1. How are you working to de-stigmatizing mental health within your community?

​

Through Redefining Our Womanhood, my hope is for Black womxn and other underserved groups of people to find the space as a safe community where they can share their experience and resources with each other. I think de-stigmatizing mental health amongst the Black community is dismantling the shame aspect of it. The shame is eradicated through vulnerability, and sharing with one another.

​

2. What fuels your passion to share beauty with the world? 

​

Art is one of my greatest loves. I’m observant and reserved, and art has always been a way to be in tune with myself and communicate from a very young age. Curation, producing; even creating experiential events has been a way for me to express myself and evoke emotions out of people in way I would not be able to otherwise. 

​

3. What is one mechanism you use to fight imposter syndrome?

​

I honestly don’t experience imposter syndrome. I think that’s because I don’t chase perfection or feel the need to have everything figured out. I focus on remaining open to learning and to receiving what is meant for me.

​

4. What are your self-care rituals?

​

My favorite self-care rituals involve rest and play. I find time for relaxation, stillness, laughter and communion into my life daily.

​

5. What do you want your legacy to be?

​

I want to be remembered for how well I loved, and how no gift of mine was left hidden. From just looking at my life and my work, I want others to know they can do anything too.
