How to Deal with Bullying at Work as an Black Women in Leadership?

In this empowering podcast episode, I, Natasha Parris, a mental health therapist and empowerment strategist, engage in a deeply insightful conversation with Dr. Shonda Harris-Muhammed. Dr. Muhammed, the executive director of BWEL and a school board member of Richmond Public Schools, shares her remarkable journey of triumph over trauma and adversity, especially as a woman in leadership.

Dr. Muhammed opens up about her upbringing in Louisa County, facing trauma and contemplating suicide, and the challenges she encountered as she pursued her leadership path. She highlights the significance of Be Well, an organization dedicated to supporting black women in leadership roles, and emphasizes the importance of mentorship and advocacy.

During our discussion, Dr. Muhammed reflects on the pain of being betrayed and bullied by other women in leadership positions, underscoring the need for vulnerability, forgiveness, and self-empowerment. She shares three powerful pieces of advice: prioritize spiritual connection, utilize "I messages" to express needs and emotions, and never underestimate your own greatness.

As we conclude our conversation, Dr. Muhammed reminds listeners of the importance of resilience, self-love, and supporting one another on the journey to leadership excellence. Through her inspiring words and personal experiences, she encourages women to embrace their strength, overcome obstacles, and strive for greatness.
