In this powerful episode of the Allow Yourself Grace podcast, we’re diving deep into the importance of REST for Black women. Too often, we carry the weight of the world on our shoulders—showing up strong for everyone but ourselves. But what if rest was the key to our true power?
Special guest Elizabeth McCoy, LPC (@yourspacetoheal) joins us to unpack why rest is a radical act of self-love and healing for Black women. As a licensed professional counselor, Elizabeth teaches how we can release the pressure, set boundaries, and reclaim our peace without guilt.
🌿 In this episode, we discuss:
✔️ Why Black women feel pressure to be “strong” all the time
✔️ The importance of resting without shame
✔️ Practical ways to incorporate rest into your daily life
✔️ How community and sisterhood can support our healing
✔️ Eliminating self-doubt and embracing our worth
✔️ The power of supporting and uplifting each other
✨ It’s time to rewrite the narrative—rest is not a reward; it’s a necessity. Let’s break the cycle of burnout, step into confidence, and create a stronger, more supportive community for ourselves.
