RBW SZN 6: Welcome Back Deneshia!

SZN 6 of the Resilient Black Women Podcast is HERE!  We’re back and better — and welcoming our amazing co-host Deneshia back to the mic!  This season, we’re diving deep into the issues impacting Black women — from the weight of survival mode to the truth about depression in our communities. According to the research , Black women are disproportionately affected by mental health challenges — and we’re here to talk about it. We’re redefining resilience. Not as pushing through at all costs, but as healing, resting, and reclaiming our wholeness.  You are NOT alone.  This episode is your reminder that it’s okay to step out of fight or flight and step into recovery.  Bio-psycho-social overhaul? Yes. It’s overdue. So press play. This one is for YOU. #ResilientBlackWomen #SZN6 #BlackMentalHealthMatters #HealingInCommunity #StrongButHealing #RestIsResistance #TherapyForBlackGirls #MentalHealthAwareness #RedefiningResilience #FightOrFlight #YouAreNotAlone #PodcastSeason6 #BlackWomenHealing #WellnessForUs

In this heartfelt transition episode, Deneshia and Joi open up about the changes happening both in the world and in the journey of their podcast. From new directions in their message to saying goodbye to a partnership with KUAF NPR Radio as host and producer, this episode marks a bold and beautiful new beginning. With honesty and heart, Deneshia and Joi step fully into the process  of owning their voices and reclaiming the narrative of Black Womanhood and resilience.  As they navigate the challenges of producing and creating their podcast independently, they remain committed to their mission: TO de-stigmatize mental health for Black Women and Women of Color. Tune in to hear our stories on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and YouTube as we redefine strength and resilience, and join a community where healing is a radical act of self-love and communal support.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
