🚨🚨🚨 Free Virtual Workshop!!🚨🚨🚨

🙋🏾‍♀️You’re the expert in your mind, brain, and body. So when the mind, brain, and body say that something is “off,” it is a very real and very much a problem to be addressed.

I mean, why wouldn't the same mind, brain, and body that has contributed to your building the successful business, getting the promotion, educating & mentoring the children, representing the client in court, nursing the patient, choosing the spouse, raising the children, leading within the community, making the tough decision, etc., be accurate this time?

But what happens when nobody else listens enough to find what is causing or contributing to the feeling mentally or physically "off,” like those symptoms that persist despite doing “everything right,” or the feeling mentally or physically sick when told, "everything looks normal?"

⏰On Wednesday, August 12th at 7 PM EST, I am hosting a free 90-minute virtual workshop for Black women experts, leaders, role models, and game changers called "When Doing 'Everything Right' or Being Told 'Everything Looks Normal' Was Never 'Right' or 'Normal' For You!"

You'll get the 3 keys to finally getting personalized answers, personalized treatment, and actual results!

In honor of the time invested with me, the live attendees will get my 🧪12 Critical Labs Checklist and Reflective Health Guide, as well as get to participate in a live 🗨️Q&A

"If you go looking for something, you'll find it." Many of us have heard the saying, and maybe it has stopped some of us from looking!

But the desire to look is the very time when we NEED TO KEEP LOOKING!

Or INVESTIGATE, as we say.

Because that desire is our mind, brain, and body telling us to!

If we continue to experience persistent mental & physical health-related symptoms, illnesses, and diagnoses, despite doing "everything right."

When the medications have been tried.
When the appointments have been scheduled.
When the questions have been asked, without getting answers.

This is exactly when our mind, brain, and body are telling us to KEEP LOOKING (before things get worse)!

INVESTIGATE.
GET ANSWERS!!

When women finally make the decision to DO their mental & physical health and healthcare differently, against the status quo, by way of personalized investigative medicine & psychiatry...

Because they are done with healthcare as per usual; done continuing to experience a decline in their health, while knowing something is being missed, dismissed, overlooked, or even ignored.

Because they are ready to get personalized answers, personalized treatment, and DIFFERENT results.

Because they have life to live. Relationships to enjoy. Businesses to start and run. Lives to impact...

Here are a few labs that I check that actually explain a lot, especially when they say, "I've tried everything." "Nothing is getting better." "I felt worse on that medication." "I've been diagnosed as treatment-resistant" or told, "Everything looks normal."

🔥hs-CRP catches inflammation years before it shows up as a heart attack.
🧠COMT explains why stress hits hard, why hormones are all over the place & meds don't work the way they should
🥺MTHFR reveals why your body is deficient in the nutrients it needs to protect your heart, your brain, and your mood.

Those persistent symptoms, illnesses, and diagnoses are the mind, brain, and body telling us to INVESTIGATE.

Get access to the 🧪10 Critical Labs That Most Doctors Don't Check For Black Women (And Why They Matter) Checklist & Guide.

Check your score.
See if anything begins to make sense.

🙋🏾‍♀️Still doing the same things BUT expecting different results when it comes to mental and physical health and healthcare?

Is it time to DO your mental & physical health and healthcare differently?

🚨Quiz Alert🚨 https://beafya.life/theuninvestigatedquiz

Well, as the saying goes, that’s the definition of…

I won't say it, but yep, the saying applies even when it comes to our mental & physical health.

This is why I wish every Black woman expert, leader, role model, and game changer within their family, community, profession, and/or business, who is also experiencing persistent mental & physical health-related symptoms, illnesses, and diagnoses, despite doing "everything right," would instead experience...

The life- and health-changing impact of doing their health and healthcare differently, against the status quo,
Through Personalized Investigative Medicine & Psychiatry, to actually get…
💡Personalized answers.
💡Personalized treatment.
💡Which leads to...DIFFERENT RESULTS!

Here's what I know after 16 years in healthcare:

A woman can do "everything right"...The protocol. The "everything looks normal" labs. The medication. The therapy. The tests. The appointments. The supplements, etc, and it still be all the way wrong if it wasn't what her mind, brain, and body actually needed.

This is the epitome of "doing the same thing but expecting different results."
All while time continues to pass and health continues to pay the cost of getting worse.

For the woman who has great responsibilities when it comes to her family, community, profession, businesses, and legacy...she can't afford to keep getting her health and healthcare wrong!

🙋🏾‍♀️Experiencing persistent mental and/or physical health-related symptoms, illnesses, and diagnoses, like exhaustion, depressed mood, mood swings, anxiety, sleepless nights, irritability, chronic pain, brain fog, low motivation, gut health issues...the list goes on!

To top it off, this is all happening despite doing "everything right!"

✔Therapy ✔Medication ✔Appointments ✔ Supplements. Etc...

And here's why...

Traditional insurance-based and driven healthcare evaluates mental health and physical health symptoms separately, and often out of context when it comes to women, and especially Black women.

This often leaves those of us who have great family, community, professional, business, and legacy responsibilities managing the symptoms and the consequences, and paying the cost in the form of our life and health...

When identifying, understanding, and addressing the causes and contributors as a whole would change the entire game!!

And all it takes is doing health and healthcare differently, against the status quo, through a personalized investigation to finally get personalized answers!

So that doing "everything right" is actually doing everything right, because it is right for what your mind, brain, and body actually need!

Our 💡Clarity Assessment Call is our complimentary 20-minute consultation designed to help:
• Identify and understand what may be missing, and
• Determine if our Boutique, Personalized Investigative Medicine & Psychiatry Services are the most aligned next step

This is not therapy or treatment.

It is orientation to mental and physical health and healthcare done differently, against the status quo!

BUT, it is ONLY for the woman:
🙋🏾‍♀️With great responsibilities
🙋🏾‍♀️Who can no longer afford to keep getting their health and healthcare wrong, and
🙋🏾‍♀️READY to DO their health and healthcare differently!

Rather than continuing to pay the cost in time, money, energy, health, and life...

"Is it time for me to do my mental and physical health and healthcare differently?"

That’s the question to answer, because looking good on the outside doesn't mean everything is mentally or physically good on the inside!

We might all know this...logically at least. But who hasn't done the complete opposite of logic (or common sense) in our lives!...IJS

For some of us, though, looking good is actually us playing the part, while knowing full well that something isn't right, mentally and physically, even hoping that ignoring it will make it go away. Seriously, some of us play the part so well that we need to be auditioning for lead roles in motion pictures!

For some of us, looking good is survival, or maybe even our livelihood, because of the life we live, what we represent, or the titles we hold...from executive, to business owner, to judge, to nurse, to physician, to teacher, to wife, to mom, etc...with the "what if they find out" playing in the background.

But we are actually feeling it a bit too much now, mentally, physically, romantically, and financially. So we try to do "everything right."

Go to the doctor, do the therapy, take the medication, get active, push ourselves, etc...

And, for some of us, we are done with only looking good and doing everything right, waiting, and waiting, and waiting for something to finally work, while things are getting worse. We've reached the point where there has to be another way. We need answers. We have to do something different, or else...

The health and life stakes are too high for all of these types, whether we mentally or physically feel them or not!

We invite you to take this quiz and answer the question, “Is it time to do my mental and physical healthcare differently?”

"If you go looking for something, you'll find it." Many of us have heard the saying (or the like).

The context in which we have heard it may vary.
It might even be a bit of a trigger for some.
I get it.

However, the sentiment is the same, all things considered, and in a healthy context, that is.

I'd even venture to say that the desire to keep looking is your intuition. Your Spirit trying to let you know what's up.

Seek, and you shall find, right!

So, there are times when you NEED TO KEEP LOOKING!

Well, the same holds true in healthcare when you've done "everything right."

You've tried the medications.
You've been to the appointments.
You've asked the questions.

And still you know something ain't right!

Here are a few labs that might not have been checked, in the cases when women come to me saying, "I've tried everything." "Nothing is getting better." "I felt worse on that medication." "Treatment resistant." "Everything looks normal," that might explain a lot!

🔥hs-CRP catches inflammation years before it shows up as disease.
🧠COMT explains why stress hits you harder, why hormones feel impossible, why meds don't work the way they should
🥺MTHFR reveals why your body might not be using the nutrients it needs to protect your heart, your brain, and your mood.

There are times when those persistent and negative mental (and physical) health symptoms do have a biological cause rather than or in combination with a psychological one.

It's actually common.
Testable.
And, unfortunately, often completely overlooked, especially for "strong," Black women leaders, role models, and game changers.

You're not imagining it.
You're not being dramatic.
Something very well might be being missed.

And that's exactly what we're going to talk about in my Investigative Health Workshop for Black Women Leaders on Wednesday, May 13 at 7PM EST!

You'll learn the 3 keys to finally getting answers, accurate diagnoses, and effective treatment, even when every doctor has told you "everything looks normal."

Because you deserve more than being made to feel like it is all in your head.

You deserve to feel like yourself again.

🙋🏾‍♀️For the Black woman who's doing all the right things, and still not getting any better...

You've followed your doctor's orders. Tried what feels like every medication.
Showed up to every appointment prepared to give the 'right' answers.
And you still don't feel like yourself, or anywhere close to what you expected.

Here's why (and say it aloud with me)...

"Doing all the right things versus doing all the right things for me.”

Those are two very different things. Which is why the outcomes vary!

Let's make it real right quick.

"Eat less, move more" can be 'right' except for when your brain and stomach no longer communicate via your hunger and fullness hormones. Or when that 10-out-of-10 back pain makes moving the last thing you want to do, or can do!

Wellbutrin. Lexapro. Adderall. Vraylar.Medications that work great...and not so great at the same time, if what's actually needed is Somatic Experiencing Therapy.

Reporting symptoms of distractibility, missed deadlines, low motivation, irritability, poor follow-through, and avoidance, but not getting an ADHD diagnosis. Because you weren't diagnosed with it in childhood. Because you're a whole BOSS. Or because the criteria for the ADHD diagnosis wasn't based on someone who looks like you.

Lab reference ranges, diagnoses, prescriptions for exercise, medication, nutrition, therapy, recommendations, or the things you do in general, aren't wrong in and of themselves.

But without investigation, context, and consideration of culture, environment, nuance, s*x, gender, s*xism, racism, or the outcome you're actually looking for, they aren’t “doing all the right things.”

And that, my friend, is how it's possible to do everything right and still not get better.

This is the difference between healthcare and personalized healthcare.
