We’ve been taught to hustle.To push through.To wear exhaustion like it’s a badge of honor. But here’s the truth no one’s telling you: you cannot heal if you’re always tired. I’ve seen it in the clinic, in the chemo chair, and in my own mirror—women running on fumes, calling it “strength” when it’s really survival mode. And while the world …
We’ve been sold a lie. We’ve been told that food is just “personal preference” — a matter of taste, tradition, or convenience. But the truth is, what’s on your plate has never been just about flavor. It’s about access. It’s about equity. It’s about survival. And for too many women — especially women of color — the very systems meant …
July is UV Safety Month.But let’s be honest—most of us don’t think about skin cancer unless we’re at the beach, slathering sunscreen before a family trip or a girls’ getaway. And even then, some of us still skip the SPF—especially women of color. But hear me clearly: This isn’t just about a tan. It’s about your life.And your glow? It …
Let’s be clear:Mental health is not a luxury.It is a right.A justice issue.And for far too long, Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) have been left on the margins of that conversation—if included at all. We show up to the doctor with real symptoms and get dismissed.We share our emotional pain and get labeled “strong” instead of supported.We seek …
It’s Men’s Health Month—and the science is evolving. They hold our hands through it all.They drive us to appointments.They pray beside hospital beds, and pace outside waiting rooms. They are our fathers, our partners, our brothers, our sons. And this June, we pause to ask:Who supports them? It’s Men’s Health Month, and while so much of my work centers around …
She used to remember everything. What we wore to kindergarten. The recipe without measuring. The gospel song that calmed our fears. Our entire childhood—etched in her mind like scripture. But now, she struggles to remember what day it is. She forgets names. She asks the same question five times in one hour. And sometimes, the woman who remembered everything… forgets …
Let me tell you something about the women who SERVE. They show up tired.They show up unseen.They show up anyway. They serve with calloused hands and softened hearts. They rise when the world sleeps. They answer calls no one else wants to. They are nurses. They are soldiers. They are both. And this month—we give them their flowers. May Is Personal May …
One year ago, I took a leap of faith.Still healing from my own diagnosis.Still walking through the fire of recovery.Still holding on to hope like it was breath. And with that hope, I launched something that scared me, stretched me, and stirred something deep in my soul—the 1MM Movement: One Million Mammograms. One Million Women Empowered. One Million Reasons to Fight. This …
In moments like these, the weight of time seems to slow down. As I sit here, reflecting on my sister’s journey, I can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of pride. My sister, at 47, is about to undergo heart surgery — a critical procedure, yes, but one that will mark another chapter in her remarkable story of strength and …
Ladies, I was deeply moved this week by a CNN report highlighting a staggering statistic: young women are nearly twice as likely to be diagnosed with cancer as young men. This news follows last week’s conversation on honoring our bodies through faith and healthy living. While we focused on strengthening ourselves physically and spiritually, it’s vital to remember that early …
