In this episode, host Kelley Bonner delves into the concept of opting out of choosing violence. By deciding to choose joy instead of causing harm (to yourself, or others), you become empowered to create more space in your life for receiving joy and abundance. This episode is for you if you are ready to learn strategies that will allow you to overcome the need to ever allow violence as an option in your life. Stay tuned til the end, to learn more about today’s homework assignment. You will be so glad that you did ๐Ÿ™‚

The Black Girl Burnout podcast is dedicated to helping black women learn how to opt out of the mentality of struggle while also learning how to opt into a life of joy, abundance, and good health, which is their birthright. Burnout can manifest in a variety of ways, including feelings of exhaustion, cynicism, and a lack of accomplishment. It is totally ok if you are experiencing more than one of the feelings at the same time. Being able to fully align with your truth is a significant sign of strength.
