I don't watch them because I do this work every day in the world. I'm working every day with corporate leaders who are asking me: well, why do we have to say white supremacy, culture that makes white people feel bad.
Ever felt utterly exhausted, not just physically but deep in your soul? In this episode of 'Insideout Conversations', host Lisa Lackey revisits a powerful discussion with Mary-Frances Winters, the author of 'Black Fatigue: How Racism Erodes the Mind, Body, and Spirit'. Originally aired in 2021, this conversation remains incredibly relevant today, especially for Black women navigating a world filled with systemic racism and microaggressions.
Winters, who leads The Winters Group, a global diversity and inclusion consulting firm, dives into the concept of 'Black fatigue'—a unique kind of exhaustion born from enduring racism and discrimination. She explains how this fatigue affects mental, emotional, and physical health, offering valuable strategies for self-care and resilience. Lisa and Mary-Frances also explore the importance of setting boundaries and the role of systemic change in alleviating this pervasive weariness.
Whether you caught this episode when it first aired or are tuning in for the first time, you'll find fresh insights and practical advice to help you prioritize your well-being in a critical world. It's like having a heartfelt chat with wise friends who truly understand your struggles. So, grab a cup of tea, get comfy, and listen in as these two incredible women share their wisdom on combating Black fatigue and fostering self-care.
