Soft Living for Black and Brown Women at Work: Overcoming Hard Times

In the hustle of the business world, a new story is taking shape. It's about being kind to yourself and showing your true feelings, even when it's tough. Work can be tricky for Black and Brown women with many unspoken rules. Choosing to be gentle and kind isn't just about looking after yourself; it's a bold move.

Let's Talk Real Life

Work isn't just about getting the job done; it can feel like a constant fight for fairness and respect. You might put on a tough exterior because you think you have to, to keep from getting hurt. But what if being kind and gentle could also be your secret weapon?

Breaking Down the Tough Act

People often think you've got to be hard as nails to make it. But this hits Black and Brown women harder because they also have to deal with stereotypes about their race and gender. Always being seen as the tough one isn't just hard to keep up with; it can also quietly chip away at you.

Strength in Kindness

Being kind doesn't mean you're not strong. It's a bold choice to treat yourself with love and stand up for your peace of mind. It means knowing when enough is enough and taking the time you need to stay happy and healthy.

Simple Ways to Live Softer at Work

1. What Does Success Look Like to You? Think about what being successful really means. It's not just about job titles or awards. It's also about enjoying your work, finding balance, and being proud of what you do.
2. Be Open: Try sharing your thoughts in meetings or discussing work challenges with someone you trust. Being open can help you connect with others and find support in places you didn't expect.
3. Get Smart with Feelings: Emotional smarts can be a game-changer at work. They help you deal with tricky situations smoothly and keep calm under pressure.
4. Set Your Limits: Knowing when to say no and take a break is important. You don't have to do it all.
5. Find Your People: Look for others who get what you're going through. There's a lot of power in sticking together.
6. Stay Calm and Present: Bring some calm into your day with things like meditation. It can help you feel grounded amid the office chaos.
7. Ask for Help: It's okay to get help when you need it. An executive coach who gets the challenges faced by Black and Brown women can give you advice that's right for you.

Getting the Right Support

If you're feeling weighed down, remember you're not alone. As an Executive Trauma Coach, I get what you're up against. I see the tiredness you hide and how hard it can be to keep up the tough act.

We can work together on plans that celebrate who you are, use your strengths, and make room for you to be kinder to yourself. We'll deal with the past by acknowledging it and finding ways to help you move forward confidently and kindly.

Let's Do This Together

Choose soft living. It's your quiet way of shaking things up and finding a happier way to work. Softer does NOT make you a doormat; just the opposite, it gives you the master key to the door! Get in touch, and let's start this new chapter together. Your kindness is not a weakness—it's a source of your power.

Meet Anita Charlot - your conscious leadership consultant, trainer, and all-around advisor for social and racially-conscious leaders and businesses. Anita digs deep into the big "whys" of your business, walking you through how your purpose, values, and social impact can go hand in hand with your bottom line.

She's all about helping leaders like you make sense of your place in the world, using real-world strategies, metaphysical insights, and philosophical principles to navigate decisions that sync up your business actions with what matters most for your Black and Brown employees, particularly women in leadership.

Anita is passionate about guiding leaders through the ins and outs of allyship - from what it means to be an ally to the different levels of it. She creates a "no judgment" zone for you to ask all those "uncomfortable questions" and helps you create a supportive environment that forms a "glass bridge" instead of a "glass cliff" for Black and Brown women in leadership roles.

Anita is also the go-to person for Powerful Women of Color who've dealt with corporate trauma and are looking to bounce back and thrive, no matter where they work. It's YOUR TIME, sis, to learn how to turn your pain into your purpose and stop fighting to receive what is rightfully yours.
