We’re warming things back up! New episodes of Balanced Black Girl are coming soon, but in the meantime we’re revisiting some inspiring conversations you need to hear.

This week we’re sharing a conversation I had the opportunity to guest on from the That Wasn’t In My Textbook podcast hosted by Toya Coleman. In this episode, uncover the radical and revolutionary history of self-care. Listen to learn about the connection between self-care and the women of the Black Panther Party, discuss the pretty and ugly sides of self-care, and so much more.

In this episode, we talk about...


  • Dive into the history of why the term 'self-care' was coined back in the 1950s.

  • Uncover the powerful links between self-care and the women of the civil rights movement and the Black Panther Party.

  • Tackle the not-so-glamorous aspects of self-care.

  • Self-care tips and tricks that you won't want to miss.
