Black Girl Recess Logo

You’ve been holding it together long enough.

Three hours. No agenda. No performance. No one needing anything from you.

Just you, a room full of Black women who already get it, and permission to breathe.

BLK GRL Recess a SoulMed experience

You used to know how to play.

Before the bills.

Before the responsibilities.

Before you became the person everyone leans on.

Before you got so good at holding it together that you forgot what it felt like to let it go.

BLKGirl Recess is one afternoon that belongs entirely to you.

Not to your to-do list.

Not to your inbox.

Not to anyone who needs something from you.

Just you.

You'll walk in and something will shift.

Maybe it's when your hands are busy making something beautiful, something that tells the story of where you've been and who you're becoming.

Maybe it's when you write something true on a wall and someone you've never met nods like she already knew.

Maybe it's when the room fills up with laughter and it sounds like home. You'll feel it. You'll know. This is a room built by Black women, for Black women.

No explaining yourself here.

No shrinking.

No performing strength you don't feel right now.

Just softness.

Just honesty.

Just the kind of ease you forgot you were allowed to have.

You don't have to snap back into real life so fast.

Come be a girl again, even just for an afternoon.

WHAT THIS IS

This is not a conference.

Not a panel. Not a workshop where someone teaches you how to optimize yourself.

Not a networking event where you have to be on.

This is recess. Remember recess? That feeling of being let outside, no rubric, no deliverable, no one grading how you showed up. Just your own laugh in the air. Your own body taking up space without apologizing for it.

You forgot you were still allowed to have that.

BLKGirl Recess is one afternoon built around reminding you.

We're not here to fix you. We're not here to hustle you toward your next level.

We're here to give you a room, and let you be a girl again, even just for a few hours.

WHAT'S INSIDE THE ROOM

You walk in.

Someone hands you a drink. Not because you earned it. Just because you showed up and that's enough.

Then you go wherever you need to go.

Create Your Color Story Your hands will be busy making something. A bracelet, colors you choose that aren't random, they mean something. You'll work through a color psychology worksheet that tells you more about yourself than you were ready to know. You leave wearing it on your wrist.

The Reflection Walls Prompts waiting for your handwriting. Rest. Becoming. What you're releasing. What joy actually feels like in your body. You write something true. A woman you've never met reads it and nods because she could have written it herself. That moment is the whole point.

Dreaming Out Loud A recording corner. A prompt. A camera. You say something real — about where you've been, what you're building, who you're becoming. No audience. No pressure. Just your own voice, finally out loud.

The Grazing Table Because you deserve something good today. Food, women, and conversation that doesn't have to go anywhere.

Soul Notes & Soul Healing Guided Journal Available in the room when she calls to you. Some women leave with them. Either way, the words will find you when you need them.

I'm Brandi Williams.

Founder of SoulMed Holistic Health Collaborative. Accredited PR professional. Integrative nutrition health coach … a Black woman who spent a long time being very, very good at not stopping.

I built BLKGirl Recess because I needed it first.

I know what it costs to keep showing up for everyone else when your own cup is on empty. I've sat in rooms that said they were for us but didn't quite feel like it. And I believe that rest, play, and softness aren't luxuries — they're the foundation everything else gets built on.

Every experience is intimate. Every room is intentional. Every seat is for a woman who deserves to stop, even once.

I hope you'll be in one of them.
