The 62nd Episode: The Weight of the Strong Black Woman: Storytelling, Trauma & Tyler Perry's Virgo Mind

In today’s episode, I’m diving into a conversation that’s been sitting heavy on my spirit — how stories like Tyler Perry’s Straw highlight the real trauma Black women face, but often leave us with narratives that can unintentionally do more harm than healing.I explore the dangerous normalization of Black women’s pain, the cultural conditioning that makes people numb to our struggles, and how the constant image of strength leaves too many of us unprotected.We’ll also touch on Tyler Perry’s Virgo nature — how the gift of service can manifest as anxiety, overthinking, and trauma-stacking in storytelling, without giving the characters (or the audience) space to breathe, process, or heal.This is not just about movies — it’s about real life, real healing, and the importance of telling our stories with care, balance, and restoration.✨ You’ll want to sit with this one.
