In this powerful and necessary episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a topic too many avoid: Black Fatigue—not as a trend, but as a trap.We’re not sugarcoating. We’re unpacking the Top 5 reasons why this mindset lingers and why it's being passed down like a generational curse:It’s the Invention of an Excuse – From the locker room to the classroom, I’ve seen it all: missed practices, skipped assignments, and a never-ending stream of justifications.It Caters to Laziness – Don’t confuse rest with neglect. Laziness disguised as “burnout” is killing momentum.It Keeps You in a Comfort Zone – The term "Black Community" gets thrown around, but are we enabling mediocrity instead of demanding progress?It Becomes Entertainment – The Caitlin Clark vs. Angel Reese drama is a distraction. Let’s stop mistaking clickbait for cultural advancement.It Creates a Bond with Children (That They Don’t Need) – Your child is not your friend. They need guidance, not a partner in complaining.This episode is about truth over trends and accountability over applause.🎧 Tap in now and let’s challenge the comfort zone together:Watch the full livestream here📥 Download the Free 90-Day Playbook: https://freeguide.makeyamove.com💼 Book a Workshop for Your Team: https://makeyamove.com#MoveSwiftlyPodcast #BlackFatigue #WinTrapreneur #NoExcuses #LeadershipDevelopment #CulturalAccountability
