A space for eldest daughters and strong Black women to laugh, unpack, and heal from the “I got it” mentality — the invisible load of always being the one who keeps things together. It’s a blend of humor, therapy energy, and real talk about boundaries, identity, softness, and self-discovery.

    I Got It, But I Still Need You

    “I Got It, But I Still Need You” is a love letter to the ones who hold us up when we’re tired of holding it all together. It’s for the strong friends, the oldest siblings, the over-achievers, and the quiet survivors who are finally ready to admit: I don’t want to do this alone anymore. Hit play if you’re ready to let your guard down, remember who’s really in your corner, and give yourself permission to be strong and supported at the same time.

    I Got It, But I Can't Help Everybody

    On this week’s episode, we’re getting real about what it means to be the strong one who’s always “got it.” This raw, uncut conversation dives into the cost of carrying everybody’s problems, how helping can turn into self-abandonment, and why learning to say “I got you, but I can’t help everybody” is an act of protection and self-love.

    I Got It, But Not At My Own Expense

    On this week’s episode of I Got It, Thanks, we’re talking about boundaries — the kind that protect your peace. We are unpacking how “doing everything for everyone else” can quickly become self-abandonment, and why learning to say no (without guilt) is an act of strength, not selfishness.

    I Got It...Apparently

    Welcome to the very first episode of I Got It, Thanks podcast. This one’s for the eldest daughters and strong Black women who’ve been the fixer, the problem-solver, the one who always has it together. We’re laughing, unpacking, and getting real about what it means to carry the invisible load — and how we’re finally learning to set it down. Because truthfully? Sometimes "I got it" means learning to let go.
