Even after everything we’ve endured, healing is still possible. πŸ’œ

We don’t have to carry it in silence.
We can heal out loud, reclaim our wholeness, and still find beauty in the midst of chaos.

This life is short. Choose healing. Every time.

San Diego Writers Festival, you showed up πŸ’œ

I’m down to my last 6 copies of The Cost of Healing in Silence.

Grateful for every conversation, every story shared, every person choosing healing out loud. This isn’t just a book, it’s a movement.

If you’re here, come find me before they’re gone. If you’re not, you can still tap in and grab your copy wherever books are sold. πŸ”— in bio!

The cost of carrying it alone is too high. πŸ’œ

March 31 🌸
There comes a moment when silence no longer feels safe.
A story I’ve carried for years is finally making its way into the world.

πŸ“šThe Cost of Healing in Silence is about naming what we’ve endured and choosing to heal out loud.

Coming soon πŸ’œ

We don’t talk enough about what it means when the people we’re taught to admire also caused harm.
The truth is, silence has protected legacies for generations.
But it has cost survivors everything.
This is the work.
Holding both. Telling the truth. Healing out loud. πŸ’œ

What does it mean to tend to a wound that was never allowed to heal?”

Yesterday during my virtual prelaunch I read from my chapter β€œTending to the wound”

This is what healing out loud looks like…naming the loss, reclaiming the joy, and choosing to be the difference.

I’ll leave you there πŸ’œ Comment book below πŸ‘‡πŸΎ and get your copy.

β€œThis isn’t the BET Awards.”

That’s what some people said after Teyana Taylor jumped up in excitement at the Oscars.

That reaction is rooted in respectability politics, the idea that Black people must shrink our joy, reactions, and authenticity to be accepted.

Constantly monitoring ourselves like that takes a real toll on our mental health.

Black joy doesn’t need permission. πŸ’œ

I talk more about this in The Cost of Healing in Silence.
