84: Awakening Out of Survival Mode: Consciousness, Identity & the Path to Wholeness

In this powerful and deeply affirming conversation, Dr. Holda Gueye-Weinstein — board-certified OB-GYN, integrative healing practitioner, and founder of Visionary Women’s Health — joins host Anekia Nicole for a transformational dialogue on awakening, whole-body healing, ancestral remembrance, and the archetypes that traps that keep Black women in cycles of burnout and fragmentation.

Rooted in lived experience, medical training, and spiritual insight, Dr. Holda illuminates how emotional and spiritual suppression shows up in our bodies, how archetypes like the “strong Black woman” wage war on our nervous systems, and how awakening shifts us from survival toward liberation and co-creation.

What We Cover:

• Emotions are sacred messengers—not problems to “fix.”
• Archetypes like the “overachiever” or “strong Black woman” are spiritual traps.
• The “warrior consciousness” is a transitional but exhausting stage.
• Illness can be a wake-up call.
• Ancestral disconnection is part of the spiritual wound.
• Liberation comes from creation, not resistance.
• Healing is about remembering.
• The sacred truth: You are not broken.
