Conversations from the Barrel

Featuring Deborah A. Carter

Our conversation with Deborah A. Carter challenged us to take an honest look at the dynamics of friendship, support, jealousy, and the “crab barrel mentality” that can quietly shape our relationships. Through candid dialogue and reflection, members explored not only the “crabs” they may have encountered in their own lives, but also the moments where they may have unintentionally played that role themselves.

Watch the replay above and revisit the powerful “Crabmates” visual below shared during the session as a tool for reflection, awareness, and deeper sisterhood.
