What if you're not stuck because you lack what you need?In this special Sistas Let's Talk episode, we introduce you to the Aplomb Woman through a poem written for the woman who is daring and confident on the outside, but quietly asking herself, "Why am I not there yet?"She's the woman who has survived things she once thought were impossible. She's figured things out. She's helped other people. She's learned from experience. She's been resourceful.In this episode, you'll hear:• Why capable women sometimes settle for less than they know they can have• How past experiences can become evidence that you're capable of more• Why being "too old" may not be the truth you're telling yourself• How women can recognize strengths they've overlooked• Why sharing your story can help another woman avoid your mistakes• What it means to give yourself grace while still taking action• Why the woman you call "ordinary" may be carrying extraordinary resilience• An invitation to recognize yourself as an Aplomb WomanThe poem"Before You Call Her Ordinary"This poem was written for the woman who knows there is more in her but hasn't quite figured out how to get there yet.If you recognize yourself somewhere in these words, welcome.You might just be Aplomb.The conversation continuesThis is the beginning of our introduction to the Aplomb Woman. Over the coming episodes, we'll spend time getting to know her—her questions, contradictions, courage, humor, faith, resilience, and the things she is still figuring out.What part of the poem sounded like you?Tell us in the comments.And if you know another woman who needs this reminder, send this episode to her.Don't call her ordinary.Sistas Let's TalkConnect with us:Website: www.Sltpodcast.comFacebook: facebook.com/sistasletstalkInstagram: instagram.com/sistas_letstalkSubscribe and listen to the Sistasletstalk Media Podcast HERE: 💻 YT: @sistasletstalk 🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3nrfhyh
