On this inspiring episode of "A Fresh Start Podcast," titled "Church and Therapy" Lenisha shares her story about her experiences of church and therapy within the African American Community. Y’all this episode is truly amazing. For so long therapy has been a taboo subject within the black community. It's ok to have faith and seek therapy, especially a Christian based counselor or therapist that aligns with your belief systems.

I want to say that we are not licensed therapists, doctors, or specialists. On this show we share our real life journey and talk about real life topics and issues. As always you are not alone.

In this episode these topics and more was addressed:
-The taboo subject of "hair" in the black community and how Thebaldgawdez lost her hair, but she embraced her new self. She's bald, she's bold and she's beautiful.
-Her diagnosis of lupus
-The side effects of lupus
-Insecurities
-Self-love
-Resilience
And much more

If YOU or someone you know is or has battled with Lupus and the side effects of Lupus then this episode is for you. In this episode you will laugh, you will be in awe of this young warrior's strength and you WILL be inspired.

I would like to dedicate this episode to my mom in her memory. She was also once diagnosed with lupus. She had lupus, congestive heart failure, COPD, and more, but she was also a fighter and a warrior. I would also like to dedicate this episode to Pastor Judy Traynham who is a powerful woman in ministry. Last, but certainly not least, I would like to dedicate this episode to The Baldgawdez and everyone who is fighting this fight. You are NOT your diagnosis.
