A message from the editor

In 2020, during a global pandemic and a time of civil unrest in America, I asked myself what I could do to get involved in a positive way which promoted change. Tensions were high after the death of George Floyd at the hands of the police. The stories being reported all over the news included a lot of negativity and I wanted to change that. I began a Podcast that focused in on positivity, highlighting organizations and individuals in an attempt to inspire others. That Podcast deepened my own understanding of what additional services I could provide to help others. A lot of our anxiety and stress we experience in life is based around financial issues or critical thinking skills that we haven't developed. I now help people deal with this. 

Too many times we hear of all the negatives going on in this world and I wanted to balance that with some positive stories.  My strong belief in God helped me to understand that part of my purpose is to be transparent and authentic with others in a way that they can see their own potential to transform their own negative stories. 

My life has been all about turning negatives into positives and my new business endeavor was designed to do the same. A lot of people don’t really know this but even my company’s logo for The BACK Community, LLC, the image of a back, is the actual silhouette of my back after a run in with the police. It was later resolved and rectified but it was a negative experience for me none the less. Instead of focusing on the negative experiences' life throws at us sometimes we have to flip it. Our hurts and pains have value and those experiences when channeled correctly can be used to help others. Thanks for being a part of the TBC experience.
