In This Episode

Lucky and blessed me was born and raised on the beautiful island of Trinidad of Trinidad & Tobago. There I was raised by my grandparents until I was 11 years old. I migrated to the USA at the age of 16, and became a mother at 19. A few years later, earned a scholarship to New York University and went on the attend the University of Delaware. The plan was to attend medical school. However, I took my BSc and MsED degrees and embarked on a career as a science/biology and health educator.

Wellness Crisis

About 7 years ago, I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids. Needless to say, it’s been quite the battle.  A healthy diet and improved lifestyle have helped me to significantly decrease some of the symptoms. However, I’m still living with the benign tumors that are not very pleasant at certain times of the month. Currently, I’m in the process of exploring other alternatives to alleviate the problem, entirely. I’ll be keeping you posted.
