The "Soft Life" Movement

#InMySoftGirlEra has taken over social media with images of women enjoying luxurious vacations, indulging in extravagant experiences, and more. But is there more to the soft life than just aesthetics? And how does it impact Black women who often face stereotypes of being angry, independent, and strong?

In today's episode, Kathleen welcomes back Brigette Lumpkins, a strategist, advisor, business developer, and writer with expertise in professional and financial services. Previously, Brigette shared valuable insights on resilience. This time, she advocates for embracing the soft life, ranking it at Maslow's Self-actualization level, and leaving behind the strong Black girl trope. Let's explore what it truly means to live in our soft life era.

Tune in as Kathleen and Bridgette share about:

• Their ideas of an ideal soft life
• Debunking the societal perspective of the strong, angry black woman
• What a soft life is
• Gradual steps we can take to achieve a soft life as Black women
• Getting to the point of freedom from resentment
• Why do we all need to stop rationalizing the need to put ourselves first 
• If there is a soft life accessible to all black women
• What it takes to attain a soft life

…and so much more!
