Hey lady! This week Terri and Dr. Dom drop in for a quick musing on why making time to enjoy your summer is of high importance for Black women.

Whether it’s stopping by your local pool to lay out and cool off, taking a hike to get your heart rate up and see the sights, or planning a tropical vacation, making you time and taking a break from life’s demands is worth your attention.

Lady, you are worthy of rest, pleasure and delight. Make it a point to find all three and more this summer. And, tag us in the photos on Instagram! We want to see how our community is making the most of Summer 2026!

Revisiting Your Goals with Grace | MINISODE

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/1ed833e7-19f1-4de8-89b1-b4830019da31/transcript

Can you think of a time when you’ve had to say no or struggled to say no? Who have you had to say no to? How do you feel when you have to say? These situations are boundary testers and using “No” is a way for us to outline our rules of interaction. In this throwback episode, Terri and Dom offer us ways to say "No" within real-life situations, including instances in which they were successful, someone was clear with them on a boundary, and times when they struggled with saying "No." If you want to stand up for yourself in those uncomfortable moments, practice in the mirror, in the shower, in the car and remember... “No." It’s a complete sentence. I said what I said and it does not require justification or explanation.

No! In case you were wondering, no is a complete sentence. Use it without hesitation. Nike! (Just do it!) Know that using it is an act of self-care. Can you think of a time when you’ve had to say no or struggled to say no? Who have you had to say no...
