CALLING BLACK WOMEN IN EALING: Your Story. Your Voice. Your Truth.

Published on: 9 July 2025

My name is Anne-Marie Waugh — CEO, mentor, community leader, and a Black woman who has navigated the harsh realities of leading within systems that were never designed with us in mind.
Through my peer-led research project Exit Wounds: Black Women, Organisational Harm, and the Health Impact of Leading in Inequitable Systems (funded by Ealing’s Roots & Wings programme), I am creating a space to centre our lived experience — the cost of survival, the weight of leadership, and the silent toll it takes on our wellbeing.
If you are a Black woman, living, working or leading in Ealing, past or present, I want to hear from you.
Have you:
Led through harm?
Survived a toxic culture?
Felt your health decline due to your work environment?
Then you are not alone, and your story is vital.
🗣️ What I’m Looking For:
Testimonies — named or anonymous — from Black women who’ve worked or live in Ealing.
Stories about emotional, mental, or physical health impacts.
Examples of harm, resilience, recovery, or how you found support.
🔐 Your Privacy Matters:
You can share as much or as little as you feel comfortable. All stories will be treated with dignity, confidentiality, and care. No identifying details will ever be published without your clear consent.
📩 How to Share:
Please email me directly at: anne-marie@rolladome.onmicrosoft.com
This is more than research — it’s a call for justice, healing, and systemic change. When we speak our truth, we not only reclaim our power — we build a path forward for others.
Let’s honour our experience.
Let’s disrupt the silence.
Let’s heal together.
