Everyone thinks you have it all together but in reality, you’re exhausted. The fear of judgment forces you to suppress your feelings. So you keep a smile on your face to continue showing up for others even when you don’t want to, because you don’t want to let them down. You’ve found yourself feeling tired, isolated and frustrated because no one understands and shows up for you when you need it most, but you still manage to push through each day. The time for a change has been long overdue, but figuring out where to start is a challenge all in itself.
Being able to say what's really on your mind in a non-judgmental place is important for your mental and emotional peace. I help professional black women set healthy boundaries, undo toxic patterns and navigate relationships in a fulfilling way. Together we’ll overcome your challenges and help you discover what true happiness feels like.
Making yourself a priority can feel selfish or intimidating at first but I’m here to support you through your journey to growth, peace and long term fulfillment. Email me today for a FREE 30-minute consultation so I can learn more about and answer any questions you have. I look forward to talking with you!
