Many of us understand that black self hate and colorism is a huge issue in our community, but many do not understand it’s complexity and how it manifests inside our relationships. In today’s session, I answer a question from a biracial sista who wants to heal with black women, is doing the work, but finds […]
x3 Book Club Blessings.
This weekend (8th December) will be the 3rd Sacred Sista Circle Book Club where we study, ‘Sista’s of The Yam: Black Women and Self Recovery.’ By Bell Hooks.

Happy 50th Birthday To Me!
Today is my 50th Birthday and I am so grateful to be alive, thriving and sober! I’ve already been in the ugly cry several times today from all the wonderful messages from friends and my Sacred Sista Mentees. I used to hate birthdays in the past because it would trigger shame about being seen, anxiety […]
You Are Not Powerless!
With a history and culture of unheard pain, it makes sense that many of us feel a deep sense of powerlessness.

The result of unheard powerlessness and oppression is learned […]

Grounding Techniques When There is Sexual Assault in The News.
Over the last few days, the news has been saturated with ‘high profile’ men and sexual assault.

I’m not interested in debating whether they’re […]

Addiction is a Family Disease
I’ve been a little quiet over the last few days, because it was my late brothers birthday on the 7th of September. After many years of substance abuse, he died aged 46. Many of us don’t understand addiction, and are quick to judge those who act out with drink, drugs, food, sex or any other behaviours […]
