About this listen
Employed, Still Afraid™ returns with a powerful, soul-level conversation featuring Rev. Dr. Xenia Barnes — minister, psychologist, and advocate for spiritual resilience in the modern workplace.
In this episode, we explore the emotional, spiritual, and psychological toll of being “technically employed” but living with constant instability: layoffs, hostile environments, leadership failures, and the silent fear that shadows even the strongest professionals.
We go deep into:
✨ What fear really does to the nervous system
✨ The spiritual cost of chronic workplace uncertainty
✨ How Black professionals navigate invisible labor + invisible harm
✨ Faith as a stabilizing force during reinvention
✨ The difference between being carried by purpose and being stagnated by fear
✨ Why your next chapter might require a spiritual interruption
If you’re holding on, powering through, or feeling betrayed by systems that were never designed for your flourishing — this episode is your exhale.
