Pajamas and Purpose

A FREE 2.5-hour wellness night in for Black women entering residency — grounded, supported, and emotionally prepared for what comes next. 


One day you are a high-achieving student. The next, you are a physician — with real responsibility, real stakes, and real people depending on your decisions. The world may celebrate this moment as pure achievement. But your nervous system may experience it as shock, pressure, and disorientation.


This space was created for that truth. Not the polished version of you entering residency. But the full, human version — the one quietly holding questions that don't get airtime in medical education.


 Pajamas & Purpose is a gentle, evidence-informed wellness circle designed specifically for Black women entering residency. This is not a lecture. This is not performance. This is not about pushing through.

 This is not just education. It is integration. Most wellness offerings tell you what to do. This experience gives you the space to actually feel, process, and prepare — together.
