Upcoming Roundtable Discussions
A nurturing sanctuary for Black women to lead authentic career and life dialogues.
The Glass Ceiling
July 7, 2026 12PM EST/ 9AM PST
In this roundtable discussion, we’ll unpack what the “glass ceiling” really looks like for Black women in corporate: the unspoken rules, stalled promotions, and invisible barriers. Together, we’ll name the patterns, share real stories, and explore practical strategies to advocate for yourself, build allies, and create pathways to the roles and recognition you deserve.
Weathering—The Hidden Cost of Chronic Stress
August 4, 2026 12PM EST/ 9AM PST
In this thought-provoking roundtable, we'll explore the concept of weathering—the cumulative impact of chronic stress, racism, and systemic inequities on the physical, emotional, and mental health of Black women. Black women often carry invisible burdens that extend far beyond the workplace. Together, we'll discuss how these experiences shape our well-being, identify practical strategies for restoration and resilience, and create space for honest conversation, healing, and collective support.
Isolation and Exclusion
September 1, 2026 12PM EST/ 9AM PST
This roundtable discussion centers the loneliness, exclusion, and “only one in the room” experiences Black women often face in corporate spaces. Together, we’ll name how isolation shows up day to day, share stories in a safe community, and explore practices to build support, deepen connection, and create workplaces where you don’t have to shrink to belong.
