Are you truly successful if you’re constantly stressed?
As Black women, our ambition is unparalleled. We’re the heads of our households; the most educated demographic in the US; we’re growing in numbers as entrepreneurs, but we’re also very stressed and suffer from anxiety and depression.
We’d like to address the problem right at its core. Our ambition doesn’t have to come at the expense of our health and peace of mind. Our well-being can actually fuel our success.
