Sista's In Spirit

Where Attention Leads, Life Follows:

Living With Intention, Not Urgency.

• Before the vision boards are pinned up.

• Before the affirmations are repeated.

Four Pillars. One Intention.

A Year of Alignment for Women Who Lead.

Every January, intention meets reality. Studies show that nearly 80 percent of New Year goals fail by February, not because women lack discipline or vision, but because goals are often set in isolation rather than alignment. Work goals sit over here. Health intentions sit over there. Relationships, spirituality and money are treated as “nice to have” instead of essential foundations.

The 12 Female Archetypes:

A Map of Who You Are and Who You Are Becoming.

Every woman carries a story beneath the story.

A set of instincts, strengths, wounds and wisdom that shape how she leads, loves, protects and evolves. What this archetype image reveals is not personality, it is pattern recognition. It is the science of identity.

Neuroscience tells us that identity is not fixed.

Claim Your Peace. Reclaim Your Power.

There comes a moment in every woman’s life when survival is no longer enough. The world can pull, demand, drain and distract, but your Higher Self whispers a different instruction. Come home to yourself.

• Peace is not passive.

• Peace is a decision.

• Peace is a discipline.

7 Reasons Why We Must Stop Using the Label “Strong Black Women"

Words shape narratives. Narratives shape expectations. Expectations shape how Black women are seen, supported and allowed to exist.

The label “Strong Black Woman” may sound like praise, but it often becomes a cage. It places women on emotional pedestals while denying them softness, vulnerability, protection and the freedom to be fully human.

This feature explores seven powerful reasons why this label must be challenged and retired. It highlights the emotional labour, the cultural burden and the silent harm that can arise when resilience is assumed rather than supported.

This is not about rejecting strength. It is about redefining it on Black women’s terms.

Midweek Reset

Releasing Negative Energy

Even if Monday slipped by, it is never too late to begin again.

Every moment is a new opportunity to think a new thought, choose peace and invite joy.

Take this as your midweek reset, breathe deeply, release the tension and realign with your calm. Whether you listen to uplifting music, clear clutter, journal your thoughts or visualise a bright light washing away stress , every small act is an affirmation of self-love.

G.R.O.W.

A Leadership Journey for Women of Spirit

Growth is not just about adding new achievements to your life. It is about subtraction, releasing what no longer serves you, so that what remains is powerful, authentic and unstoppable.

In Sista’s in Spirit, we know that every leader must make peace with the old before she can step boldly into the new. That’s the heart of G.R.O.W. – Get Rid of Old Ways.

It begins with getting grounded. Leaders must first know who they are and what they stand for. When your roots run deep in values and purpose, no storm can uproot you.

Listening to the Wisdom Within

There is a voice inside every woman that speaks long before the mind can catch up. It does not shout,  it hums, steady, certain and alive with the lessons of every challenge you have already survived. That voice is your intuition and it carries the quiet authority of both science and spirit.

In career, intuition shows up as the sudden clarity that tells you a new role will stretch you or that a team’s culture is not safe, even when the job description sparkles. Neuroscience calls this “rapid cognition,” the brain’s ability to process complex cues faster than conscious thought, helping you pivot before burnout or bias shuts a door.

In business, intuition is the quickening in your chest when a deal feels wrong or the calm you feel when an opportunity is right. Research on entrepreneurial decision-making finds that leaders who balance data with…

Most People Don’t Try. But What If Trying And Failing Is The Most Radical Success Of All?

We often speak of success as if it’s reserved for the chosen few. The brave. The lucky. The unbreakable.

But more often than not, the gap between those who succeed and those who don’t isn’t talent. It isn’t timing. It’s belief.

The truth is, we don’t go after our career goals, our personal callings or our business dreams not because we aren’t capable but because somewhere along the way, we were taught not to believe. Taught to seek safety over purpose. Taught to avoid failure like it’s a death sentence, rather than what it truly is, data.

Think about it. We are wired by culture to fear loss more than we crave gain. We are told to shrink our ambitions to fit into boxes built by other people’s expectations. And so, when the…
