A Journaling & Reflective Leadership Workshop for Black Women Executives
Black Love sometimes looks like slowing down long enough to listen to yourself.
Finding Our Superpower is a guided journaling and reflective leadership workshop created for Black women executives who want space to reconnect with their inner wisdom, honor their lived experience, and practice self-love without performance or pressure.
Grounded in themes from Dr. Menah Pratt’s award-winning book, Blackwildgirl: A Writer’s Journey to Take Back Her Superpower, this session invites participants into a gentle, intentional journaling practice—one that centers reflection, reclamation, and self-trust as leadership tools.
This is a journals-in-hand experience. Participants are encouraged to bring a journal, notebook, or blank pages and a pen or pencil. Through guided prompts, framing reflections, and optional moments of sharing, participants will engage in writing as a way to explore identity, leadership, and the wisdom forged across Black womanhood.
No prior journaling experience is required.
If you’ve never journaled before, this is a low-stakes, supportive space to try it for the first time
If journaling is already part of your practice, this is an opportunity to deepen and elevate how you use it for reflection, grounding, and leadership clarity
Participants will experience:
A calm, confidential virtual space rooted in care and agency
Guided journaling inspired by Blackwildgirl and our lived experience as Black women
Creative engagement focused on insight—not writing skill or artistic ability
Permission to engage at your own depth, in your own way
This workshop is not about fixing or optimizing yourself. It is about remembering what you already carry.
Black Love, expressed as self-love, reflection, and reclamation.
Facilitated by Dr. Menah Pratt, JD, PhD Author of Blackwildgirl: A Writer’s Journey to Take Back Her Superpower

About the book:
Blackwildgirl: A Writer’s Journey to Take Back Her Superpower: Summary and Synopsis Through 45 years of journals, poems, and letters to Love beginning at the age of 8, this candid, raw, and unconventional genre-bending autobiography with acts, stages, scenes, and lessons learned shares the story of one woman’s lifelong journey to reclaim Blackwildgirl, her queen superpower that she was separated from as part of a childhood bargain made by her parents. Surviving a twelve-stage initiation, Blackwildgirl, who was buried like a seed, fights against strong and powerful weeds seeking to strangle and suffocate her and becomes a wild woman warrior. This book is for anyone who wants to understand the experiences of girls as they seek to become wild women—women who are fierce and fearless; women who are warriors for themselves and others; women who are committed to cultivating and excavating their spiritual gardens and tilling their spiritual souls to blossom and bloom; and women who want to move from invisible underground lives to aboveground lives of impact and influence by reclaiming their original power and role as women in the world.

2025 Independent Author Network Book of the Year (Biography and Autobiography- Blackwildgirl)
