These are just some hashtags you’d find trending on social media, and we’re here for them!

As Black women, we’ve always known that we’re poppin', from our skin, to our hair, to our shape to our entire culture. It’s just taken the rest of society time to catch up. While for us, our culture is a way of life, for others some aspects of our culture seem to be a fad or trending topic to them.

Being a black woman in this world is a beautiful thing. However, the hardships that come with having brown skin come in many forms. For instance, finding foundation can be a hassle because not a lot of brands on the market cater to brown skin tones. Going to a yoga class can make a black woman feel inferior because she may feel out of her element if she's the only woman of color in the room. As black women, we need support systems. This includes having the right businesses that care about us. Luckily, there are plenty these days. Here are five brands that truly love, support, and respect black women:

The Benefits of Saying "No" and Creating Boundaries
“No” is a complete sentence. N-O-Period. These two letters pack a powerful punch. For countless women, the inability to say ‘no’ results in fatigue and other complex outcomes. Early on in our childhood, we’re taught unrealistic expectations for how girls should behave. Over time, these well-meaning principles, which were instilled in us, spiral into incessant people-pleasing. Why is it so easy to cater to the needs of others while our own needs and deepest desires go unfulfilled? One answer is our inability to communicate boundaries in our personal and professional lives.
Har to believe, but we’re a third of the way into 2020. Have you checked in on your spiritual, mental, physical, and financial goals? If you’ve fallen off track or need to up the ante, now is the time to refresh and refocus. The “In My Bag” playlist is the instant ego-booster you never knew you needed! Whether you’re getting dressed for work, lacing up for a workout, or need a quick-pick-me up, this playlist will remind you who you are and who you do it for. Even when you're feeling self-conscious or stuck in a rut, be confident in knowing that what you bring to the table, no one else is serving. Go hard and stay in your bag, Sis.
Even though social distancing has made it more difficult to link up with your crew, you can keep your circles tight by bringing everyone together for a game night. Choose a convenient video app like Google Hangouts, Zoom, or Houseparty.
