Welcome to Season 2, where I will focus on health and well-being. New York Times and international bestselling author Eleanor Brown states, "Self-care is not selfish. You cannot serve from an empty vessel." How true that is. I learned this twice in my life. Once while battling a Texas employer in a civil lawsuit and once when I became overwhelmed with the demands of creativity.
I am excited that one of these stories is detailed in My memoir: "Daddy's House: A Daughter's Memoir of Setbacks, Triumphs & Rising Above Her Roots," due in December. Be the first to know when it is available by following me here.
