The middle of the month is the opportunity for a sacred pause.
Not quite the start.
Not yet the end.
Just here—in the tender middle.
This is the season where clarity doesn’t always come in answers, but in awareness.
Not in grand vision boards, but in the simple act of noticing:
What feels aligned?
What’s asking to be released?
What part of me is ready to lead differently?
Mid-November invites us to listen deeply—and live gently.
And that’s where we begin this week.
Roundtable One Is Drawing to a Close
The next week is the final meeting of the Women Don’t Retire Roundtable 1—and the conversations have been rich, honest, and liberating.
Together, we’ve been naming transitions out loud.
Releasing old expectations.
And imagining what it means to live not by someone else’s definition of success—but by the rhythm of our own soul.
This is the sacred work of reimagining in community.

A Little Something New Is Coming…
Beloveds,
I’ve been sitting with a question lately:
What would it look like if every woman who feels nourished by this space could help another woman find her way here?
A gentle share.
A quiet ripple.
A simple invitation that opens a door.
This month, I’m introducing something new called Extend the Table — a way for you to help expand this community in whatever way feels most natural and soulful to you.
Two paths.
One movement of women rising.
More on that soon… but for now, just know this:
Your story has the power to help guide someone else into their next chapter.
Stay tuned
Soul Sync Episode 6: Now Streaming
Last time, Dr. Tayo Denton joined me to talk about menopause, midlife, and what happens when Black women take their wellness back into their own hands.
From radiologist to menopause strategist, her story is one of disruption, reclamation, and deep wisdom.
Next week’s Soul Sync episode is a quiet invitation.
As we step into the swirl of the holiday season—expectations, gatherings, old roles, shifting identities—I felt called to offer something different:
A pause.
A breath.
A moment to return to yourself before the world asks for more.
In this solo episode, I’m sharing the biggest lessons that emerged from Roundtable 1 and why this particular season asks us to slow down, listen inward, and reclaim our capacity. You’ll also receive a grounding SoulSync practice you can use anytime the season begins to pull on you.
If you need a reset… if you’re carrying more than you’re saying out loud… or if you simply want to enter the holidays with intention instead of obligation—this episode is for you…

Breathe first. Then step into the season on your terms.
The holidays can be heavy for many of us—especially women carrying invisible labor, unspoken transitions, and the weight of being “the strong one.”
If there is someone in your life who could use a softer corner of the internet…
a space to breathe, reflect, and be held…
you can gift them this community.
Invite a sister, friend, or colleague into a year of grounding, truth-telling, and soul alignment.
Reflection Prompt: The Wisdom of the Middle
This week, I invite you to pause and ask:
What needs tending—not fixing—right now?
Where am I in the “middle” of something sacred?
Can I honor this part of the path as holy too?
The middle is where roots deepen.
Let it be enough to simply be here.
