Healthy Illness

I'm Back: Finding Strength, Support & A New Purpose


Listen Later

Ep. 117 After six months away from the mic, I’m finally back. In this episode of Healthy Illness, I’m opening up about where I’ve been, what’s changed, and how my journey has led me to become a birth doula. I also reflect on the power of community, and how my support system—including JazzCast Pros and my closest friends—helped me navigate these challenging times.


The weight of the election, the reality that America still isn’t ready for a woman President, and the painful cuts to programs that support Black and Brown communities hit me hard. I needed time to process, to heal, and to figure out my next steps.


If you’re feeling the weight of the world, you’re not alone. Let’s talk about healing, resilience, and the importance of leaning on those who uplift us. 💛
