Too many high-achieving women of color are stuck in cycles of over giving, over performing, and people-pleasing—not because they're broken, but because they're surviving. In this compelling episode, Brig uncovers how these patterns are rooted in history and trauma, not personal failure, and makes the case for a radical shift: nervous system recalibration.

When you learn to feel safe in your body and life, you unlock the freedom to dream boldly, love deeply, and prioritize your well-being—without guilt.

This is the heart of the UNKAGED™ Revolution: a movement to help women of color reclaim their identity, reset their nervous systems, and step fully into their power.

If you’re ready to protect your peace, live unapologetically, and start your healing journey—this episode is your invitation.

If you're ready to reclaim your power and step fully into who you were always meant to be, this episode is your first step. Tune in and discover the freedom of a managed mind.
