As Black women, we’re faced with dealing with stressors such as sexism and racism at work which can impact our mental and physical health. This kind of trauma takes a toll on our bodies and overall well-being. Somatic Psychology has shown how our bodies hold on to trauma, which can manifest in physical symptoms.

WHY I CREATED THIS JOURNAL I created this journal for people like me who resigned from a job that was not a safe space for me as a Black woman. It was a stressful time when I resigned and the years I worked in the organization. I also neglected to see a doctor for health concerns related to the stress I constantly experienced. It was after I resigned that I realized I needed to address my health before I could move on to the next chapter of my life and pursue other opportunities. As Black women, we are resilient and move on from bad situations as if we are not hurt mentally, physically, or spiritually. The "Strong Black Woman" persona. I knew I couldn't move forward without healing my body. What I share in this journal represents all of the areas I addressed to move forward and heal. Workplace trauma is real for Black women but in 2022 were opting for less stress. The Great Resignation is a radical movement. It's time to live out loud!
