CONFRONTING THE BAG LADY:
Unpacking Our Pretty Purses

A Virtual Reclamation Series for Black Women Leaders
May 19th-23rd | 12pm-1pm EST 

You're a brilliant and high-achieving Black woman leader or entrepreneur.

​

You've led through silence and performed through pressure despite challenges and barriers.

​

You’ve made it look effortless… but it hasn’t been easy.

​

You’ve normalized and upgraded your emotional trash bags for “pretty luxury bags.”

But deep down, you know it’s time to put them down.

 

 

 

Confronting the Bag Lady: Unpacking Our Pretty Purses is a FREE 5-day virtual reclamation series created just for you. It is a sacred, affirming, and transformative space to:

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

  • Be intentional in unpacking what’s been heavy and harmful

  • Release fear, negative self-talk, imposter syndrome, and people-pleasing

  • Remember who you are and reconnect to the woman behind the titles and roles

  • Lead from inner alignment, with clarity and confidence

  • Be in community with other powerful Black women leaders and entrepreneurs

Who Am I?

LEADERSHIP COACH.  BEST-SELLING AUTHOR.  EXPLORER.

I am Dr. Tonicia Freeman-Foster. I believe everyone should have the tools and access to thrive, experience total wellness, and live to their fullest potential. As Black women, no one will prioritize our well-being like we can, so we must intentionally do this for ourselves. I know what it feels like to navigate the weight of perfectionism, toxic workplaces, negative self-talk, the fear of failure, and the expectations to carry it all in silence because you are the strongest. 

​

I am a Black woman striving and thriving! I am a national leadership development consultant, coach, and mentor specializing in transformational leadership experiences. With 20+ years of senior leadership experiences, I help mid- to executive-level leaders and entrepreneurs navigate challenges and barriers so they can achieve their goals and confidently lead their teams to wild success!

 

I am a certified coach, healing circle practitioner, and justice, equity, diversity, inclusion, and human-centered leadership practitioner. I have been in formal leadership roles for most of my career and have often been the only person who looked like me in the room. I am a cancer warrior who continues to learn and embrace the power of wellness. I am also a proud best-selling author of Navigating Rough SEAS ~ Soul Eroding Assimilation-Forcing Systems: A Playbook for Navigating Workplace Trauma and Reclaiming Power, Wellness, and Joy. My collective experiences inform my work and fuel my fire for supporting leaders. 

​​

Okay. That's enough about me. Let's focus on YOU!

​

I want to see you remove the weight holding you back from achieving your wildest dreams. Why? Because you can. You were created for this moment in time! You were created to lead positive change in the lives of others and, ultimately, the world. Are you ready to reclaim your peace, power, wellness, and joy?

 

See you at Confronting the Bag Lady: Unpacking Our Pretty Purses!

​

What If You Just Stick With The Status Quo?

If you continue to carry old bags that no longer serve you well, you won't have the capacity to embrace new blessings and opportunities fully.

No one can carry heavy weight forever. It's cute for now. However, the weight of your purses will begin to cause or exacerbate physical unwellness, emotional and spiritual harm. 

​

The longer we allow something to endure, the harder it becomes to unlearn and un-normalize it. What if your dreams are on the other side of your willingness to change?

​​​

You could run out of time. Tomorrow is not promised to any of us. Don't allow your greatness to become graveyard fertilizer.
