PUTTING DOWN THE CAPE
Life After the Cape
What would life look like if you finally laid the cape down?
For generations, Black women have been celebrated for their strength, resilience, and sacrifice — but too often that strength has come at the cost of rest, joy, and wholeness. Putting Down the Cape is more than a podcast; it’s a movement. Hosted by Rev. Tamira Valley, this series invites women everywhere to release the crushing expectations of “superwoman,” rediscover their true identity, and step boldly into a life of clarity, peace, and abundance.
Through scripture, storytelling, real-life reflections, and practical tools, each episode helps you name the capes you carry, put them down, and embrace rhythms of healing and joy. Whether you’re navigating family demands, workplace pressures, or the unspoken rules of “always being strong,” you’ll find space here to breathe, to rest, and to imagine a fresh new way of living.
