The insane amount of stress African American women face isn’t just an under-the-breath complaint about being "tired"—it’s a full-on, in-your-face reality with serious consequences. It’s messing with our relationships, stifling our work, fueling constant worry, and driving us to anxious habits. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. This isn’t a temporary personal struggle or work challenge—it’s a full-blown health crisis.

Now, here’s a fact that should stop you cold in your tracks: African American women are dying younger and more often than other women across the country. Yes, it’s that serious!

It's so ridiculous that it’s almost laughable. But not the funny "haha" —more like the "this is beyond sad". We see this as a rallying cry. It’s time to make a real shift in how we approach the social health & wellness of African American women.

Here at Docked Ships, we’re not just talking about it—we’re doing something about it.

We’re driving the conversation forward through education, therapy and coaching, and organizational consulting.

We're not just a company—we're part of a movement.
