Putting Down the Cape: A Healing Journey for Black Women

*Putting Down the Cape* is an invitation to Black women to release the weight of unrealistic expectations, overburdened lives, and the trauma of having to carry it all. Written by Tamira Wimbish Valley, this book explores the mental health challenges and systemic pressures that Black women face, shedding light on the *Strong Black Woman* schema and the urgent need for healing and self-care.

With compassion and insight, Tamira draws from personal experiences, cultural wisdom, and academic research to offer a transformative narrative about the strength in vulnerability, the power of rest, and the importance of creating spaces for Black women to heal. This book is not just a read; it’s a call to action, inviting you to take off the cape and embrace your humanity.
