Turbulence doesn’t mean you’re failing—it means you’re in motion. 💜

Every negative word—failure, worthless, weak, ugly—may have tried to define you, but those labels were never your identity. They were moments, experiences, or voices that didn’t understand your worth.
Self-esteem isn’t about never feeling shaken. It’s about learning how to steady yourself when life gets rough.

✨ You are not what you’ve been called
✨ You are not what you’ve been through
✨ You are who you choose to become

My book Turbulence of Self-Esteem: A Young Ladies Journey was created to help girls and young women navigate those hard moments and rediscover their true value.

If you’ve ever questioned your worth, this is for you—or a young lady who needs to be reminded of hers.

What if a flare isn’t failure, but feedback? This recap of Worthy Beyond the Flare explores autoimmune disease, lived experience, and how community and tools like AIP shift how we respond to our bodies.

Positive Express and The AIP BIPOC Network would like to sincerely thank everyone who joined us yesterday for Worthy Beyond The Flare Workshop.

Your presence, your openness, and your willingness to show up—just as you are—made this space meaningful. These conversations matter, and it was an honor to hold space for healing, reflection, and truth together.

We pray/hope you left feeling seen, supported, and reminded that your worth is not defined by hard days, diagnoses, or what your body is going through.
This is just the beginning. Keep giving yourself grace. Keep choosing compassion. Keep remembering:
✨ You are worthy beyond the flare. ✨

With gratitude,
Tosha Dearbone & Jamie Nicole

Hygiene for Hope, hosted by Bee Busy Wellness Center, returns on Saturday, August 8th.

The AIP BIPOC Network, Positive Express, and the
Elusive Ladies and Gents are supporting donation collection for this year’s event.

This is more than a giveaway.

It’s a back-to-school backpack giveaway AND community health fair where families can access school supplies, hygiene kits, health screenings, and connections to care.

Each organization brings years of community outreach into this work.

➡️ The AIP BIPOC Network brings a focus on prevention, culturally relevant health education, and ongoing community connection.
➡️ Positive Express has led ongoing drives focused on hygiene and dignity for girls, including their long-running panties drive.
➡️ Elusive Ladies and Gents has supported families through school supply drives and community outreach, using culture and connection as a way to give back.

This is aligned work, not a one-time effort.
It’s about access, inclusion, and prevention, meeting people where they are before gaps turn into bigger health issues.

We’re currently collecting hygiene items and school supplies.

To donate or coordinate a drop-off, contact:
🟡 Jamie Nicole | [email protected]
🟡 Tosha Dearbone | [email protected]
🟡 Jackie Lilly | [email protected]

This is one way we show up for the community. Join us.

Today's lesson: Pause,Think, Choose ✨️

Every choice has a consequence, rather that be good or bad. Wise choices are made, not rushed.

James 1:5 NIV - "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you."

"And Nathanael said to him, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.” - John 1:46

Let's take a deeper look at the scripture. Imagine this asking about Positive Express. "Can anything good come out of Positive Express? Tosha said to her, "Come and see."

You won't be disappointed!
