Be Well, Sis is a wellness podcast for women who know self-care goes deeper than face masks and bubble baths.
Hosted by Dr. Cassandre Dunbar, a medical doctor and professor, this show explores what it actually takes to be well physically, mentally, emotionally, and culturally. Through science-backed solo episodes and thoughtful conversations with experts, practitioners, changemakers, and people with lived experience, Be Well, Sis explores stress, hormones, aging, rest, pleasure, joy, and the everyday rituals that support healing, presence, and a fuller life.
This podcast is for women navigating transitions and quiet awakenings, as well as for those asking big questions about what wellness truly means. It is a space to get curious, feel less alone, and rethink what being well looks like now.
