A new challenge is on the rise as we return to work in a way that greatly affects women who are mothers, caregivers, or in need of flexible work options.  Flexible work for women leads to a better, more sustainable work environment for everyone.   Tune in for "Advocating for Women at Work" with Delphine Carter.  

In this episode, we are joined by Author and Therapist, Giovanna Burgess Geathers, as she shares principles from her newly released book "Epiphany: A Journey of Self Discovery." Self work is an inside-out job that requires necessary reflection and adjustments. It is not easy work, but essential for us to have the real essence of the lives we are meant to have.

No is a sentence all by itself, but it is a word that many struggle to say. No should come with no guilt, shame or apology. Often times we say yes to others at our own expense when it does not come from a sincere burnden-free place. It's time to stand in your unapologetic NO.

Tune in as host, Melissa D. White shares her struggles with using the word NO, and how to overcome it.
