An Ode To Black Women Commences

Welp, if you found this blog it is for a reason, and I can guarantee that you are in the right place. We will call it, Divine intervention. 

My name is Andrea, and I am a 32 year old millennial. I'm a psychotherapist by day and I have a host of hobbies that I engage in by night. Today I woke up and decided that I wanted to create a blog. I don't have a strategic plan or set agenda. I don't know how often I will blog. I don't have a list of topics that I plan to discuss. I didn't even do my research in order to learn what it takes to have a successful blog. I just woke up and started typing. My thought process is that I will figure it out. Just like many things that I have had to do on my own throughout my life, as a Black woman. 

With everything that has transpired in the past two years, I can not pinpoint exactly what sparked this desire to blog. I just know that I am here. What I can unequivocally say is that I want this to be a safe space for Black people; Black women in particular. I want this to be an open letter to you, Black women. After you've finished reading my blogs I want you to walk away refreshed, empowered, enlightened, and at peace. Together we will hold each other accountable, learn, grow, heal, and empower other Black women to do the same. 

Grab some tea, a notebook, and make yourself at home.
