Tonight was so special in MANY ways:
1.) I got to be blessed with a special invite from my sister friend Tiffany who dates back to undergrad years! I got to experience and witness her power and impact at her event Leadership Detox!šŸ’œ Tiff left a text just inquiring about my 3-7pm Sunday agenda. I texted back self care & recovery because my weekend is packed. She then left a voice text saying ā€œyour Sunday agenda is on theme with how I want to pour into you because how you constantly pour into others. And the rest is all she wrote & created….an afternoon/evening to take in ME just for ME! Look into when your high functioning needs to be align with well keeping.
2.) It’s beyond DOPE to have the ā€œI knew them whenā€ moments with your sister friends in the mist of their NOW magnitude!
3.) My Sissy was my guest also blessed Tiffany In her own divine alignment of this evening! And my Sissy truly is my best blend of strength as a pillar to hold me up and softness in the most tender ways to fall in to!

Perfect Weekend Closureā£ļø

2025 has been the biggest heartbreaker….my village has been durable bandagesā£ļø

Annual Katherine (Mommy) Christmas Moment: My Santa is Black AND Beautiful Like Me!šŸ–¤

So I grew surrounded by Christmas decorum that looked like my family, because representation was of the utmost importance to my mother. If you were a friend of my mother and you received a Christmas card, you would receive brown images of Christmas glory! The messages my mother constantly sent my way, before FB think pieces or really my own world wide connection to her wisdom, is why I continue to remain in awe of that woman as her mothering continues to speak to evolving stages of my life!
So story goes, as a little girl I was told by my mother that my Santa Claus was black. My mother informed me Santa morphs into the color of the family he delivers presents to. When he delivers to a black family, he’s black. When he delivers to an Asian family, he’s Asian, etc. So one day this little brown girl went to school, and of course the big man in the red suit was a hot topic, and I proudly proclaimed my Santa was black! My friends friends/classmates laughed and said, ā€œYou’re silly Shameitra, Santa is white.ā€ Now nothing against my friends, many who are my best FB reunions, but this was the late 80’s and the standard image surrounding us was white Santa. My response: ā€œyour Santa maybe white but mine is black!ā€ And this little (and only) brown girl is this conversation held strong to that belief.
I went home and told my mom how my classmates tried to tell me my Santa wasn’t black, and how I told them MY Mom told me the facts about my Santa. I remember her smiling and saying, ā€œ Good Job Mommy!ā€

Later as a teen, my mom and I revisited that moment and I jokingly said, ā€œ Mom how are you going to have me get into a Santa’s ethnicity debate knowing he’s imaginary?ā€
My Mom: First, I was proud of you because you did not allow the majority of people to tell you what wasn’t true about your truth! And second, who bought those gifts?ā€
Me: You and Dad
Mom: Your Dad is black. I am black. Therefore, your Santa was black.

Love that Woman!

What’s familiar: Back to the Year of Firsts with my Dad after 17 years ago of the first round with my Mom. Each loss has its own unique experience and insights but on many occasions my body says ā€œoh yeah this is what fresh parental loss feels like.ā€

What’s New: Another layer of grief of feeling viscerally untethered that the unit of beings who serve as your physical foundation are physically absent. The orphan experience of grief is real and it has nothing to do with age.

What’s consistent & constant: My Love Notes & Check Ins and the abundance of my village desiring to keep me in heartfelt, joyful company during this holiday season. Whatever vibe I’m on, I have a vibe supplier for it and it’s such a bountiful rich manner to be held in grief.

This complexity of dual firsts (Dad/Orphan) and 17th without Mom had me unsure of what I wanted or needed this Thanksgiving up until its close approach. The Sister Cousin was cooking ā€œjust a littleā€ and I made some of my musts taste of Thanksgiving for home….cooking My Mom’s famous potato salad has kept us in the kitchen together STILL.

My professional quote and lived experience of ā€œLife is the intersection of grief & gratitudeā€ stands. Parental Loss and I have a long history together with a new chapter and degrees. The family, trauma, and grief therapist in me will professionally continue to unfold purposefully in my grief specialty motivated by my grief journey in 2026 after I take care of me with some time and grace.

Until then I hope this Thanksgiving was kind & gentle to you and yours and Stay Gold (my intentional way of carrying my parents with me today.)

Grateful I miss their presence so because it means I had their presence deeply!šŸ«¶šŸ¾šŸ˜‡šŸ«¶šŸ¾

The juxtaposition of grief and life…your world halts and flips upside down while the word keeps turning and life is per usual. I’ve had no conscious alignment that voting was happening in sitting with and managing my Dad’s transition.

Got up this morning to study these propositions and vote….because my ancestors couldn’t but prayed, fought, and stood knowing I would!šŸ–¤

Headed back Home (my undergrad and chapter initiated into my beloved Sorority!) One of my Little Sisters who’s also one of mg newest colleagues will be joining me on evening of speaking to young ladies about being a good consumer of mental healthā£ļø

I recently had one of my Spring 10 little sisters shared that she remember her first sight of me when she was an attendee of a mental health event my Spring 08 little sisters asked me to speak at. She said ā€œseeing you when I was 17 years old as a black therapist was the first time I told myself I must get me together on my own mental journey…and then I was excited to meet you as my Big Sister Soror!ā€

I said YES again with that recent God wink in mind. Impact on confirmation and affirmation of mental and emotional wellness is what it’s all aboutā£ļø

My most revered descriptor that proceeds my name or follows is ā€œKatherine’s Daughter.ā€ Your parents voice definitely becomes your internal voice and barometer and THANK YOU GOD for arming me with her voice in my esteem, worth, and my compass!

I grew up always hearing my Mom speak to the EVERYTHING of black girls and women. It didn’t come across as forced lessons but an ongoing soundtrack to my value and divine design!

And in the biggest to smallest ways, my lens is do I see the best of me reflected in this world, environment, connection, etc. For example, I have ALWAYS had issue with these machines that make brown hues literally invisible. So this machine is meant to capture my identity to be recognized as an approved presence on this site while having me wear myself as a blacked out figure with my name next to it! So I typically would not wear these on me as a badge and I would always make a comment )if only for my self expression) to say ā€œthis company really should invest in equipment that properly identifies the range of humans that walk in as guests.ā€ And the person (if they were in proximity of appearance to me) would agree or the person would be right off guard that I made apparent apparent! I would also end these moments with a smirk and the inside voice declaring ā€œI’m Katherine’s Child.ā€

Why? Because I grew up hearing my Mom share how she experienced the world as a little black girl & young black teenager to evolving woman, growing up thinking it was unfair that black women had to figure out how to PEACE meal things to compliment their beauty or imagine what matters look like or feel in the reflection or complexion of herself. So when the world did their best attempts in my childhood to reflect my family and myself, my mother made sure to inundate me with those visuals because the world operated off of lessening me for the benefit of gaining off me. Now she was quite direct about that because the truth for her was not to be diluted or polluted.

So today when this visitor pass printed out to capture this good Drivers License picture and God delivered features, i said ā€œLook at this Mom…..thank you for resonating so I could register it allā£ļøšŸ˜‰

The timing of getting the notice that I had been nominated as a feature for Voyage Houston Magazine’s Inspiring Conversations Series and the timing of the publishing of this article can honestly carry it’s own title ā€œIn The Midst Of and In Spite Of….ā€

Let me first start by thanking my sister friend and Soror for thinking of me as a inspiring person to share with ! When people move loudly and proudly on your behalf and behind your back, it’s a reminder that your impact is a resonating and reverberating energy and you have a responsibility to decide if it’s a positive or negative frequency.

To know me and to follow me is to know I love a God wink moment and share! Behind the scenes for nearly all of my career, there are specific people who constantly shout ā€œwrite the books, do the tv appearances, or just give more of you outside of your office because you are the truth not just a showcase.ā€ Some of those things and routes are their wishes for me, though I’m grateful of the message that my purpose, passion, expertise, and authenticity as a licensed therapist and healer are valued. However, my prayers, my goals, and my path are oriented in my desire to be impactful not merely popular.

In my God winks, I understand that purpose propels and I welcome and I’m grateful for all opportunities that draw me out with substance and graceā£ļø

When society CAN’T STOP WON’T STOP telling survivors of abuse ā€œthey should have said somethingā€ while simultaneously telling them to ā€œShut Up, your truth is disturbing my disjointed reality!ā€

The P. Diddy Verdict of it all….for now!

I was taking care of some wishful thoughts and manifesting business this evening.

This was my concluding ā€œbeen outsideā€ sight for the dayā£ļø

I’m taking it as my Somewhere Over The Rainbow God WinkšŸ™šŸ¾šŸ˜

Healing, Connection, Affirmation, etc is around us all the time! You just have to be in your body and regulated enough to recognize it when you see itā£ļø

I grew up, as a Texas Black American girl, with family gatherings and barbecues on this day because Juneteenth was always recognized by US for US!

So it’s still weird to me to hear later knowledge of it and nation wide celebration.

But Black liberation and history anywhere is Black Liberation and history everywhere….and is why we are infused in all roots and truths!āœŠšŸ¾

Happy Juneteenth!ā¤ļøšŸ¤šŸ’™

Sometimes you have to get through before your body and heart can take in all that it has endured to say ā€œWhew that was A LOT!ā€

Today I sat in the full acknowledgement and clean up of it all…from my NEWLY repaired car, to my new office, to the old and new transition of care for my father, to calling back all my new-ish referrals thankful for their grace because adding more needs of people to my stock pile of have to’s must do’s last month was NOT conceivable! That self validation is part of resilience and strength…it’s similarly connected to when our outlets come in the form of an OUCH, a long sigh, a tear or two or many, or a praise.

June, please be kind to me and bring good recovery!šŸ™šŸ¾
