Y'all Alright Out There?

A Live Online Evening Workshop

Shima Baronian Eldest daughter & facilitator

Y'all Alright
Out There?

- an honest evening for “eldest” daughters

For the “eldest daughters” of the Caribbean and African diaspora. You know who you are. You have been the responsible one since you were about nine.

Ninety minutes where nobody needs a thing from you. No fixing, no phone blowing up, nobody calling your name. Just you and a room of women who already know, because they are the “eldest” too. Come as you are. Leave a little lighter than you walked in.

What you'll walk out with

  • The relief of hearing your own story in somebody else's mouth
  • A name for the “eldest”-daughter patterns you keep running
  • One simple thing to try before the phone rings again
  • A room of diaspora women who just get it, no explaining

If this is you

  • You answer the phone even when you know it's a whole situation
  • “No” comes out of your mouth about once a year
  • You already handled everybody's business before lunch
  • Rest feels like something you have to earn first

You do not have to be the firstborn

If you are the one who holds everybody, the one they call when it falls apart, the one who grew up before it was your turn, this room is for you. Eldest is a job, not a birth order.

Community

A monthly, low-key evening for the “eldest daughters” of the Caribbean and African diaspora - the ones who hold everybody up. This isn’t therapy. It’s a room to breathe, be understood, and leave a little lighter than you came.

New theme each month. Come once, come every time - nothing to catch up on, ever.
