Hey, homies! I’m Eboni, a recovering victim of “Black Girl Burnout.” Yep, I just made that up but it’s a thing now. See how manifestation works? I digress. Black Girl Burnout = the burnout a magical Black girl feels from aggressively pursuing “Black Excellence.”
I did all the “right” things: I was at the top of my class, graduated from an elite university, and had a decent-paying corporate gig. Sounds good, right?
Not so. I was low-key miserable because it felt like a piece of myself was missing and I knew I had more to contribute to the world. I was working hard to obtain the American Dream and support my loved ones, with very little thought dedicated to what *eye* actually wanted to do.
Little did I know that wealthy white dudes had astrologers on retainer to help them navigate the life questions with which I was grappling. I started studying my astrological birth chart and learned to make peace with all aspects of myself, fall in love with the real Eboni, and begin to trust my inner knowing.
