Empowering Real Talk

Community building comes from creating foundations, building relationships and understanding that there will be different methods to get there.

One thing I believe we lack in understanding is that there will ALWAYS be more than one way to do it. Unfortunately there are some who believe that there is only ONE way, and honestly they TRULY don't even know what that may be. I get into this deep discussion and MORE with Lakeisha C Muhammad, aka Lady, who is an Author & Empowerment Speaker of Personal Sacred Embodied Empowerment & Coach of My Sacred Path LLC. Whewwww!!!! Are you ready to listen, or stay stagnant and let our communities die?
