Happy Holidays Y'All! More of us are seeking the services of Therapists and Coaches-because let's face it-we are STILL in a pandemic and need help now more than ever!  But All Coaches and Therapists are NOT created equal.

It is unfortunate-the abuses that others like myself had been forced to deal with as children. Then be expected to function as positive, contributing members of society. Most people in this position contribute to society by recycling their abuses & recreating the next generation of hurting children and adults.

Join me as I recount this portion of my story.

While I welcome everyone in on this conversation-my focus is on women of color and specifically Black Women because I am sharing my story from my point of view and as I have looked for my reflection in the stories of women with eating disorders-I have found VERY FEW are from Black Women.

In a world that heavily emphasizes control and self will...how do we practice surrender in our lives? How do we work out what is within our control and surrender to what is not?   Join Grace and I as we discuss the nuanced, game changing verb- Surrender.

Being vocal is critical to develop. Though building the courage can be intimidating, being vocal keeps us honest, accountable  and mostly resentment free.  Join Grace and I as we discuss being vocal and some of the caveats that come along.
