An Invitation to Journey with Me

For the Black Woman Leader Who’s Been Carrying It All

Sis, let’s get real. You’ve been grinding, leading, showing up for everyone—but when was the last time you showed up for yourself?

For 12 years, I poured everything I had into serving others as an Executive Director. I wore the weight of responsibility like armor, convinced that my worth was tied to my labor. But eventually, the exhaustion caught up with me. My spirit whispered what my body had been screaming all along: This isn’t sustainable. You need more than a break—you need a reset.

So, I took a sabbatical. And that decision changed everything.

This blog isn’t just a reflection of my journey—it’s a call to action for you.

The Goal of This Blog

I refuse to gatekeep this information because on the other side of burnout? There is freedom.

When I went to the root—not just the symptoms, but the source of my exhaustion—I realized that my struggle was deeper than a lack of resources and funding. It was deeper than being unseen in systems that weren’t built for me. And while all of that is true, here’s what I also know:

💡 Black woman, you are the chosen.

And with that comes a power that is unmatched. When you truly know who the f*** you are—oh wait, y’all ain’t ready for me to get raw yet. But trust me, sis, when you wake up to your full power? Ain’t nothing that can stop you.

That’s why I created a FREE mini workbook—a simple yet powerful tool to help you start visioning where you want to be.

Because Let’s Be Clear:

🖤 Peace is yours.
🖤 Joy is yours.
🖤 Love is yours.

For YOU. Not just for your team, your family, your organization—for you. And that’s not selfish. That’s self-full.

And let’s be real—your organization, your work, your mission won’t survive if you don’t.

So in my Midwest Michigan voice… what doe? It’s time to claim what’s already yours.

You ready? Let’s go, sis. 💜🔥
