This episode is a little different—and deeply personal.
In this special spoken word performance, Dakiya shares a poetic love note to every Black woman navigating her 40s: the grief, the joy, the confusion, the clarity. Through powerful language and heartfelt reflection, Still Here, Still Her honors what it means to evolve, release, and reclaim yourself—especially when the world has expected you to stay small and silent.
After the poem, Dakiya unpacks the emotional stages many women experience in this season of life—awakening, grieving, releasing, reclaiming, and becoming.
If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Who am I now?” or felt the growing pains of shifting into a new version of yourself, this episode will remind you:
You’re not behind.
You’re not broken.
You are still here.
And you are still HER.
