Blog postOn 9•3•16 Renee Jones and I birth The Healing Circle. At times you may have a dream, desire or passion to do something for years and at the appointed time it is birth. I reached out to Renee about something funny I saw online and in talking this vision came to pass. We both felt we were each other’s missing link to birthing this dream.
Our first session was 9•17•16 and it was empowering. The 7 individuals that were there all walked away with only great things to say about The He -

Blog postIt truly was an amazing summer mentoring the kids at the Overtown Youth Center. Some of them really used that time to spread their wings to fly just a bit. Some broke out of their shells, some became more confident and some accepted and embraced themselves for who they are and had no problems letting everyone know that’s who they are. It was a powerful summer. We enjoyed every minute of it.

Blog postThis week we covered bullying and cyberbullies with our groups. The stories that some of our kids shared about either them being a bully of being bullied by others were so heartbreaking.

For him to deal with the pain of being bullied he constantly would cut himself. His story was so powerful it brought me to tears. I commended him on having the courage to

Blog postAwesome ending to a great week working with the students from OYC. Touching the lives of children 5 and up is a blessing. Part of this week the kids got to practice presentation skills. After my failed experience of doing a presentation in college, we always incorporate those skills in our sessions. Students got the opportunity to stand in front of the class and talk about whatever they wanted to for a minute and 30 seconds. Their peers judged them on 3 things: posture, eye contact and voice

Blog postWe had a great time connecting and networking with the residents and organizations in the community of Overtown today. It’s amazing to share with people the programs we offer and to hear either they can’t wait for that program to be offered in their community or “I can’t wait for you to start that new program, I need it.” People are starting to realize, it’s ok to say we need the mental help. Weather it be through a support group, our workshops or just one on one conversations. We all need h

Blog postThis week we combined the boys and girls for an awesome conversation on body image. Each of them got to express what “they” thought the perfect body image is. We went into how media, TV, magazines, social media etc. affects our definition of the perfect image. Some of them even the adults opened up to talk about their current or past insecurities. We all at some point dealt with insecurities… looking back now some of us wished we embraced our younger selves just they way we were. Love yoursel
