🔴 MSNBC, Joy Reid, & Idaho Town Hall and White Women's Passivity– What It All Means for Black Women of The 92 Percent!

🚨 White women lose their political grip in real time while Black Women of the 92% coalesce and strategize as a collective.

What a week! MSNBC plays in Joy Reid's face while white women watch one of their own get dragged out of a town hall in Idaho, plus my candid convo with white women--they and the White Lotus the TV series finally say the quiet parts out loud.

In this episode of Hey, It’s Halicue, I break down:

✅ Joy Reid’s cancellation and why Black women are DONE with corporate news institutions and legacy media

✅ White women admit they have NO sisterhood (yes, they said it themselves!)

✅ Idaho town hall chaos – why white women's individualism and learned passivity weaken their political will

✅ Why + How the 92% are moving as a COLLECTIVE force

✅ Black Women's pivot to prioritizing ourselves is the most powerful political move yet

🔥 We’re not asking. We’re not humbling ourselves. We’re taking our power back.

🚨 JOURNAL PROMPTS INCLUDED: Stay until the end for deep reflections and journal prompts on rejection, Black Women's collective care, and stepping into our political power.

Less Access, More Peace

In this episode Less Access, More Peace, Halicue invites Black Women of The 92 Percent to call their energy back Home. Join Halicue for a critical discussion about the ways Black Women have been conditioned to perform safety and survival, the exhausting emotional labor Black Women of The 92 Percent have taken on, and the quiet but radical act of removing ourselves from toxic people, spaces and institutions that do not honor us. This is not about isolation—it’s about intentionality, choosing ourselves, leaning into community support, and recognizing that for Black Women, prioritizing rest is not just self-care; it’s our new political strategy.

If you’ve been feeling the pressure to overextend, this episode is for you. It’s time to shift from holding it all together to holding space for ourselves.

"Hey, It’s Halicue" is both a video + audio podcast for The 92 percent—Black Women leading a quiet revolution of Rest, Joy, and Rebellion. This podcast is here to ensure that Black Women keep choosing ourselves, through laughter, reflection, and meaningful conversations and to help us remain elevated, detached from toxic systems and fully aligned with our highest potential. The truth is that many Black Women have no idea how to rest. But this podcast is created by Black Women of the 92 Percent to help you navigate this collective awakening. Where rebellion means stepping away from grind culture, joy becomes our act of resistance, and rest is a Black Woman's revolutionary right. Through laughter, reflection, and meaningful conversations, Hey, It’s Halicue helps the 92 Percent remain elevated, detached from systems that no longer serve us, and fully aligned with our highest potential.

Hello, my beautiful 92 percenters and to everyone following who supports rest and regeneration for Black Women.

I’m Halicue—mystic mama, recovering overachiever, professional joy-seeker, and now your host of Hey, It’s Halicue, my brand-new weekly audio + video podcast and community designed especially for the 92 percent.

Who are the 92 percent? Glad you asked. We’re the incredible, magical Black women who admittedly, became accustomed to dragging a resistant world towards progress on our backs, making the impossible possible, and doing it all with flawless edges and a smile. (Spoiler: That’s wholly unsustainable and harmful to our emotional wellness and physical health.)

But guess what? After the heartbreak of the 2024 election, Black Women decided spontaneously and unanimously that this is our season to reclaim something that’s been overdue: Rest, Joy, and unapologetic Self-prioritization.

On Hey, It’s Halicue, we’re diving deep into what it means for Black Women to break free from hustle culture, embrace radical joy, and practice what I like to call “restful rebellion.” Every week, I’ll bring you thought-provoking conversations, laugh-out-loud moments, and actionable tips to live your most fulfilled life—without burning out for anyone else’s benefit.

Please consider this podcast and our new Substack home, your cozy corner of the internet, where we unpack what it means to thrive as Black women in a world that loves to keep us busy, serious, and stressed tf out!

So, grab your favorite cup of tea, your soft slipper socks, and prepare to enjoy video and podcast episodes packed with love, wit, and a little fire.

Follow me on Substack and YouTube, and be part of the conversation with other sisters who are choosing themselves for once.

Ready to rest, rise, and have some fun along the way? I thought so.

Love y’all,

HalicueHost + Creator, Hey, It’s Halicue—A Podcast and Community for The 92 Percent

P.S. Let’s make this our movement. Share this with the Black women in your life who need a reminder that they deserve more than survival—they deserve joy.
