In this powerful episode, therapist Kamilah Thomas, LCSW-S, joins us to talk about the emotional cost of constantly showing up as the “strong Black woman.” We unpack where the Superwoman complex comes from, how it shows up in our lives, and—most importantly—how to finally lay the cape down. Kamilah shares therapeutic strategies for building a real support system, setting boundaries, and allowing yourself to be cared for, not just counted on.
✨ It’s time to redefine strength and choose softness, rest, and support—without guilt.
