Coaching and entrepreneurship are more than careers—they’re lifestyles that demand resilience, focus, and consistency. But here’s the truth: if your health isn’t in check, your business will suffer. Your body and mind are the engines that drive your brand, your income, and your impact. That’s why prioritizing health isn’t just a personal choice—it’s a professional strategy. Let’s break it down with the data to back it up.

But here’s the thing: he presented zero new evidence, and health experts were quick to remind the public that no conclusive scientific study has found Tylenol causes autism.

Let’s be honest—life is a lot. Every single day we’re juggling a million little things: answering texts, clocking into work, making sure bills get paid, showing up for family, trying to stay healthy, and maybe, just maybe, carving out a little time for ourselves. By the end of the day, most of us are running on fumes and wondering why we feel so drained. But here’s the tea: it’s not always about working harder or grinding longer. Sometimes it’s the small shifts—the little tw

What if you’re not sick… your body is just starving for the right nutrients? That’s the message behind the popular wellness chart making waves online: “You’re Not Sick, Your Body Is Starving.” It breaks down common health struggles — from acne to anxiety, arthritis to Alzheimer’s — and connects them to nutrient gap

But here’s the plot twist: scientists say you actually have a second heart—and it’s hiding in your legs. Yep, deep inside your calf lies the soleus muscle, a small but mighty powerhouse that plays a life-or-death role in keeping your blood moving. Ignore it, and you could be setting yourself up for circulation problems, heart strain, and even a

Let’s Talk About Oil… We put it in our frying pans, drizzle it over salads, and sneak it into baked goods. But here’s the thing, bestie—while oils can make food taste amazing, they can also be part of why your skin keeps breaking out, your digestion feels sluggish, and your energy is all over the place.

Let’s have a real moment, sis. Mental health has finally entered the mainstream, but for too long, our voices were left out of the conversation. The therapy rooms weren’t always built for us. The resources weren’t written in our language. And the so-called “self-help” movement rarely saw us — Black, bold, brilliant — as the audience it needed to serve. But that’s changing.

Now, it’s time to talk about something they almost never bring up in doctor’s offices or pamphlets: The connection between trauma and fibromyalgia.

It’s a life disruption. It messes with your money, your mental health, your sense of self, and sometimes your belief in the entire healthcare sys

Let’s be real—fibromyalgia is one of those silent battles a lot of people fight, but barely anybody talks about. The pain, the fatigue, the brain fog, the judgment from others who say, “But you don’t look sick.” Sis, let’s talk about it—loudly, clearly, and with facts. Whether you’ve been diagnosed, you’re still trying to figure out what’s going on with your body, or you're watching someone you love go through it—this post is for you.

When you’re diagnosed with lupus, it feels like your body betrays you. One day you’re pushing through a little fatigue. The next, you’re staring down inflammation, brain fog, hair loss, aching joints, and a flurry of doctors unsure which symptom to chase first. That’s the reality for millions—and in 2025, while lupus is still deeply misunderstood by the public, something incredible is happening in both the medical world and holistic wellness. There’s new hope. This isn’t ju
