In this episode we discussed:
-The journey of becoming one with self to fully love and embrace your uniqueness
-The stigma around societal pressures for black women and the impact it can have on one to conform to unrealistic realities or self-doubt
-Shifting the narrative to reclaim positive self-image as a Black Woman
-A comparison of the environment of an HBCU vs an PWI and the impact that social environments can have on one’s mindset about self
-The impact of social media and how it contributes to one's self-doubt and mindset of comparison
In this conversation, Vena and I invite you into our experiences as two Black women who’ve confronted life’s challenges to embrace our full uniqueness. We also delve into the significance of self-reflection and the invaluable support of an embracing community.
Our aim with this episode is to empower you, the listener, to stand firm in your individuality, let go of the comparisons and wholeheartedly embrace yourself with pride and confidence.
