🌿 March Into a New Mindset 🌿

March reminds us that growth doesn’t happen overnight, it happens in seasons.
Through the years, I’ve learned that healing looks different for everyone. Sometimes it’s loud breakthroughs. Sometimes it’s quiet endurance. Sometimes it’s just getting out of bed and choosing to try again.

This month, I encourage you to:
🌱 Give yourself permission to grow at your own pace
🌱 Release what no longer serves your peace
🌱 Protect your mental and emotional boundaries
🌱 Trust that even small steps are still progress

In my work with children, families, and individuals, college students/student-athletes, I see resilience every single day. I see people who are tired but still trying. Hurt but still hopeful. Healing while still showing up.

That’s strength‼️

March forward with intention. March forward with grace. March forward knowing you are worthy of wholeness.

Let this be the month you choose mindset over fear, healing over hiding, and purpose over pressure.

Black mental wellness deserves visibility — not just for a day, but every day.

This Black History Month, we’ve recognized diverse voices and experiences while underscoring that mental health equity is essential to overall health, safety, and opportunity.

Today, on , we continue to elevate conversations about stigma, center culturally responsive care, and reaffirm the importance of community-based solutions.

Black mental wellness is shaped by strength, resilience, advocacy, and collective care. It also requires access, investment, and systems change.

As Black History Month comes to a close, our commitment continues.

Learn more and join the movement at nami.org/chea, and explore the Crisis Can’t Wait campaign at nami.org/crisiscantwait.

✨10th Youth Mental Health Summit Recap✨

On January 24th, we proudly hosted our Youth Mental Health Summit: New Year Mental Health Pulse Check and this one felt different… yet incredibly rewarding. The youth were thoroughly engaged throughout the entire day as we poured into them. 🙌🏾

We had many new youth participants join us, along with new professional team members. We were honored to welcome Aiesha Broussard, RSW, and Ana Leger to our Professional Team (be sure to check out their amazing bios!).

We also welcomed back our incredible YMHS Team Clinicians:
💚 Erica Joshua, LMSW
💚 Reginald Lemelle, LPC-S

Reginald also served as our phenomenal guest speaker, pouring into our youth about grief and loss — and how to navigate life’s challenges with support, meaningful resources, and healthy tools.

And this time, I even had the opportunity to facilitate a group myself which was such a fulfilling experience 💚.

We also proudly awarded our 2nd Youth Mental Health Summit Ambassador! Congratulations to DaMari Eleam for joining the YMHS Team as an Ambassador. We are so proud of you and excited for your leadership!

We are already looking ahead to our Back to School Experience 📚in July stay tuned! We can’t wait to see our youth there.

I am forever grateful for my amazing YMHS team members (my family 🫶🏾) and our sponsors. It is because of each of YOU that I am able to continue this vision and mission.

✨ Key Sponsors:
• PARC Village
• Greedy’s 2 Go
• Amour My Creations, LLC
• Beau Tie Speciality Services
Thank you for believing in our youth.
