Episode 20: What It Means to Be a Black Woman in Bloom
Surviving is important. Thriving is elegant.
-Maya Angelou
In episode 19, Being In Transition, I talked about my transition as a new Mom. And in a previous episode way back in 2021, I talked about rebranding the podcast from Wellness for Black Girls to Black Woman In Bloom. One thing that those episodes have in common is that I presented some thoughts on identity.
