Show Notes

Hey lady! This week Terri and Dr. Dom drop in for a quick musing on why making time to enjoy your summer is of high importance for Black women. This year is zooming by and back-to-school ads are already popping up threatening Summer’s freedom with its Fall rhythm and routines. Before we get there make sure you have a Summer to remember! Whether it’s stopping by your local pool to lay out and cool off, taking a hike to get your heart rate up and see the sights, or planning a tropical vacation, making you time and taking a break from life’s demands is worth your attention. Lady, you are worthy of rest, pleasure and delight. Make it a point to find all three and more this summer. And, tag us in the photos on Instagram! We want to see how our community is making the most of Summer 2026!

Hey lady, welcome to Fall! This season is perfect for sweaters, soup, and shedding. As the temperature cools and you find yourself drawn inward, you can now use this time to shed some of the survival programming and strategies so that you can return to the true you. This week, Terri and Dr. Dom lovingly discuss how they’ve endured seasons of straight survival without even realizing it. Lady, hindsight is absolutely 20/20. One day you look back at the past couple of years you grit your way through despite not letting it show that you are going through it and say to yourself wow! The amount of life-changing, truly transformative events can blow your mind. But, once you get past the wave of emotions that may come up you now have an amazing opportunity to chart a course – one from a place of wholeness and abundance, not scratching and surviving. Tune in for strategies on how to optimize your time and your life now that you are in a place to do what you want to do, not only what you can or have to do. And, girl, if you are not a member of our Patreon you are missing out! We have exclusives, first look content, and real sister friend camaraderie that will help you expand both your mind and your community. We’re waiting for you!

Lady, by now you know the most uncomfortable part of your becoming is just that, the discomfort. The next version of you requires a shedding of all of the ways that kept you safe because those ways are likely now what are keeping you small. Knowing that doesn’t make the actual act of shifting your life any easier, which is why Terri and Dr. Dom stop by this week to offer some comfort and a few strategies to help you navigate these changes in a way that is authentic to you. Whether it’s shifting a relationship by removing contact or allowing yourself to shatter your own worldview, there is a quiet power in making yourself comfortable in the liminal spaces in your life. So, how do you make the most of the vastness between the old and new you? Tune in this week for tips on how to cultivate a level of curiosity so that you can decorate your interior life with what feels real and true for you. Lady, this life is a journey – a beautiful, bumpy ride ripe with opportunities for meaning, connection, and impact. What do you want this life to feel like? Once you are clear, you can know for sure, that it is yours to be had. Happy creating, lady!
