The Safe Space Podcast
Conversations that center Black Women’s mental and emotional wellbeing—one story, one strategy, one safe space at a time.
This is your space to rest, reflect, and reclaim your mental and emotional wellbeing—without guilt, without apology.
Hosted by Courtney J. Fulton, Wellness Advocate for Black Women, this podcast dives into the real-life experiences, challenges, and victories of Black Women navigating today’s world. Each episode features honest conversations with guests who bring lived experience, cultural insight, and practical strategies for sustaining yourself in every season of life.
We talk about it all—protecting your peace during political crisis, setting boundaries without guilt, navigating (peri)menopause, redefining self-care in a recession, and embracing life’s transitions with grace and resilience.
Whether you’re an empty nester rediscovering yourself, a community leader pouring into others, or simply a Black Woman ready to prioritize your mental health, you’ll find affirming stories, actionable tools, and the reminder that you’re not alone.

The Safe Space Podcast
Season 3 Ep. 4.- My COVID Journey
Honestly, this episode is one that I debated sharing with you all as it’s deeply personal. In the end my heart spoke and I knew I needed to share my journey with COVID to give a voice to all the others that are affected and dealing with “long haul” COVID effects.
It seems that everyone knows someone that’s been affected by COVID. I share with you my experience and the challenges I endured (and am currently still going through) in hopes of creating awareness and inspiring others to give themselves grace and to help others understand what life is like with long term effects.
3 tips for self care:
- Know your body- You are an expert on you
- Advocate for yourself- SPEAK UP if something is not right
- Have a support system (family, friends, neighbors)
- Outsource tasks (house cleaning, meals, errands)
