Take YOU off the backburner of your life and quit living life for everyone else but you. Embrace the Pink Flamingo Way: Serve others in a way that honors God, YOU, and them.
I was beautiful and accomplished on the outside, but miserable on the inside. I showed up for others smiling but battled constant anxiety and self-hate. I felt unseen, unloved & stressed. I was deeply dissatisfied with life. Can you relate? After nearly losing my mind and life, I teamed up with God to ditch societal expectations, own my voice & embrace my exceeding abundant purpose.
This meant walking away from my corporate job with only 3 months of savings to my name. Literally moving on faith and a prayer, but easily the best decision of my life!
Today, I am a joyful speaker, author, entrepreneur and champion for emotional wellness in Caribbean as a gateway to healing the psychological wounds of slavery and addressing its effects. With a 200-watt smile, I am fired up to empower billions through business and ministry to live life by one golden rule: “Serve others in a way that honors God, you & them”. Or as Jesus puts it, “Love God. Love YOU. Love Your Neighbor.” (Matt. 22:36-39) so you quit living life for everyone else but you.
My story is not unique.
It is the story of men and women in Costa Rica and on cruise ships. It is the story a Brazilian woman I met in the airport. It is the story a man who bared his soul and cried as I hugged him in the mountains. It may be your story too.
And because of that, I want you to know one thing…
You matter too! Our Heavenly Father created you with love and intention. You are seen and loved. You are promised joy and peace as you interact and serve others. You deserve to live life for you too. You can be a sibling, spouse, leader, cousin, child, parent, employee, entrepreneur, [insert your label/role] who shows up for people without putting yourself on the backburner of your life.
You are loved, and you do not need to waive your boundaries to bribe anyone to stay. You can confidently and safely live and speak your truth without fear of losing the ones you love. You deserve to be your Pink Flamingo joyful and peaceful self. Someone who loves God. Someone who loves YOU. And loves others.
Own your pink! Step into a world where you matter too!
Our overarching goal is to help Caribbean people and their families and communities heal from the psychological wounds of slavery and its effects. Every single Pink Flamingo book and initiative tackle this problem. We are creating as many Caribbean pink flamingos as possible.
We donate 10% of our revenue to send people to therapy and support child emotional wellness education. We also donate the profits from “In Search of the Pink Flamingo” to grassroot organizations that foster the emotional recovery of Caribbean child sexual abuse survivors.
Here is how you can invest in creating more Caribbean flamingoes:
Let’s spread our pink flamingo wings and expand the Caribbean flock together!
Take YOU off the backburner of your life. Never put YOURSELF last again. Embrace the Pink Flamingo Way. Be empowered and equipped to serve others in ways that honor YOU, them, & God.
