Summary
Are you ready to instill change in your life? Make the first move.
Life as a black woman comes with its significant share of challenges. A social landscape marked by bias means we often labor more yet earn less, shoulder a disproportionate share of responsibilities, yet savor fewer perks. The health disparity also reflects this bias, with us being more prone to health conditions, but often overlooked by the healthcare system.
It's easy for society, driven by stereotypes, to label us as "strong black women" who can handle these burdens with grace. The reality, however, is that this stereotype only aims to justify the unfair load thrust upon us and hinder us from seeking the support we deserve.
There is no doubt that many black women are indeed inspirational figures, exuding confidence and pride. Yet, it is important to recognize that not everyone can or should bear the constant strain of racial trauma and other stressors without consequence. This relentless stress often manifests as burnout, anxiety, and a significant dent in self-esteem.
While we may tirelessly advocate for change externally, the true shift can only emerge from within ourselves. The first step towards that transformation is you taking control and prioritizing your needs. This is not selfishness, but a potent declaration against a system that persistently sidelines us.
This audiobook is a tribute to your individuality and will introduce you to:
- An in-depth understanding of the seven dimensions of self-care, common misconceptions, and a complimentary self-care assessment
- Recognition of trauma in all its forms and ways to identify its presence in your life
- The reality of the heightened risk of hypertension among black women
- Strategies for healing your inner child and paving the way for positive life changes
- A set of questions to identify self-sabotage and solutions to overcome it
- Techniques for liberating yourself from guilt and shame, fostering forgiveness, and finding peace

As a partner to a Black woman, the book provided me with valuable insights into the challenges Black women may face in their self-care journey. The audiobook dismantles common misconceptions around self-care, emphasizing the pivotal role mental well-being plays. This resonated deeply with my partner's experiences, and it reinforced the importance of prioritizing mental health in our daily lives.

Love this Audiobook; so incredible!
First of all, this is the audiobook you need to listen to; it is simply great. It is so inspiring and empowering; it really gives you a lift and puts you in a good headspace. Black women have it so tough; I really feel Black women do more work and can be treated poorly. All the more reason why self care is super important. Yet Black women are often too busy taking care of things, getting it all done, and putting others before themselves that they neglect to take care of themselves. This audiobook is a reminder to stop and take care of yourself. I absolutely love it and encourage you to get it; you will love it, too.

An uplifting read!
This book has been a revelation for me as a black woman, prompting a newfound awareness of aspects of myself that I hadn't fully acknowledged before. It's truly an uplifting read! The narrative explores the experience of being a strong woman, juggling numerous responsibilities, and highlights the tendency to overlook how certain burdens can become overwhelming. It serves as a powerful reminder to prioritize self-love and clarity. I highly recommend this book!
