How I Got Pregnant (Without IVF) at 47
I’m well aware that I have so many more choices than women who came before me. Diving into womanhood with enough luck and access to the right resources, I knew I could set out on any career I wanted, create as much success as I wanted, and thanks to IVF, I could have a baby whether a man was involved or not — and I could possibly even get pregnant later in life than has ever been possible before. For many shek

At an early age, Black children are indoctrinated with the mantra to be twice as good to get half of what they have. It is in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the handprint on our souls. While I don’t remember being specifically told that I had to be twice as good as my white schoolmates, I got the message in other ways. Living with drug-addicted parents made my early childhood unstable. But once my grandparents “Black adopted” shek

I’ve Treated People With Dementia for a Decade — Here’s What I Want Family Caregivers to Know
My first job changed my life. As a recent graduate, I landed my first role as an occupational therapist at a nursing home where I was assigned to the memory care unit. One person on my caseload was an individual living with dementia, and I naively treated it like any of my other cases. So when I asked them to come to therapy, they responded by pouring juice on me. Obviously, having juice-stained scrubs is not a great impression for shek

The aftermath of trauma also doesn’t come quietly and when the post-trauma stress hits, it can leave in its wake nothing but distress. That’s what residual symptoms do. When you begin to heal and are finally on calmsage
