Session 130: The Challenges of Black Women in Leadership

<p>The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a Licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible version of ourselves.</p> <p>This week, we’re digging into some of the particular challenges that come with being a Black woman in a leadership role. For this conversation I was joined by Yunetta Smith, LPC-MHSP, NCC. Yunetta and I chatted about how to manage perfectionism and burnout as a leader, concerns related to connecting authentically with others, and the importance of crafting a self care routine as a leader.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Resources Mentioned</strong></p> <p>Visit our <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/shop/therapy4bgirls" target="_blank" rel= "noopener" data-saferedirecturl= "https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.amazon.com/shop/therapy4bgirls&source=gmail&ust=1572494240540000&usg=AFQjCNHDi3It20bU4EaSRKLevOBADFSCpg">Amazon Store</a> for all the books mentioned on the podcast!</p> <p><a href="https://elevationchurch.org/podcast/">Elevation Church podcast</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.womanevolve.com/podcast">Woman Evolve podcast</a></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Where to Find Yunetta</strong> </p> <p><a href= "https://springforthcounseling.org/">https://springforthcounseling.org/</a></p> <p>Twitter: <a href= "https://www.twitter.com/springforthcounseling">@springforthcounseling</a></p> <p>Facebook: <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/springforthcounseling">@springforthcounseling</a></p> <p>Instagram: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/springforthcounseling">@springforthcounseling</a></p> <p> </p> <p>If you're looking for a therapist in your area, check out the directory at <a href= "https://www.therapyforblackgirls.com/directory" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl= "https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.therapyforblackgirls.com/directory&source=gmail&ust=1572494240541000&usg=AFQjCNH_Gk4aJk8jknVsFlN-TLor6uD43Q">https://www.
