Have you ever felt like you were navigating through the mud, only to find beauty and strength amidst the challenges? This week on Miss Mouthy, I'm sharing my journey as a creative, artist, and activist, highlighting the importance of self-care to bring my full self into my work. From my latest insights at the BTEC conference to the invaluable lessons drawn from the Monica Roberts Freedom School, this episode is a treasure trove of personal growth and community reflections. You’ll also hear about the touching interactions with Miss Dee Dee Waters and how her supportive space allowed me to regulate my emotions and embrace my unique qualities, much like a lotus flower emerging from the depths.
Ever wondered why community support holds such power in our healing journeys? Join me as I recount my transformative experience at a healing retreat in Orlando, organized by Black Trans Blessing. This retreat provided a spiritual space to honor our African ancestors and highlighted the need for accountability within our community. We'll explore the importance of addressing harm constructively and building platforms that validate our contributions. Plus, get ready for a self-reflective icebreaker activity designed to foster vulnerability and self-questioning, essential traits for personal development.
Imagine a world where empathy, kindness, and integrity reign supreme. In our final chapter, "Embracing Self-Love and Empowerment," we dive into the desire for a compassionate society where everyone can live without fear. Drawing parallels between the resilience of a lotus flower and our personal experiences, I share insights from therapy and emphasize the importance of overcoming life's challenges. Let’s celebrate small victories, show up for ourselves and others, and find joy in self-determination. This episode is a heartfelt invitation to embrace your unique journey and contribute to positive change—because together, we can create a kinder world.
