Here to help her differentiate between the illusion of power vs. having it forreal, are her friends, stylist J. Bolin and photographer Cyndi B. Chhiiillleee, this episode is full of nuggets! 'Cause what better way to explore the "look" of a woman when she knows she's powerful than with two gurus who insert their images on the daily? What W.E. know for sure is — power is embodied, NOT flaunted! And all power ain't good power! Tune in and prepare to kiki as they lowkey let us in on their group chat. Stay until the end to hear SJR share the cliff notes from her April 30th book release, Power Moves! PRE-ORDER your copy today at https://www.thomasnelson.com/p/power-moves/.
