The 4th Annual Red Dress Luncheon was an empowering event to attend ❤️
Community-Centered Health = Heart-Centered Healing ❤️
True health doesn’t happen in isolation — it happens in community.
When we center health around connection, culture, and collective care, we don’t just strengthen relationships… we strengthen hearts. Research continues to show that strong social support lowers stress, reduces blood pressure, and decreases the risk of heart disease.
Isolation increases cortisol.
Chronic stress strains the heart.
Disconnection impacts physical health.
But community?
Community regulates our nervous systems.
Community gives us purpose.
Community encourages movement, laughter, accountability, and shared healing.
When we create spaces where people feel seen, heard, and supported — we’re actively protecting heart health. Healing circles, group fitness, faith gatherings, neighborhood walks, shared meals — these are not “extras.” They are medicine.
Heart health is not just about diet and exercise.
It’s about belonging.
Let’s build communities that heal — together. 🫶🏽❤️
