Today’s Rooted in Wellness Book Club meeting re-inspired me to remember why I chose to create this space in the first place!
Shout out to holistic nutritionist, health and wellness advocate, book club member and overall badass @gennymack__ for the amazing conversation! We took each other to the next level of understanding holistic health and wellness TODAY!
It’s been a year since my lumpectomy last May and I wanted to share an update with y’all💃🏿. I’ve been saying it and will continue to say it…the power to heal is innate in each and every one of us💫. The chapters in the book The Metabolic Approach to Cancer by @drnashawinters was a perfect book to begin with. There is so much to learn and understand about our magnificent bodies!
DM me if you’re interested in joining us every 1st Sunday of the month on Zoom. It’s a great space to learn something new and to be inspired to live the best life you came to live!

This latest episode of An Aromatic Life is the most important conversation I’ve had to date, and I really hope you’ll have a listen. It’s heavy, but necessary.
We’re taught very little about the North Atlantic slave trade in school, and what we do learn stems from only one perspective, the white lens.
This conversation takes a new perspective - through the nose - and boy does that reveal truths we need to learn. Here’s what you can expect in the conversation…
Prof. Kettler begins by defining olfactory racism, and then explains the ‘Anglo Atlantic Nose’ as the English departed for the New World.
He shares important olfactory-focused concepts like “embodied knowledge”, ”miasma theory”, “false consciousness”, and “emotions of disgust.”
He then explains the role of smell during the Middle Passage, the horrific “othering” of the African slave, the role dogs played olfactively, how the Civil War intensifies olfactory racism and makes it worse afterwards, and most importantly the role Capitalism plays in olfactory racism.
He also gives the perspective of the ‘African Nose’, revealing how important smells were to the African resistance.
Prof. Kettler concludes by sharing what he knows to be true after writing this book, tells how we can apply the learnings to our lives today, and reveals what he’s working on next.
This conversation will definitely leave an impression and will give you new perspectives that, as a society, we so desperately need. I hope you’ll have a listen.
Enjoy this episode and many more on Apple podcast, Spotify, Amazon Music, or wherever you get your podcasts. You can also go through the link in bio.
And please don’t forget to subscribe to the podcast so you don’t miss episodes. I’d also be so very grateful if you could rate the podcast so others can find it too. Thank you.

Yes we were vibrant and colorful on a NY summer day 🥰
Finding mentorship and friendship in a person is RARE, but I found it in Anu Prestonia! If you are in the natural hair industry and don’t know her Google her 🔎
15 years ago, I hesitantly reached out, unsure if someone of her stature would make time for me. Yet, without hesitation, she welcomed me with open arms. Since that day, Anu has not only guided me professionally but has also become a dear friend.
Your wisdom, kindness, and generosity have shaped me in ways I never imagined.
You have mothered me in the natural hair Industry and I for that I am forever grateful! 🙏🏾💜 I celebrate you for your unwavering support and for being the mentor and friend I’ve always needed.
This day in NY was memorable 💜
Thank you for everything and your contribution to our industry. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾
