Last week was challenging.
Seeing what happened to George Floyd saddened and angered me.
Since I was already going to talk to Dr. Michelle Hannah about her book, The Self Vows: Seven Vows That Will Change Your Life, and the topic of "for richer or for poorer," I also wanted to take this opportunity to talk to her about race relations and the pandemic. Dr. Michelle Hannah has earned a doctorate in spiritual counseling. She's also a master life, business and relationship coach and speaker...
Wasn't that such an inspirational discussion? It really made me feel better, and I hope it helped you too. Go HERE to buy the book or download the Kindle version. This book will truly help you transform your relationships...with yourself, your partners, your money, and your work and purpose in life.
Also, giving money is a good return on investment. It's also a way to heal, to take some action, so in turn, you feel like you're doing something. Here are some options for donating (this is by no means a comprehensive list, just a few from the founder of the FB Group called Hue You Know...for POC in Media):
George Floyd Memorial Funds
"These funds cover funeral and burial expenses, mental and grief counseling, lodging and travel for all court proceedings, and to assist the family in the days to come as we "continue to seek justice for George. A portion of these funds will also go to the Estate of George Floyd for the benefit and care of his children and their educational fund.”
