The Silk Blouse Was Supposed to Be a Thank-You | A Moment for the Soul
Samí Haiman-Marrero was two weeks into her first media job when her employer gave her a beautiful silk blouse to thank her for her hard work. That evening, she wore her own business suit to dinner. Then he told her to go upstairs and change.
In this A Moment for the Soul excerpt, Samí shares what went through her mind in that hotel room—and the decision she made about protecting her dignity.
Hear the full conversation with Rev. Cynthia Alice Anderson in Experience of the Soul 438, where Samí talks about speaking up, setting boundaries, and knowing when to walk away.
