Supporting
Black Women
The SBW Wellness Collaborative seeks to support the wellbeing of Black women by providing a safe space for understanding and redefining the role of strength in Black women's lives. We have curated a supportive space for Black women. Through our multifaceted programs, content, and goods we encourage self-care and a holistic approach to wellness among Black women.
Strong Black Women
In the #Blackgirlmagic era, Black women are excelling in the realms of education, business, and fashion. At the same time, Black women are challenged with increasing rates of anxiety and depression. At the crux of this paradox is the idea of “strength”-- prevailing, sustaining, and maintaining at any cost. The strength that undergirds Black women’s success is embodied in the strong Black woman identity, which has also been linked to women’s minimization of mental distress and limited engagement in support services.
"This was a wonderful time! I think I would really enjoy more discussion regarding the intersection between gender, sexual orientation and race. Thank you for everything! I am leaving feeling gratitude for the time spent today."
