Black Women Ain't Out Here Angry For Nothing [A Summer of Encores]

My strong is  “resolute and standing firmly in
my truth” Angela Bassett. 




They tell us to take risks – take lots of them. They tell us
not to settle for mediocrity – fight for the life we want.
So, we do! We fight with everything in us – not being easily
intimidated. Not letting people walk all over us. We boldly
speak up against unfairness and injustices in our personal
and business lives.





We have the audacity to sit at the table where we’ve rightfully
earned our seats. We fought! We pushed! We refused to be
silenced!





And…now we’ve been labeled the ANGRY BLACK WOMAN. 



Every Black woman in America has been called ANGRY at least once
in her lifetime, but Black women ain’t out here angry for
nothing. Tap in to this week’s encore episode as we shine a light
on how the angry Black woman label originated, how it’s 
been used for centuries to silence us and why it’s okay to be
justifiably angry without fear of being judged.

Cultivate a daily practice of nurturing yourself with Nurture
Yourself Bingo
Nurturing yourself does not have to be difficult, but it does
need to be consistent, so why not make it fun. Nurture
Yourself Bingo is divided into five categories – one
category per card. Each category has twenty-four activities to
support you in a daily practice of nurturing yourself. All you
need to do to get started is print the cards, laminate them,
and start nurturing yourself.


Do one activity daily, marking a X in the squares as you go
until you get bingo. Once you get bingo, do something to
celebrate yourself. If you get bingo on more than one card at
the same time, up the celebration. Alternatively, you can work
on one card at a time and/or do more than one activity a day.
It’s your practice, do what feels right for you. Whatever you
decide, we’ve got FIVE CATEGORIES & 124
WAYS for you to do it.
