In this episode, we explore how embracing the power of pause can transform our approach to communication, leadership, and self-care. Discover why slowing down responses isn’t a sign of disengagement, but a radical act of presence and boundary-setting—especially for Black women navigating high-pressure environments. Learn practical strategies to challenge urgency culture, honor your own pace, and create deeper, more authentic connections in both personal and professional spaces. Step into your Soft Girl Era by reclaiming the right to respond on your own terms and finding liberation in the pause.
