    Peace and Blessings! After a long hiatus, what better day to release a new episode than World Sickle Cell Day as well as Juneteenth!? Sickle Cell isn’t something that should only be acknowledged on June 19 but everyday because of the amount of people affected due to lack of information! Add Juneteenth to the equation and you have an episode that is transparent and necessary.

    In the year 2022, Your health is top priority.

    Happy New Year! With this being the first episode of the year, I wanted to get straight to the point. These are different times and we should use this new year to slowly implement new behaviors and habits. Covid-19’s impact on society is still being felt but if you have a chronic condition, your circumstances are different. Being someone who has sickle cell, this is my opportunity to do the work. Addressing the importance of my physical well-being as well as dieting and the challenges that brings is the overall theme of this episode. Enjoy this episode and hopefully, you can find some insightful ideas to think about as this new year begins. Thank you for listening and again have a happy and healthy new year!

    Physical Therapy, Surgery, or Both?

    A Time to be Selfish.

    On this episode I wanted to address my views of “time” and how it has affected me. The pandemic has forcefully change how, where, and who people spend their time with. For better or worse, creating a opportunity to STOP and understand your situation a tab bit clear than prior. For me, I started to see how having more time than usual was an adjustment that was not as prepared for as I thought. I also touch on being selfish, and how I’ve grown to see how it’s a good thing, and more. Follow
