Hi everyone. I’m sharing my self project with the community here. This year, as a New Year’s resolution, I resolved to start doing pitch meetings with at least family and friends about a dream idea. In short, I want to create a summer living experience for my kids, nieces, nephews and the children of friends and acquaintances. It’s easy to think of it as an away summer camp and that wouldn’t be wrong but it wouldn’t be completely accurate. I envision something with foundations of deepening guided education, spirit, connection to family and cohort, and more. I envision this being placed on the campus of Piney Woods School bc I would also want to elevate other Black institutions with this. Thoughts? Let’s discuss.

My intentions are to make progress and accomplish 1 thing a day. Das it. Today the goal is to finish my summer syllabus. What about you? How will you make progress this week?

For our fourth interview, called Liberated Genius Conversations, Dr. April talks with Rebecca Bennett on how community is medicine. Learn how we heal and grow stronger together—because when we heal in community, we free OUR genius. Please comment what resonated with you. 3 Questions: 1. When did you fall in love with community healing and how did you know it was for you? 2. What are three 3 benefits of community healing? 3. When were you first introduced to community healing as a practice? About Rebeccah Bennett: InPower Institute’s Founder and Root Teacher.

She talked about acupuncture as a healing system versus a diseased system. Fun fact that she shared: The Black Panthers used acupuncture as a community healing system and helped to bring it into the mainstream United States of America.
