In today’s episode, Marsha will be discussing how to bounce back from fear and anxiety.

Many people are concerned not just for the state of our nation, but the state of the world in which we are headed. Old habits and health issues can resurface if we don’t pay close attention and to see that the only place we should be operating from is a place of LOVE!

The uncertainty has driven people back to old habits that don't serve them and has become so consumed with mainstream media that they do not see how it is negatively impacting their mental health.

Marsha shares with you how you can bounce back from your fear and anxiety and anything else that may be a challenge for you may be facing right now and blocks you from operating at a higher vibration of love.

If we continue to remain stuck in a place of darkness we will never see the true grace that the creator has provided for us. Operating from a place of love is our strength and mental illness can be your superpower that propels you to greatness! There’s no shame in that! Marsha knows that we are all connected and have a purpose. Together as one we overcome anything and stop the enemy in his tracks.

Remember to choose love over fear or else the enemy wins.

In today’s episode, Marsha will be discussing having a dream. Marsha believes that many people are living life without really tapping into their gifts and hidden talents due to fear. Dream that we once held as a child we buried somewhere along the way in this thing we call life.

We settle for a life of existence without really tapping into our hidden desires and Marsha knows that a part of self-care is living life fully and embracing all of who we are including those talents and desires.

Having a dream is more than having a vision board to simply look at and wishing for it to become a reality. Setting your intentions is key along with the action behind it. Marsha also knows that everyone won’t understand your dream or vision because it is not their reality and not their vision, so don’t take it personally when your dream is not supported by family or friends.

Marsha gives examples of how you can start to live your dreams today and remind you that you are capable and able to achieve anything you want at any age if you are willing and choose to. Anything is possible if you believe and if you are committed and willing to fail forward to success!

Today’s Guest Wellness (Breathwork) Practitioner Tameeka Ford will share with you her insights self-care. As a former leader for a nonprofit organization, Tameeka dealt with the pressures of running an organization for impoverished communities for youth and families. The demands of her work impacted her health greatly that she decided to take a leap of faith and leave her job.

The decision to leave her six-figure paying job after 17 years was life-changing for her, and she found a way to still serve her community. Now her focus is on helping older women of color to practice the importance of self-care through breathwork meditation and relaxation, along with reiki, yoga, color light therapy, and qigong.

Tameeka holds a vision to help other women to heal and to connect to themselves by putting themselves first by implementing self-care practices for better health.

She wants to change that by bringing more awareness to the community she serves.

Although COVID 19 has affected her business where she can not have live classes, she was able to make a shift and found a way to still serve by creating virtual sessions where she can still work with her clients and provide her services to those who need it.

Hello Lovely! Today’s episode will be on discussing how you can develop confidence by embracing yourself.

As women we sometimes struggle with confidence and we can be our worst critic. We judge ourselves harshly and many of that comes from our childhood experiences and what we were told as kids growing up. Words can sometimes have a lasting effect on how we perceive ourselves. Nakiyah struggled with confidence growing up by believing the stories she was told like many of us have; you’re not good enough or worthy enough.

Nakiyah soon came to realize that the lies she told herself and what others told her growing up were just that, lies! Lack of self-love will impact your belief about yourself as well as your self-esteem, which leads to lack of confidence. It was only when Nakiyah decided to finally say YES to herself and learned to tell others no that she was able to build that confidence in herself.

Now as a coach she has committed to empowering other women to build their confidence just as she has on her journey to help them live the life they desire and deserve.

Nakiyah understands the importance of self-care and knows that self-care is loving yourself wholeheartedly and you can embrace yourself confidently with no shame, guilt or judgement. It is when we judge ourselves harshly that we build blocks that hinder our true potential.

Hello Beautiful! Today, I have the pleasure of interviewing not only an Herbalist but a Doula for women’s health.

Shamika learned from a young age the benefits of herbs from her grandmother. It was from that point on that she has made herbs a part of her everyday life. With Big Pharma pushing pills to treat symptoms and not the root cause of disease; how can anyone experience true healing from what has already been provided for us in nature?

Our ancestors understood the laws of the land and the benefits of natural herbs and we somehow have forgotten about this truth. Now, it seems the only validation of truth for healing should come from those who went to Medical schools and who may also sit on the board of Pharmaceutical companies. We must not leave it to health professionals and Big Pharma to provide us with better solutions for good health. We must empower ourselves and one another to educate ourselves more on natural health and healing through herbs.

This is what herbalist Shamika, myself and other natural health practitioners our doing for their communities. Empowering individuals to take back their health through knowledge, learning from our elders and doing our own due diligence.

There’s a saying that goes; “It takes a village to raise a child”, but it also takes a woman to build and strengthen her community. It is through this process that we as women learn and grow together and to teach our youth about the importance of obtaining knowledge and implementing a process for change. We can get back to learning what was previously taught from those who came before us if we listen. The body can heal naturally through herbs, exercise, lifestyle change and eating the right food.
