Balancing a career and family life isn&rsquo;t always easy, but it is possible. Today, I&rsquo;m joined by actor, producer, author, and podcast creator Tika Sumpter. A true multi-hyphenate, her career continues to thrive. Since becoming a mother, she&rsquo;s embraced her creativity even more, defying the societal expectation that women should scale back their ambitions after motherhood. Through her company Fort Sumpter, she has thrust herself into amplifying the experiences of mothers and children. And after releasing children&rsquo;s media like her debut book &lsquo;I Got It From My Mama&rsquo; and podcast &lsquo;The Adventures of Curiosity Cove,&rsquo; Tika is rewriting the narrative on what it means to realize your dreams while raising a family. About the Podcast The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves.
