Today’s walk in the woods proved to be more personal than usual.

Along the way, I was reminded of Psalm 23… in particular how He leads me beside still waters, how His rod and staff comfort me, and how He restores my soul.

For that reason, I have joy.

Okay, y’all. Be easy! And get you some of this fresh air! ✌🏾❤️🙌🏾

I remember very vividly the day I drove myself to the emergency room. I couldn’t breathe, nor could I catch the few breaths I had. My heart was racing uncontrollably.

As I drove, I rolled down the windows of my car, not knowing anything about the healing properties of nature. It helped.

I called my sister. That helped too.

Upon arrival, I wondered what was happening. I’d self diagnosed myself into thinking I was experiencing some type of cardiac emergency. After all, it does run in my family.

As a matter of fact, my father was still recovering from a stroke, and I was entrenched in his care.

I get checked in. Tests are run. My heart just won’t stop or slow down.

The doctor comes to me and says “everything looks good.” My response, “are you saying this is all in my head?”

He then asks whether I’ve experienced anything traumatic lately. I promptly respond with a somewhat sarcastic, “how much time do you have?”

He smiles and says you’re okay. You had a panic attack.

I will never forget that moment, as it will always serve as a reminder to rest.

The work is the work. The care for others is just that.

When are you going to care enough about yourself to put yourself first?

Join us for the Rest & Refuel Retreat in April! Let us care for you. Why? Because it’s long overdue.

Dear God,

Thank you for loving me, keeping me, and leading me. You and I both know how challenging 2025 was.

I’m certain there will be more challenges in the days and months ahead. There always are.

I’m just glad I can count on you no matter what. I don’t know what I’d do without you, God.

I could say so much more. For now, I think I’ll just say thank you for always loving me.

Sincerely,
Your Daughter, Shawanna

A lovely day it was, indeed, with these amazing women from as far south as Augusta, GA and as far north as Nashville, TN.

We’ll post more, say more, and do more later. For now, we simply want to say thank you to them and to for allowing us to do what we do best - create safe, trusted spaces for black women to disconnect and reconnect outdoors.

Okay, y’all. Be easy! We out! ✌🏾
