Episode 83: Break the Barrel: Crab Mentality

In this episode of Talk to Me Michele, we dive into the “crab in the barrel” mentality—why we sometimes pull each other down instead of lifting one another up, and the lasting damage it causes emotionally, economically, and culturally. Michele shares personal stories, historical context, and practical strategies to flip the script: embracing abundance, building mentorship networks, practicing group economics, and collaborating daily to create wealth and legacy. This isn’t just theory—it’s about real actions you can take now. From supporting Black-owned businesses to mentoring the next generation, discover how small steps can shift us from competition to community.   📖 Grab Your Copy – Color Me Unbothered Coloring Book or Color Me Sassy now available: https://tinyurl.com/TalktoMeMichele ☕ Support the Show – Help keep these unbothered vibes flowing: Buy Me a Coffee 📲 Follow & Connect Instagram: @talktomemichele Facebook: @talktomemichele TikTok: Talk to Me Michele Stay tuned for more episodes of Talk to Me Michele—where real talk, laughs, and lessons never stop.
