Q and A with Valencia D. from Capitol Heights, Maryland
“There’s a risk of losing ourselves in the fast-paced nature of life if we fail to pay attention and stay true to our core values.”
Q: What are you passionate about?
A: I have a deep passion for empowering individuals to achieve healing and become their healthiest, most authentic selves by equipping them with the essential tools and support.

Q: What were your younger years like?
A: I matured quickly and encountered a myriad of challenges throughout my upbringing, including witnessing mental illness, a lack of self-love, low self-esteem, drug-related issues, violence, and abuse within my family. The early loss of my father at the age of six introduced me to trauma, which significantly influenced my life.
Motivated to heal my own heart, I embarked on a personal journey of self-discovery as I grew older. This process ignited a passion within me to assist others in their own healing journeys. Fast forward to today, where I am a mother to seven children (four boys and three girls) and a wife to an amazing man. Recognizing the importance of being the support I lacked in my youth for my own children, I became determined to offer the same guidance and care to them. Through this experience, I realized others also need this kind of support, prompting me to extend my passion for healing to a broader community.

Q: What is something valuable you’d like others to know?
A: I’ve embraced the principle of trusting the process and resisting external pressures to conform to someone else’s expectations. Early on, I recognized that I may not resonate with everyone, and I’ve come to accept that as a natural part of life. Embracing my authentic self has become a paramount aspect of my identity, and I navigate life with the unwavering confidence to be true to who I am without hesitation.

Q: What does feminism mean to you?
A: Though we’ve made significant progress from our past, affording us greater capabilities and opportunities, it’s crucial to stay mindful and authentic. Even with the advancements, there’s a risk of losing ourselves in the fast-paced nature of life if we fail to pay attention and stay true to our core values.
