2025 Theme: Celebrating Men and Boys 🌟
This year, we honour the men and boys who are learning that strength is more than muscle, titles, or responsibility. It’s also the courage to speak, to feel, and to heal.

✅Too many men carry silent battles.
✅Too many boys grow up believing emotions make them weak.

But today, we celebrate a new kind of strength, the strength of mental and emotional wellbeing.

We celebrate the men who are choosing therapy, opening up, asking for help, and challenging old narratives.

We celebrate the boys who are learning early that expressing themselves is not a flaw, but a foundation for a healthier future.

Your mental health is not a side issue. It is the core of who you are, and it shapes how you lead, love, and live.

A man rises with purpose when he learns to face his mind, feel his heart, and heal his wounds. Because purpose doesn’t come from perfection, it comes from alignment, self-awareness, and the willingness to grow.

To every man and boy:
🎯Rise, not by hiding your struggles, but by owning them.
🎯Rise, not by pretending you’re fine, but by reaching for the support you deserve.
🎯Rise, not by silence, but by honesty, healing, and hope.

Your rise is powerful.
Your rise is needed.
And when you rise with purpose, you help entire communities rise with you. 💛

A heartfelt thank you to Laudem Conservatory of Music and Beyond Beginnings Academy for the kind invitation to have Mrs. Placide facilitate the “Mindful Parenting: Nurturing YOU to Nurture Them

It was such a joy to partner with you in creating a space for parents to pause, reflect, and refocus on their own well-being, because when parents are nurtured, children thrive..

Together, we’re building emotionally healthy homes, one mindful moment at a time. 💕

What an incredible Saturday we shared! 💖 Our Girl, Don’t Believe the Lie, workshop was more than just an event, it was a sacred space of truth,
healing, and empowerment.

We watched as girls courageously confronted the lies that try to define their worth and instead embraced God’s truth about who they are: loved, chosen, and enough. ✨

Through real conversations, reflective activities, and moments of prayer, each participant was reminded that she is a diamond, precious, strong, and full of purpose.

The Girls were reminded to close the door to lies and open their hearts to the truth. Every lie that tried to limit them loses its power today.

To our beautiful participants: thank you for showing up with open hearts. To our facilitator Denielle Placide , volunteers Bernadette Elizabeth Gill , Seema Adhin and parents your support and presence made all the difference. 🙏🏽

As we continue this journey, let’s keep declaring God’s truth over our lives and lifting each other higher. Because when girls know the truth, they walk in freedom. 💫

Thanks to teen mentors of The Priceless Foundation for Women for your continued support.

A healthy relationship doesn’t run on “feelings alone" , it requires C.O.D. Not cash on delivery, but Communication. Observation. Discernment ~ Samantha Durden

Communication builds clarity and trust. It is honest conversations, expressed needs, shared expectations, and willingness to listen — not assume. Silence doesn't create safety; truth does.

Observation reveals reality. Pay attention to patterns, not words. Watch how someone handles stress, accountability, disagreement, and responsibility. Consistency speaks louder than chemistry.

Discernment protects your heart. It is the wisdom to recognize what is healthy versus harmful, potential versus readiness, charm versus character. Discernment helps you pause where your emotions want to rush.

Strong love is not accidental. It is formed through intentional connection, mindful awareness, and wise decision-making.

Don’t just fall in love, grow in wisdom as you love.
Choose C.O.D. and build relationships that are rooted, steady, and true.

If you need relationship support please reach out to us and we would be happy to walk alongside you ..

Thank you to our featured speaker, Samantha Durden, Relationship Preparation Strategist, for pouring into us over these past two weeks. Your presence, insight, and transparency created a learning experience that was both rich and deeply moving.

You challenged the participants to rethink what real connection looks like and to distinguish between the appearance of compatibility and the substance of true partnership.

You helped them to understand the difference between the length of a relationship and the depth of it, and to see clearly the difference between red flags and simple human flaws. You equipped us to communicate with intention, observe with wisdom, and discern with maturity. Most importantly, you reminded us not to awaken love before its time — to honor emotional readiness, clarity, and purpose in our relationships.

We are grateful for the time, heart, and wisdom you shared. Thank you to all who joined and engaged with such openness. Stay tuned — more enriching sessions are ahead.

When Uncertainty Weighs on the Nation: Understanding Ambient Trauma

Uncertainty can take a toll on our emotional and mental wellbeing. When we sense tension in the air, when news feels unclear and the atmosphere feels charged it can quietly awaken fear, anxiety, and even old memories of instability.

Sometimes you are not even sure what it is but, “Something just feels off.” You can’t always explain it, but you feel it. The tension, the uncertainty, the not knowing.

This kind of uncertainty can be traumatic because it shakes our sense of safety.

Even if nothing has happened directly, the constant anticipation, the waiting, the watching, the wondering can create “ambient trauma” or “collective stress.”

It’s the trauma of living with unanswered questions, of sensing that something could happen, yet having no control over what or when. It is an emotional strain because the environment around us feels unsafe or unpredictable. .

For some, this may echo past experiences times when life felt unstable, when they didn’t know what would happen next, when security seemed fragile. These memories, even buried ones, can quietly resurface.

Here’s how we can care for ourselves and each other when living through this kind of invisible pressure:

1️⃣ Name What You Feel. Unspoken fear grows louder. When we name our emotions anxious, uneasy, tense we begin to take back control from them.

2️⃣ Stay Present and Grounded. When the mind starts to race ahead, slow it down. Breathe deeply, pray, journal, or focus on a comforting routine.

3️⃣ Choose Connection Over Isolation. Talk to someone you trust. Emotional connection helps calm the nervous system and restores perspective.

4️⃣ Manage Media Intake. Constant exposure to speculation or alarming headlines can heighten stress. Set boundaries around your news and social media time.

5️⃣ Reassure the Children. Kids often absorb adult emotions. Offer honest but calm reassurance remind them they are safe and loved.

6️⃣ Seek Calm in Community. Whether it’s faith gatherings, family meals, or quiet walks safe spaces remind us that peace still exists, even when the world feels tense.

☺️They say opposites attract... but can they actually last?

You know the story🫣 one’s loud and spontaneous, the other’s quiet and structured.
At first, it’s exciting. It feels like balance. But over time… those same differences can cause friction.

So what really makes a relationship work — sameness or synergy?

This week’s post dives deep into what keeps couples connected when personalities, preferences, or lifestyles don’t always align. 💬

👉 Swipe through the carousel to discover:
✨ Why shared values matter more than shared interests
🌱 How differences can actually strengthen your bond
💡 And what it really takes for “opposites” to thrive — not just survive.

Take a moment to reflect:
1️⃣ What’s one difference between you and your partner that actually makes you stronger?

2️⃣ Have you ever dated your opposite? How did it work out? Drop a ❤️ if you believe opposites can last — or a 😅 if you’ve learned otherwise!

3️⃣ God often uses our differences to shape us, not separate us. Tag your “opposite” and thank them for helping you grow in love and grace.

💛Becoming One Without Losing Yourself.
Love should make you grow, not make you disappear.

Yes, relationships are about two becoming one, but that doesn’t mean one person should vanish in the process. Too often, people give up their friendships, abandon their passions, and mute their voices all in the name of “togetherness.”

But unity doesn’t require invisibility. The healthiest relationships celebrate individuality while building partnership. You should still have a life outside of the relationship, your hobbies, your friendships, your dreams, your faith.

In fact, when two people bring their best, most authentic selves into a relationship, both flourish. The “we” becomes stronger because the “me” was never erased.

👉 The right love won’t ask you to shrink. It will water the seeds of who you are so you can bloom together.

💬 Reflection: What dream or passion are you still pursuing while in your relationship?

HOW IT ALL BEGAN

We launched Safe Place Family Life Enrichment Centre Ltd for Counseling and Life Coaching services in January 2020. Birthed out of our own story, journey, and pursuit back to wholeness, healing, and unity.

Now we can tell you that relationships with others can be the source of our greatest joys and satisfactions, but they can also be the source of our greatest challenges, distress, and heartache.

Over our 21 years of marriage, we had our “for better and for worse moments". However, it was in the “seemly worse" that the stability of our relationship was threatened to the point of considering a divorce. In those moments we struggled to find a space to connect deeply, navigate life’s challenges, and be healed from various situations without judgment.

Early in our Christian walk, everything was considered “taboo” and the idea of us coming forward with courtship and or marital problems was not open for discussion.
