Parents YOU ARE DOING AMAZING. Parenting does not come with a Manuel so if you're an active parent, I want to give you your flowers.

It is imperative to note that our children are vulnerable and how they are treated as children plays a huge impact on how they function as adults

Here are some positive parenting tips to assist in nurturing your child and increasing intimacy.

Hello Sailors, Welcome to a month-long series I'm calling "A Day in Anxiety" where I share my perspective as a Mental Health Professional. Today we will discuss not letting anxiety cause you to miss the moment! Luke 10:40-42 says "But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!” “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her."   If you like this content make sure you like, comment and share.  Also, click the link in the bio to subscribe to my podcast for more information like this.  And if you are in the Virginia area you don’t want to miss my conference this July!

THIS EPISODE MAY BE A TRIGGER WARNING!

In this episode I collaborate with Sharlicia Boone (Resident in Counseling). Sharlicia shares her experiences of sexual trauma and her healing process to mitigate the impact of her traumatic experiences. According to the CDC about 1 in 4 male victims have experienced sexual abuse before the age of ten, and 1 in 8 females have experienced sexual assault before the age of ten (CDC.gov)! Sexual trauma, abuse, and assault happens at rapid rates and it can be a continuous vicious cycle! In this episode we also discussed seeing sex in a healthy manner post sexual assault or abuse, and how we as a community can help survivors of sexual abuse in comparison to BLAMING them. Below you will find resources from the podcast that Sharlicia provided . Happy healing and sailing! SAIL ON SAILORS.

 SAILORS, SAILORS, SAILORS!!!

I have something for you all!!! So I collaborated with Elle Harris to discuss the importance of WALKING IN YOUR DOPENESS! It’s sad but many of us do not know or understand our calling, our purpose, our full potential so we are either 1.) insecure when others go big… 2.) or shrink in an effort to minimize what God has blessed us with! Elle simply shares the importance of refraining from shrinking… being your sister's keeper, confidence, and self-worth! This episode was such a pleasure! 

Happy healing and sailing
