Hey sis!
Navigate life with the rhythm of your strengths leading the way.
Welcome to Strengths & Sounds
These cards aren't just about affirmations; they're about never forgetting your gifts and power.
Remember the ULTIMATE way to tell someone how you felt about them back in the day?
You made 'em a mixtape!
So I curated these cards to celebrate the resilience, beauty, and infinite potential of brilliant Black women like you.
They're for the girlies who have always known their answer to the
question, "When did you fall in love with hip hop?"
It's for those who boss so hard at home and in their office they deserve a brag and bougie reminder of just how dope they are!
They're for the mountain-moving, mustard seed-faith having women like my mommy Kim, or the no-detail-spared, moment-seizing women like my Gramie, Dottie.
✨Black women are magical.✨
Strengths-based philosophy (and plain ol' life experience in general) tell us when we align with our strengths, life is infused with more ease, excellence, and enjoyment - and who deserves to experience that on a daily more than you?
These cards, and this playlist, are my love letter to Black women - I hope you feel seen, loved, and affirmed - sis, you are so talented!
With so much love,
Shanell

A 3-PART HARMONY - Each card includes an affirmation inspired by lyrics to some of our favorite songs, summaries of the 4 "Brilliance Realms" you flex daily, and a beautiful embodiment of a Black woman displaying her strength.
ILLUMINATING - Color-coding appearing near each talent area links to broader areas of leadership outlined as "Brilliance Realms".
EFFORTLESS - Cards arrive in alphabetical order so you can easily find your top 5 or any theme.
VARIED - Rotate through for a fresh perspective and "take what you need".
You're too brilliant to be boxed in!
