In this intimate episode, Kelley shares her own experience of reaching a threshold—the quiet ache of burnout and the radical realization that asking for more isn’t betrayal, it’s evolution. She explores why advocating for your value, especially as a Black woman, can feel like a violation of who you’ve been taught to be… and why it’s actually the boldest form of self-preservation. Listeners will reflect on the cost of overgiving, the inherited guilt around charging for their gifts, and how to shift from scarcity to self-honoring in their careers and creative work.
