Hey Sis,In this powerful solo episode, Monica Wisdom takes us on a deeply personal and timely journey into the tension between resilience and rest. Drawing from her reflections and inspired by a quote from Charles Blow, Monica explores how Black women are consciously disengaging from systems of exhaustion and expectation, not out of weakness, but as an act of radical self-preservation. You’ll hear why resilience without rest is unsustainable, how trauma and obligation have shaped our survival, and why now is the time to reclaim our softness, our peace, and our next chapter. What You’ll Learn in This Episode:– Why resilience can’t be your only tool– How societal expectations are wearing Black women down– Two powerful ways to rest intentionally: the Power Down routine and creating a Sleep Sanctuary– Why choosing rest is an act of resistance and self-love.Mentioned in the Episode:🌸 The Soft Life Blueprint Journal – A soulful space to reconnect with your dreams and your ease.
