I thank my parents for being my being my rock and for doing the impossible.

I thank my father for calling our local radio stations in New York and demanding the communities support.

I thank my mother who sat by me and held my hand.

I thank my grandmother for consistently reminding me of my beauty.

I thank my big sister for the countless hours she invested in created hair do's for me, first in thought, then by hand to cover my scars.

I thank my stepfather for forcing me back into the kitchen.

I thank my first women's group for supporting me through the process of facing my fears around wearing my natural hair?

I thank my best friend for always being my champion when I couldn't be?

I thank my younger siblings and children for the compassion and patience they've exhibited on this journey of me learning how to SHINE as my authentic self.

I thank you for reading this and for supporting Pound For Love's commitment to serving men and women impacting by emotional and physical trauma.

I thank my favorite person in the world for reminding me of my Divinity and Royalness

What do you say when your daughter in the matter of minutes becomes physically unrecognizable to you?

How do you be when the person you love the most in the world face, ears, and hands third degree burned and the doctors are telling you there's a good possibility she may have to have ear replacements or skin grafts? How do you respond as a parent when your child's eyes are covered in so much soot from the fire, you can see the impact, but she cannot?

Who do you call,

When you're facing one of the most difficult trials in life and don't have a resource readily available in your phone book!!!!!?

Where do you go for support when you're committed to your child getting the best hospital care money can provide, yet the hospital bills are racking up beyond your ability to pay?

****************************************************************
Imagining what my parents went through nursing me back to health after my dance with fire brings chills up my spine. For a long time, I didn't acknowledge how difficult it must've been for them, especially during the first few months of healing.

I know trauma. If you're on this page it's a good chance you do too. I invite you to acknowledge and thank the people who have and are supporting you back to health.

When something traumatic transpires in your life how do you successfully share the impact of what you're experiencing emotionally a) your family, b) your closest friends, c) people you're surrounded by in your everyday life, without feeling disempowered and or being viewed as a person with a victim mentality?

Truthfully, the answer is complex.

What I can offer you is hope.

NO matter what your life path has been there's a set of empowering actions that can facilitate your healing.

Here's three that made a tremendous difference for me.

1. Locate a community where you feel safe and can share your emotional pains without making you feel small

The conscious mind is wired to store memories. You cannot affirm or rationalize your memories away. Venting is the process by which your conscious mind purges the past.

2. Set yourself up to WIN!

Depending on what your journey it could require for you to participate in multiple healing methods simultaneously to experience a significant breakthrough

3. Create Community

Transformation doesn't happen in a bubble. A positive community will reveal blind spots your right now self is unable to identify. Many people fight against this out of fear of being judged. If you can set your fears to the side community will be your access to achieving full-spectrum healing.

Some of the fondest memories of my childhood are the conversations my grandmother and I used to have over the phone. My grandmother is my ace. I never had to explain my behavior or actions. No matter what mistakes I made she knew the nature of my spirit - through and through. My g-mom is my in the clutch person. The woman I call on when all Ish hits the fan. And not just b/c of her hierarchy. She's truly the wisest human I know.

In this modern time, we have access to knowledge on a much grander scale than when I was growing up, but for me, picking up the phone and dialing my grand or anyone I love for that matter will always be a special act.

We may not know each other personally yet and I am inviting you to a life-altering event. I am requesting for you to pick up your phone, dial in, and allow me to pour some love into your life.

It's time for you to be and feel liberated from your circumstances and from your past. I am here to support you in doing just that.

According to The National Sexual Violence Resource Center, one in five women and one and seventy-one men will be r***d during their lifetime.
These numbers are very disturbing to me and as a woman whose mother and brother are a r**e survivor I know intimately, they're not just numbers.

For many of these men and women, the biggest emotional sting is not the act itself. It's the breaking of homes, the silent whispers, feeling dirty and unworthy that creates the emotional upset.

Here at Pound For Love, we're committed to making a positive impact on the lives of men and women in our community.

Call us bias!, but we whole heartily believe there's no better way to heal than through the art of food.

Pound For Love is not just a catchy title. Each pound cake made is done so with LOVE and a strong commitment to HEAL!
