As we contemplate our political climate of war, environmental concerns, identity, including gender identity, and the multiple layers of marginalization that perpetuate fear, uncertainty, and a sense of loss, we must remember that there is one thing we can control from our individual lens. Staying the course. As a political scientist, we are taught to read the rooms of history and interrogate shifts in trends; as a scholar, activist, and author, I understand walking the tightrope of our social contract, and as a #Blackwoman, my personhood and the Black bodies of those that look like me, is constantly threatened. In all these spaces, we must continue to tell our story, push beyond fear to hope, and be the bearers and witnesses to history the way those who survived the over 200 years of enslavement so we could live did. I advocate for: ~ Community ~ Network ~ Afrocentricity and African-Centeredness ~ SKU and the Sense of Being ~ Being authentic in our walk and our talk ~ Supporting the ecosystem that must live so WE LIVE Thank you, #SankofaBookstore, and Dr. Traci Wyatt of #TWDT, for the opportunity and space to serve, share information, and build community. It is my hope that the gems provided are uplifting and move us forward. https://lnkd.in/ewnSrqQZ

VERY POWERFUL AND INSIGHTFUL INFORMATION

This is very insightful.

I published a book in 1993. It was such a nightmare, I promised myself I would never write another book. Years ago, Nancy L. Erickson was the guest speaker at a Business Development Team (BDT) meeting. During her presentation, my memory of writing my first book triggered me and I couldn’t wait to get out of there. God had a different plan. I left that meeting telling myself, “No freaking way I’m ever writing a book again.” Over the course of the next year, God was tugging at my heart. I called Nancy for an exploratory conversation. Long story short, here is my book: A Well-Launched Life: How Young People Can Live an Intentional, Fulfilling Life https://a.co/d/bIVZw2a I consider myself a “process” expert. Nancy’s process for helping you write a book that will help other people is OUTSTANDING!!! If you have a story in your head that will benefit other people, you need to call Nancy for 2 reasons: 1) Left alone, you will never finish writing your book. 2) If you were capable of proving my #1 reason above incorrect, the finished product would be sub-par compared to the finished product you would produce using Nancy’s process. Now pick up your phone and call Nancy! #awelllaunchedlife #thebookprofessor #lifecoaching
