Black Excellence Burnout

We Talk Back

About this episode

AJ Holiday and Tam Bam open up about personal grief and ongoing health challenges. The conversation explores the weight of political violence, systemic racism, and the pressures of Black excellence in today’s society. They also reflect on generational differences in work ethic, highlighting how cultural expectations around productivity often clash with the need for self-care and they also emphasize the importance of setting boundaries, prioritizing mental health, and redefining success on their own terms.
