Homegirl at the office stays winning. Your bestie in another city is getting closer to someone else. Which one is envy? Which one is jealousy? What other feelings come up? Often times they are used interchangeably and incorrect. Terri and Dom help us clarify what each term means. Then they walk us through multiple real-life examples to help us parse out what each word looks like when played out. What are the questions we need to ask to navigate each situation? Scroll down for some helpful tips. By the way, shout out to Meg Thee Stallion for those bomb-ass knees :)

Hey lady! You know we love a mental health check-in, so we want you to answer one simple question for us…are you good? We mean that for real, are you good? Are you ok? How are you? Ok, that was three questions but you get the gist. This week, Dr. Dom and Terri stop by to holler at the strong Black women in our community to let them know that we see you. We see you getting up each day and giving it your all even if on the inside it is a struggle.
This week they invite you to place the mask to the side and look in the mirror and assess how you are feeling and how you are doing. You can lay the armor down and tend to the parts of yourself that are tender without judgment. Doing so can help you avert full on meltdown or burnout because truthfully lady, ain’t nobody got time for that. So do yourself a favor, give yourself a hug or take a nap and allow yourself to validate your own humanity with self-compassion.
As always, we have a community of like-hearted women who will welcome you with open arms. You are not out here alone, lady. Join us in our Patreon for real sistergirl support!
