This episode is real and raw! 

Lou gets real about her discovery and journey to spirituality. 

We gon’ hear how the practice of Yoga & Stretching helps to ground her and open her up to experiencing life more fully. 

{By the by... the correct name of the group for the wonderful music Lou references, was “Beautiful Chorus” NOT Black Chorus.}

Then the deep and raw exploration of letting go of guilt and shame; of ideas that no longer serve nor resonate with her being, rounds out to how Lou deschooled her own understanding of and relationship with religion & cultivating relationship with the Creator - God power.

In the search of truth and building courage to speak her truth as a black woman raising black boys, Lou started trusting the process by using her intuition to help her navigate this new terrain.

Lou drew strength and felt empowered by the strong parental love she received in  her childhood that gave her a sense of self-awareness and purpose.

Naturally, with the current climate around the world, Lou is continuing to use tools of awareness, conscious eating, yoga/stretching and other practices to heal herself and understand the connection to how she lives and how she wants to feel.

Question everything - that’s the real learning, the real connection, the real journey.
