About this listen
In this episode of Bounce Back, Black Woman, we take a closer look at racism fatigue and the cost of being constantly on alert.
I reflect on the cultural backlash that followed the Super Bowl halftime performance by Bad Bunny, and why that moment felt both affirming and activating for so many Black and Brown women. More importantly, we talk about what those moments do to our nervous systems, and why stepping away from the noise isn’t avoidance — it’s wisdom.
This episode introduces an important reframe: Bounce Back doesn’t always mean engaging, explaining, or fixing. Sometimes it means choosing regulation over resolution.
In this episode, we explore:-
What racism fatigue looks like in real time
-
Why cultural backlash is exhausting even when it’s predictable
-
How constant vigilance affects the nervous system
-
Why choosing peace isn’t disengagement
-
What “Bounce Back” really means at the body level
