I created Bella Minded as a way to find my voice, purpose and who I am. As a Black Woman I was so angry, hard and defensive and it didn't make for a happy life. I felt as though I was merely existing and surviving. I refused to accept that this was the gist of my life; feeling as though I had to fight to be seen, heard and respected as a Black Woman. So I started to do the work and it started with me changing the way I thought, my mentality. I didn't have to be hard, defensive or angry. I realized that I loved being a woman, being feminine and it was a burden but yet a strength. I could just be; whether it was meditating, yoga, or mastering my energy. As I gradually got over my hurdles, I realized that I wasn't the only woman struggling with this. So I decided to share what I learned so that it may help other women. I wanted to be an example of how finding and being your authentic self will attract so much abundance in your life as it has done for me. Once I learned that apart of who I was, was in fact my femininity everything else fell in place
