Why do we, as Black women, feel like we have to work 150% just to prove we belong? In this episode of This Woman Can, we’re breaking down the guilt of not overperforming, unpacking the pressures of being “the only one” in the room, and sharing real stories of women who are caught in the hustle trap.

If you’ve ever stayed late at work to prove your commitment, said “yes” to avoid seeming ungrateful, or over-prepared for meetings just to silence imposter syndrome—this one’s for you. But here’s the truth: Productivity isn’t the goal—balance, fulfillment, and joy are.

We’re talking about why rest is productive, how to shake the guilt, and why you don’t have to burn out to prove your worth and more. Tune in, and let’s start unlearning the need to do the most.
