Behind the achievements, the polished appearance, and the strength… there is often silence. This episode explores the emotional toll and unspoken battles many high-functioning Black women face — from anxiety and coping mechanisms to what gets hidden behind the phrase “I’m fine.”

🎯 In this episode:
– The truth about emotional eating that no diet program talks about
– How silence, shame, and performance keep Black women stuck
– What therapy revealed about her pain — and why it almost scared her away
– The cultural exhaustion of pretending to be “strong”

AfroFit tells the truth — even when the story is still in progress.
