Exploring Global Majority Life: Soft Living as Liberation, with Rosemary Campbell-Stephens | S2, E14

Soft living is about more than luxury and comfort. For Black women especially, soft living can be a way of reclaiming joy, rest, self-love, while also resisting the pressure of the systems that were never designed for them to thrive.

In this episode of Space To Exhale: The Podcast, Lisa welcomes veteran educator, author, speaker, and anti-racist activist Rosemary Campbell-Stevens, MBE, for a conversation about what it means to move beyond simply using “Global Majority” as a term, and start embracing “Global Majority” as a lifestyle. Because honestly, a lot of what we call soft living nowadays is rooted in practices and rituals created by the communities now known as the Global Majority.

As the person who brought the term Global Majority to prominence, Rosemary is uniquely qualified to participate in this discussion. Together, Lisa and Rosemary explore Black identity, decolonization, soft living, and the everyday practices that can help Black women get centered and heal themselves.
