What is Black joy? How do we create and maintain a healthy lifestyle in these challenging times. Our expert panel will discuss some tips and practices including mental health therapy, community health care resources, holistic approaches, healthy eating, life coach lessons and self-care. Join us as we seek to put more joy in our lives.

She creates a space for growth and healing.
