Favorite Quote(s): 1. Don’t judge me until you know me. Don’t underestimate me until you challenge me. And don’t talk about me until you talk to me. 2. I'm Rooting for Everybody Black 3. Self-care and self-nurturing is not selfish, its our birthright.

Fun Fact: My guilty pleasure-Discovery's Naked & Afraid

I Define Wellness As: Ease, flow and alignment

A Pivotal Moment In Your Life: The passing of my Father, whom I'm named after

Why Retreats?: To build community and connection with other black women who take care of everyone else before taking care of themselves. One of my goals is to dispel the myth of the "angry black woman." I truly don't believe we are angry, we are tired and exhausted living in a system that was never created for us. That's a lot to manage.

What I Love Most About Hosting Retreats: My first retreat with OMNoire is scheduled for June, 2024. I'm looking forward to the energy and stories of the participants. We are such a diverse people and there is so much we can learn and share with each other.
