The journey towards emotional healing is a very personal one for me.  Many years ago, I lost a dear loved one and it was the beginning of an emotional process I have never embarked upon in my life.  Navigating the loss, the grief and the transition was lonesome and scary.   My loved one was very dear to me and they taught me how to love but I didn't come to really appreciate the many lessons until they departed this life. As a leader and professional it was difficult to navigate the devastation of such loss.  In addition, as a woman of color, there were many unspoken expectations to heal quickly.  These experiences and unhelpful expectations created a passion within me to hold space for individuals like myself who are often overlooked and forgotten.

​

The only thing constant is change but often change is HARD to embrace and in the midst of it all, I learned to create my own oasis by tapping into my personal resilience, strength, and hope.   Ultimately, I believe the same for YOU.
