About this listen

A space for eldest daughters and strong Black women to laugh, unpack, and heal from the “I got it” mentality — the invisible load of always being the one who keeps things together. It’s a blend of humor, therapy energy, and real talk about boundaries, identity, softness, and self-discovery.
