I know this path because I’ve walked it. For years, I carried the invisible weight of trauma, exhaustion, and silence — in my body, in my spirit, and in my daily life. I know what it feels like to be strong for everyone else while your own soul aches for release. I know what it means to inherit burdens you never chose and to wonder if joy is even possible.

But I also know what it means to heal.

I am a Certified Peer & Recovery Support Specialist, a trainer, and an empowerment coach with more than 14 years of experience guiding individuals and communities through recovery, self-care, and racial healing. I am the author of The Weight Was Never Yours and the creator of courses and group coaching rooted in Black resilience, Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome (Dr. Joy DeGruy), and liberation psychology.

What sets me apart is not just my training, but my lived experience as a Black woman who has faced addiction, homelessness, and systemic barriers — and has reclaimed wholeness through community, culture, and radical self-care. I don’t speak from theory alone; I speak from scars turned into lessons, from survival turned into strategy, from pain transformed into power.

My work is unapologetically culturally-rooted, community-centered, and liberation-focused. I create spaces where the Black community can:

Release generational trauma carried in our bodies and spirits

Reclaim joy, rest, and boundaries as sacred birthrights

Rise into wholeness, freedom, and unapologetic self-love

This isn’t just coaching. It’s not just teaching. It’s a movement of healing and reclamation — and I am honored to walk beside you as we release what was never ours and rise into what always was.
