Women of color, especially Black women across the diaspora, have reached a crossroads in today's era that some consider daunting while others are excited and empowered. Regardless of our stance, the burden of wearing the "Strong Black Woman/Superwoman" cape to navigate life eventually takes a toll, especially without a reliable and peaceful support system. 

Now, more than ever we collectively grapple with heightened stress, anxiety, frustration, and sometimes even fear. Balancing the scales between exclusion and belongingness as we strive for success in our professional and academic pursuits is far from effortless, no matter how gracefully we may appear to manage. 

Simultaneously, many of us have achieved significant milestones and continue to

make progress in education, leadership, business, and entrepreneurship.

Nevertheless, this journey is not without its share of obstacles, as we navigate the prickly thorns of discrimination that persist in our society. Confronting the complexities of microaggressions, invalidation, negative social stigmas, systemic racism, sexism, gender biases, healthcare neglect, and misogyny becomes increasingly challenging.
