    “When It Hurts Too Much To Heal… Lean In”

    Healing isn’t always peaceful. Sometimes it’s painful, uncomfortable, emotional, and at times, intrusive!

    In this message, I open up about growing up in a home shaped by addiction, tension, unpredictability, and emotional pain. As a kid, I didn’t know how to process the confusion, anger, disappointment, and hurt that came with loving a father I was often frustrated with at the same time.

    Over the years, I began to realize that my unhealed pain wasn't simply going to disappear. It followed me into adulthood, relationships, marriage, identity, and the way I saw myself and the world around me.

    One of the most valuable lessons I’ve learned on my healing journey is this:
    real healing requires us to lean into the painful places we’ve spent years trying to survive.

    Just like a deep wound has to be cleaned before it can properly heal, emotional wounds often require us to revisit painful memories, unresolved emotions, and hidden scars on our hearts before we can experience true restoration.

    This conversation is for anyone carrying silent pain…
    Anyone wrestling with family dysfunction, resentment, grief, disappointment, trauma, or emotional wounds that still ache beneath the surface.

    My hope is that this message reminds you:
    Healing is possible.
    But healing often begins the moment we finally have the courage to LEAN IN.

    Erica Campbell is a 5x-Grammy Award WINNING recording artist who has sold millions of records, both as a solo performer and a part of the iconic duo Mary Mary with her sister Tina Campbell. In 2022, her career reached a new pinnacle as she and her sister performed Lift Every Voice in front of millions (a global audience at that!) at Super Bowl 56, right here in her hometown of Inglewood, CA!! She’s also an author, actress, host of a nationally syndicated radio show, an amazing mommy and wife, and very importantly to me…. Someone who I’m blessed to call friend 🙏🏽.

    Some Keypoints of the Episode:
    - Making sure your "pretty has power."
    - How and why it's so important to forgive those who have hurt you the most.
    - Why Erica slides into folk's DMs from time to time. 👀
    - Finding our voice, in the midst of adversity.
    - Being held hostage by something you love the most?!
    - I open up about my connection with Erica that I've never spoken about publicly.
    - We even had a surprise visit from one of Erica's most favorite-est people in the world!
