, or disappeared in the months that have followed. In this episode, Jade shares what it means to reclaim power when systems betray you. We talk about burnout, gaslighting, and workplace trauma and how Black women are choosing each other and choosing rest as an act of survival and sovereignty.
One of Jade’s most powerful takeaways:
“We don’t just need rest like Eat, Pray, Love. We need rest for survival.”
