Jeanine Valrie Logan has made history as the visionary behind Illinois’ first Black-owned birthing center — a milestone born out of faith, ancestral healing traditions, and a deep commitment to community care. Inspired by Hoodoo, the African American spiritual practice rooted in resilience and holistic healing, Jeanine reimagined what birth could look like for families on Chicago’s South Side. Her journey began as a midwife determined to confront the stark disparities in maternal health that disproportionately affect Black women. Guided by both medical training and cultural wisdom, she set out to create a space where expectant parents could feel safe, supported, and seen. That dream became the Chicago South Side Birth Center — a welcoming, midwife-led facility offering cozy birthing suites, lactation support, wellness programming, and wraparound care tailored to the community it serves. Jeanine’s vision has already extended beyond the center’s walls. In 2021, she co-authored legislation expanding access to birth centers across Illinois, ensuring that more families — especially in underserved neighborhoods — can experience birth in dignity and safety. Her work is more than health care; it’s a movement to reclaim birth, honor tradition, and empower future generations. By weaving ancestral wisdom into modern maternal care, Jeanine is transforming lives and proving that healing begins when community and culture lead the way.

The person who broke you can never heal you.

They broke you.
And you kept going back …
hoping that if you tried harder,
loved louder,
cried deeper,
they would finally give you the love you so freely gave them.

But here’s the truth:

The person who shattered you is not equipped to restore you.
They don’t have the emotional tools.
They don’t have the spiritual maturity.
They don’t have the capacity to love you at the level your soul requires.

And still, you returned …
not because you were weak,
but because you were human.
Because your heart believed the history you shared
could somehow become the future you deserved.

But hear this clearly:

Your healing will never come from the hands that hurt you.
You don’t need their apology to rise.
You don’t need their closure to move forward.
You don’t need their understanding to finally choose yourself.

At some point, you have to accept:
they broke you because that’s all they were capable of doing.
And you will heal because you are finally choosing to reclaim your power.

Your healing is yours.
Your peace is yours.
Your future is calling your name … not theirs.

Walk away.
Not in anger…
but in strength.

Because the moment you release what wounded you,
you make space for what will love you the way you were meant to be loved.
