Some moments feel bigger than the moment itself.
Walking into the Auburn Avenue Research Library to hear Felicia Leatherwood share from Root Therapy felt like more than a book reading.
It felt like a reminder.
A reminder of the woman I was 14 years ago.
A reminder of the things I carried that nobody could see.
A reminder that sometimes God allows us to reconnect with people from an old chapter so we can finally see the chapter—and ourselves—with new eyes.
There are things I couldn’t recognize then that I can recognize now.
Growth.
Healing.
Peace.
Wisdom.
And the grace to say, “Look how far God has brought me.”
We spend so much time asking God for what’s next that we don’t always pause long enough to thank Him for what we’ve already become.
Dionna O. | Traveling Extension Specialist Sis, you shine bright & your heart is pure. Thank you. It was a pleasure meeting you. Until next time continue shining!!
So here’s my question for you:
What part of your life would look completely different if you slowed down long enough to recognize your growth?
Tell me in the comments. I want to celebrate it with you. 🤎
And if you’re a woman, especially a Black woman, add Root Therapy to your reading list. It’s a beautiful conversation about hair, identity, self-love, and finding yourself.

14 years later.
I reconnected with the woman in this photograph, and I showed her this picture from 2012.
She looked at it, smiled with so much warmth, and said, “I just saw this picture… and yes, I remember you.”
Then she said something that stayed with me:
“You are happy now.”
Little did she know—and honestly, little did I fully understand at the time—how emotionally unhappy I was in that season of my life.
I was smiling in this picture. I was working. I was showing up. I was moving forward.
But inside, I was carrying things I didn’t have the words for yet.
And isn’t it something how God will bring people, places, and moments full circle?
Sometimes we are so focused on where we’re going that we forget to stop and look at where we’ve been.
Slow down.
Look at the woman you were.
Look at the things you survived.
Look at the prayers you prayed.
Look at the things you no longer tolerate.
Look at the peace you didn’t have then but have now.
Look at how much you’ve grown.
Maybe the evidence of your growth isn’t always in what you’ve accomplished.
Sometimes it’s in who you’ve become.
So, sis… where do you need to slow down long enough to recognize just how far you’ve come?
And if you’re a woman—especially a Black woman—I encourage you to get a copy of Root Therapy by Felicia Leatherwood. This book goes beyond hair and opens conversations around identity, self-love, acceptance, and the journey of finding yourself. (Simon & Schuster)
Felicia Leatherwood, you have been a mentor to me in this industry since before we even met in 2012. You are truly a gift from God, and I’m grateful for sistahs like you who continue to shine, teach, and spread light.
The Hair Whisperer. The teacher. The light.
And now… another full-circle moment. 🤎

National Crown Day is rooted in the fight for equity and the protection of our right to wear our natural hair without discrimination. It represents freedom, identity, culture, and the beauty of our roots.
As a Master Cosmetologist, educator, and advocate for healthy hair, I stand firmly for Black women and men embracing the crown God gave them—locs, coils, curls, kinks, and all.
Your hair is not “too much.”
It is not unprofessional.
It is not something to hide.
It is your heritage.
It is your power.
It is your crown.
Today we celebrate progress, but we continue the work of making every space safe for us to show up fully and authentically.
Wear your crown. In every room. Every season. Every time. 👑
EL You definitely did your things on my hair lawk!!! Thank u for seeing me!! ☺️
