Breaking the Strong Black Woman Myth: Wellness as a Birthright Inspired by Dr. JeVona Maniex

This episode challenges the harmful Strong Black Woman myth and explores the urgent need to reframe wellness as a birthright, not a luxury. Drawing on new research and lived experiences, we examine how chronic over-functioning, invisible labor, and systemic bias impact Black women's health and well-being—especially in the workplace. Discover why real support means more than surface-level solutions, and learn how setting boundaries, asking for help, and demanding justice are acts of leadership. If you're ready to help build systems that honor Black women's humanity, not just their resilience, this conversation is for you.
