    80: Loud Whisper Origins: My Truth, My Voice, My Becoming

    Where it all began the story behind the healing space that found me first. In 2021, I sat down with the luminous Debbie Brimble of Inner Brilliance Academy for a conversation that touched places in me I hadn't yet named. It was raw. Tender. Unfiltered. So much so, that I never released it. At the time, I didn’t fully understand why. Maybe I wasn’t ready to be that honest. Maybe I was still finding the courage to let my own voice take up space. But recently, I stumbled upon the recording—and when I pressed play, I wept. This wasn’t just an interview. It was a sacred mirror. A reflection of a woman on the edge of transformation. In this rare role reversal, Debbie interviews me—and what unfolds is the untold story of Loud Whisper… where it came from, the ancestral truth it carries, and how I realized I had been living my life on mute. I speak openly about survival, about growing up among fierce women who didn’t have a voice—and how I unknowingly inherited that silence. I share how, on the brink of turning 40, I found myself wide awake at 3AM, deeply unfulfilled, and asking, “Is this all there is?” This conversation is more than a look back. It’s a reclamation. A reminder that healing is never on a timeline—it unfolds when your soul says, Now. So here it is. Finally. An offering from my heart to yours.  May it meet you exactly where you are. The Loud Whisper Podcast: The Healing Space is your health and wellness podcast the place where you can pause, breathe, and heal. Here, we explore conversations that nourish the mind, body, and soul, guiding you back to balance, clarity, and truth. ✨ Stay connected with me, Isabel Draughon: Website: www.isabeldraughon.com Instagram: @isabel_draughon LinkedIn: Isabel Draughon If you loved this episode, please subscribe, rate, and leave a review—your support helps us amplify these soulful conversations.

    78: A Powerful Dialogue Unveiling the Silent Journey of All Women Through Perimenopause & Menopause Honoring Midlife Wisdom, Reclaiming Our Bodies, and Amplifying the Voices of Women of Color

    EPISODE  In this powerful and heart-opening episode, I sit down with Women's Health Nurse Practitioner and Midlife Wellness Advocate, Yewande Banire, for a much-needed conversation on the silent journey all women face from perimenopause to menopause and the deeper layers often left unspoken, especially for Black and Brown women. We shed light on the quiet suffering, confusion, and shame many women endure during this natural transition, and we name what too often goes unnamed: Black women are not being seen, heard, or prioritized in conversations around their health. Despite the medical advancements and resources available, only 4% of women in the U.S. are receiving proper hormone therapy. What does this mean for women in underserved communities and women across the African diaspora where education, resources, and cultural permission to speak are even more limited? Together, we dive into: The stigma, silence, and shame around menopause and sexual wellnessWhy so many women feel alone during this transitionThe systemic neglect of Black women in clinical research and careThe emotional, physical, and cultural barriers to healingHow we begin to reclaim our bodies, our stories, and our sacred cyclesYewande shares her mission to educate and empower women especially women of color to understand their changing bodies, advocate for their well-being, and speak their truth without fear. This episode is more than a dialogue it’s a healing declaration. For every woman who's been told to stay quiet. For every woman who feels unseen. For every woman finally ready to come home to herself. We see you. We hear you. And your healing matters. Press play, and let the healing begin. #LoudWhisperPodcast #MidlifeWellness #BlackWomensHealthMatters #MenopauseAwareness #ReclaimYourBody #WomensHealth #PerimenopauseSupport #YewandeBanire #IsabelDraughon #ComeHomeToYourself #SpeakLoudLiveFree The Loud Whisper Podcast: The Healing Space is your health and wellness podcast the place where you can pause, breathe, and heal.
