About this listen

Do you feel like you're doing it all for everyone-all the time? This book offers mindful self-awareness practices to help you prioritize self-care, soothe stress, and create a life of joy, fulfillment, and well-being.

In The Black Woman's Guide to Coping with Stress, Black psychologist and registered nurse Cheryl Woods Giscombe introduces the innovative, research-based superwoman schema (SWS) framework-five core beliefs that drive Black women's stress-and provides self-care practices grounded in mindfulness and self-compassion to help you live a life of joy and greater well-being.

In this empowering guide, you'll identify the core beliefs that may be contributing to your experience of stress-that you must always be strong, hide your emotions, resist vulnerability, succeed even in the face of inadequate resources, and always help others while neglecting self-care. You'll learn how these beliefs can lead to burnout and a feeling of imbalance in your life. And finally, you'll discover how to harness the strengths within these beliefs, so they no longer cause you harm. There's nothing wrong with being strong-but sometimes it's essential to "take off your superwoman cape," recharge, and prioritize self-care. You are worth it. This book will help you gain the self-awareness you need to stay balanced and live your very best life.

Talk about a book yelling at you and calling out all the things you think you have under control. I hope I am able to take the teachings in this book and apply them to be my best self.
