Manage episode 519699669 series 3450045
Today’s episode is a love letter to every woman of color who’s ever felt like she had to choose between her heritage and her health. The truth? You don’t have to give up your roots to feel well. You can honor your ancestors and your body at the same time.
Welcome to Holistic Health for Women of Color Podcast, where healing meets heritage. I’m Donna Williams, Certified Holistic Health Coach, guided by ancestral wisdom, lived experience, and heart-centered practices. After navigating hbp and meds side effects, I chose a holistic path, now I support women of color in reclaiming health with rhythm, rest, and ritual. Your body is wise, your lineage is rich, and your wellness is sacred.
When I first started my own wellness journey, I felt torn, between what the health world said I "should" do, and what felt natural in my own life and culture. So many wellness plans ignored the foods, traditions, and rhythms that shaped me. Maybe you’ve felt this too? Like you’re forced to choose between your roots and your health.
I want to clarify Why Culturally Sensitive Wellness Routines Matters.
What Gets in the Way
1: What is culturally sensitive wellness Routine
2: Why mainstream wellness often misses us
3: The ROOTS framework
Three plug-and-play routines
Real-life barriers and what to say/do
Guided grounding
Putting it together this week
If this is resonating and you want a customized plan, I offer 1-on-1 holistic coaching designed for women of color who want to reclaim health without giving up their roots. Spots are limited so I can give each client deep care.
I want you to Honor your lineage. Heal forward.
