Black women generate the energy and grit that uplift our families and communities, providing fuel for movements for change—but who supports and nourishes Black women? This women-focused panel centers on self-care strategies for addressing the emotional and physical burdens experienced by Black women who often serve as caregivers, leaders, and backbone support. Join us for a candid conversation on boundaries, healing, and regeneration, as well as building systems that nurture the women who show up for everyone else.

Panelists: DeBlair Tate, CMSgt; Military Leader, Fitness & Wellness Expert and Executive Coach
