Loved this article by Bari Tessler (and not just because I'm quoted) about what to do when you're having major anxiety about money. She talks about how essential it is to tend to the emotional aspects of your experience, not just the practical. This one is worth bookmarking. Check it out...

The next round of Soul Sistah Circle, an ongoing support & process group for black women exploring friendship, community & belonging starts January 19th! Interviews for the group are happening now, and the group is already a little more than half full. So encourage folks who are interested in joining to contact me today. In this intimate circle, participants can expect to...... Connect with others and deepen your capacity for intimacy, authenticity and aliveness in relationship Trust your experience, feelings and responses and use them to communicate authentically in your relationships Build community with other Black women, and explore what it means to stand with and for one another It feels so ESSENTIAL to gather Black women for this work. This world we live in pushes us into separation and isolation, overwork and self-negation. But community... is a resource that nourishes, restores and renews, and helps us to be more resilient and effective in the face of life's challenges. Please share this offering with Black women you think would benefit from this supportive and nourishing group experience.
