Back to EpisodesTHE PSYCHOLOGY OF US, Faith, The Church & Identity — Covered or Constrained?
Description
For many Black women, faith and the church have been foundational.
But what happens when the same space that offers covering…also creates pressure?
In Episode 4 of The Psychology of Us, we explore the role of faith in shaping identity, self-esteem, and emotional expression.
This conversation unpacks:
- faith as a source of structure, hope, and belonging
- performance versus authenticity in spiritual spaces
- the pressure of “being chosen,” called, or seen as strong
- and the difference between healing and hiding in faith environments
Faith should be a place of freedom.
This episode asks:
Do you feel safe being honest… or do you feel pressure to appear whole?
