Welcome to your new start 🤎   Are you hiding? When we’ve been hurt, we find so many ways to protect ourselves. We shrink ourselves, we run away from what scares us, and we avoid what’s hard. But, what if the things that make us feel comfortable are actually getting in the way of our healing, our connection, and the life we want to live?In this episode, we take a deep dive into the foundation of Black Girl Seen—the power of practicing vulnerability and letting ourselves be seen as a path towards healing old wounds, getting our needs met, and living the life we deserve. Enjoyed the episode?
