To My Sisters

When did every season become a season to ‘lock in’? This week on To My Sisters, Courtney and Renée ask whether the Winter Arc, 75 Hard, and the pressure to finish the year strong are helping us build discipline or giving hustle culture a new name. We get into when a reset genuinely helps, why starting over can feel more exciting than sticking with a habit, and what it looks like to take your goals seriously while making room for rest. Plus, in this week’s sister dilemma, we talk about finding your voice at work after microaggressions have knocked your confidence. Sisters, has a lock-in season ever changed your habits for good, or did it leave you feeling like you needed another reset? 00:00 Is ‘Locking In’ the New Hustle Culture?3:39 Sister Dilemma | Speaking Up After Workplace Microaggressions15:35 The Winter Arc & 75 Hard | When Does a Reset Actually Help?18:40 When Discipline Turns Into Self-Punishment25:28 Why Starting Over Feels So Good32:05 What to Do When You Feel Behind on Your Goals34:50 Can You Keep the Results You’re Chasing?38:56 Stewardship | Start With What You Have44:05 Who Are You Trying to Prove Yourself To?49:40 What Does Your Life Look Like When You’re Resting?51:18 How Courtney Reviews Her Goals Every 90 Days💌 Join the TMS Mailing List: https://www.tomysisters.com📧 E-mail us your dilemmas and episode suggestions: [email protected] 💌 JOIN US ON SOCIAL MEDIA!

Would you pay $1,000 for a sew-in—and what should that price actually include? This week, your online sisters Courtney and Renée unpack the viral hair appointment controversy and the bigger questions it raises about Black women’s relationship with beauty, money and status. From surprise salon fees and “charging your worth” to the pressure to look expensive before building financial security, we discuss where luxury ends and exploitation begins, while giving talented hairstylists their due. Plus, we respond to a sister torn between her loving but unemployed boyfriend of four years and a financially stable man who’s reappeared.
