Description

"It's really beautiful to be able to manifest and be really outlandish and outspoken about what you want to see come to fruition. But there's a piece in that. That is about creating space." - Meckell Milburn

Welcome to Speaking 4 Profit, where your voice is your power! I'm Evolve Benton and for this Speakers Room Live episode, Meckell Milburn shares the importance of vulnerability and allowing yourself space to heal to impact the world.

Meckell Milburn, MA, NBC-HWC is an Integrative Health Practitioner and the owner of the holistic wellness organization, Revolutionary Healing. Meckell's work is holistic, mindfulness-based, and supports people in reclaiming their own divine wisdom. This is done through decolonizing the concept of wellness and reclaiming practices that our communities have historically used to take care of ourselves. Meckell's vision and purpose in life is to increase access to wellness resources for black folks and other oppressed identities.

Meckell holds a master's degree in Integrative Health and is both a Nationally Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC) and certified yoga instructor (RYT-200). She is a contributing author of Integrative Health Coaching: Resource Guide for Navigating Complementary and Integrative Health and a series of eBooks on holistic wellness.

Key Quotes:

"A part of abundance and the momentum of abundance is giving, right? And I think so many of us don't realize we got to give in order to get back." - Evolve Benton

"I was just reminding myself so that I can always go back to that moment, saying, 'You invested in yourself today. Don't forget how valuable that is.' because this is sort of creating a new experience, you're showing up differently for yourself." - Meckell Milburn
