I have been thinking about what it means to witness excellence up close.

During graduate school, I had the opportunity to learn from Wendi Williams, now President of the American Psychological Association.

At the time, I understood I was being taught by someone deeply knowledgeable. What I did not fully grasp was the level of impact and leadership I was witnessing in real time.

There is something significant about being taught by someone who is not only shaping students, but shaping the field itself.

Moments like that stay with you. They expand your understanding of what is possible and what is required to lead with integrity in this work.

Seeing Black women occupy spaces of influence at that level is not just inspiring. It is a clear reminder of the depth, rigor, and leadership we bring to the mental health field.

Deeply saddened by all the Women whos’s lives were tragically ended by their partners/spouses. Relationships are a communal responsibility irregardless of what individualistic society teaches us.
