black women educators

I hope everyone is doing well, staying safe, and experiencing moments of wellness, support, collective love, and purpose. 

This week I introduce Ambitious Black Girl Book Club and our October book select, Ain’t I A Woman By bell hooks. I’ll recap my first month as Educator in the classroom abroad, and what my experience has been like as I journey with the support of therapy and wellness. I shed light on the Well + Good article, The Importance of Black Spaces In Wellness By Na'Tasha Jones, and will dive into goals and thoughts that I am choosing to give energy to as we enter the last quarter of 2020.
