Oh to be carried❣️ We all need those moments and connections that allow us to fall back and be held. To not have to do, to be, to plan, to fix, or to gather…..to be on the other side of just showing up while all is still maintained and afloat!

Those are the moments and connections I hold most sacred. The ones that request for me to rest and/or have joy and peace with that being the only demand of me on the agenda! I seek moments to be carried. At 25 it became a sudden unexplainable to do and at 34 I went skydiving, not because I’m by any means a risk taker, because I needed a moment to free fall and be carried. I had an experience a couple years back and a few more waiting in cue at a float spa because again I desired to be safely tucked away and carried. And last night I enjoyed immersive sound healing because how beautiful it was to be vibrationally grounded while being carried afloat under the sunset and stars and happenings of the city below us.

And I LOVED seeing the majority of attendees were black women (some we knew and surprisingly encountered) and the rest a community of collective respite. Lord knows ain’t nothing more powerful and needed as a radical act of self care as when black women claim their breath, body, and rest!🤎

One of my fellow colleagues and sister friends Christine joined and as therapists who’s day in and day out are being containers for others’ pain, energy, and life narratives ALONG with our own (because life doesn’t give out escape passes to anyone ,) I’m so glad we allowed ourselves and it ALL for this moment to be carried away❣️

One of the most vulnerable things you hold space for as a family therapist, especially when you have several family members bringing their experience of this commonly held identity titled Family, is each member wants to be seen in their connection and uniqueness. Your family tree, your branch, and what blossoms and dies from it is pivotal to our full picture. We all desire to be seen and understood in our fullness. And when all those stories are told and shared in family therapy, people often have to manage less pretty, less simplistic, less idealistic views of the operation of their family for a more full range of complicated truths that takes more tender, aware, and proactive approaches to collectively heal and create inclusive, healthy family dynamics.

Well the 4th of July now carries a more complex relationship to my identity as a Black American, because that is the connection and uniqueness of my big picture identity. Though I know this day of celebration of freedom did not include my enslaved ancestors, I do know those same ancestors are woven into the fabric of the building of this nation and every generation after them built upon the labor, fight, and prayers to gain freedoms they were not to see in their lifetime yet be honored through the lives of their descendants. So that part of me still has a connection to this day because I never want to dismiss that America will always be THEIR America because what history tries to deny and rewrite my heart and knowing will NEVER. So though America has recently regressed some in it’s 250 years of existence on this day, when you call her name I still proudly answer because my ancestors created a home out of a nightmare and I am a proud inheritor of their resilience, heart, hope, faith, and ongoing contribution to make this nation’s promises an operation and not just words of declaration.

May your 4th of July be whatever you need it to be….because we live in a country where it can be just that❣️

*I’m so glad I captured Lady Liberty in the sunset this January 2026. I needed to have a moment to touch upon the mesmerizing feeling of being an American.*

It’s been a while since I experienced the FIRSTS of Parental Loss, but the heart quickly knows and teleports to “I’ve been here before.” But today’s heart’s milestone is THE FIRST Father’s Day and the ache is real!

I’m grateful because my heart is full of “I love you” and “you are my answered prayer” deposits from my Dad❣️ But as seen on these captures my Dad made MANLY an actionable standard in my world! All of my adult life, my Dad would call me when it rains to ask “are you going to work?” I would be SO annoyed and flippantly respond, “I don’t get rain excuses for my bills Dad!” One day in my mid 30’s he responded, I love that you take care of yourself and do it well. It’s the reason when I close my eyes forever, I will be at peace knowing you will always keep your best in mind. That’s a father’s dream for his daughter. HOWEVER, you are an adult but you will always be MY CHILD, and as long as I’m your Dad on this earth, your safety has no age limit to me AND I always want to know I’m still needed by you in some capacity. THAT Day I stopped being flippant and realized how GRATEFUL I was that the regular occurrences in life made my Dad instantly think “let me check on, get to, or simply hear my Daughter’s voice.”

Thank you Dad for being what I consider the real definition of Girl Dad! It wasn’t in simply having and loving a daughter. It was in all our vulnerable talks across my life where you listened to me say, “I see me in the treatment, thoughts, and respect of all women.” And letting my evolution from girlhood to womanhood create growing pains, enlightenment, and evolution in you as a man.

Happy Heavenly Father’s Day Daddy❣️ I must admit it’s weird here without you, but I know you hover over me as close as your guardian angel wings allow you to. I feel you often and my request is Mom and You make it clear it’s y’all until y’all greet me over and up in God’s time and will!🙏🏾

I Love You Daddy❣️

As a Family Therapist awareness, insight, and healing derives from who you are and how you see that in who you are capable of! Before Juneteenth became widely known and nationally celebrated, US Texans celebrated US because OUR story held a significant piece to the larger history. We did it without permission because OUR story ALWAYS MATTERED❣️

Juneteenth has been an all my life and family celebration as a Texas born and raised girl! Today I celebrated with a few LineSISTERS learning the ancestral roots grounded in Houston History. The Heritage Society Foundation Museum and Tours is a hidden gem that fights and honors the preservation of history against the erasure! Look it up, check it out, and share❣️ We got to meet and greet Ms. Martha Yates (a descendant of Jack Yates.) Then we went to the FIRST park established in Houston, TX, Emancipation Park, to join in with community! 🖤💛❤️🤍💙

Happy Juneteenth Y’all❣️

The FIRST thing my clients understand about me is my ultimate goal, beyond what brought them to me, is to nurture them to be good consumers of mental health in their time with me and beyond!

This long term client of has been working on trying to get her father to attend family therapy for a while contacted me to see if I had the capacity to hold space her father and her due to the recent loss of my father. Even though I know she was being considerate of me, that good consumer of mental health modeling, made me SO PROUD. 1.) I know that wellness for herself now sets a new standard for her connections that’s non negotiable 2.) The inquiring of my capacity also meant ensuring her father and her QUALITY of service for their needs should not be compromised or clouded by any means!

I will always SAFEGUARD my profession and purpose , and I’m ok with the commitment by egos and willful ignorance that consider it gate keeping, because value extends beyond the desperation of exposure.

In my therapist infancy my clinical supervisor quite frankly told me, “Shameitra, you will never be able to get someone to a level of healthy you have yet obtained. Which is why your most important duty in the healing space is to take care of YOU!”

If your clout overcasts your continuum of good character and care, you respectfully don’t belong here in your educational decorum before and after your name and you MOST definitely don’t as a renegade, wounded healer with adjacent identifiers. For those of us Vets who only had our presence along with our credentials, as proof that mental and emotional wellness belonged to us ALL, we worked too hard for integrity and dignity to be lost where popularity and accessibility has been gained. I am a clinical supervisor in hopes of shaping the next generation of therapists to keep moving us forward and safeguarding the privilege they have inherited❣️

P.S. Thank you Daddy for being my co-therapist with this Father! He held so much extrinsic and intrinsic traits of you. When I gave some self disclosure that I’m the daughter of a father who…..he got to then show up in his wholeness! Family Therapy is torch passing healing in action❣️Proud LMFT-S‼️

Grief Files: There are certain days you just know you will have to brace for (and because I’m unfortunately a vet to parental loss my verbiage is actually more like what you have to be attentive to your needs for.) But also you get to be as raw in emotions and practice the first calendar year around as needed. The juxtaposition I sit in doing this for 18 years with my Mom and 7 months in with my Dad.

Memorial Day was overlooked in my scheduling of clients (which probably was some subconscious move of avoidance,) but when it was brought to my attention the heaviness hit my heart! This Memorial Day is the first that my Dad’s veteran service is recognized on THIS day and no longer my Veteran’s Day post and in the most simplistic words: I DON’T LIKE IT!!

And that is what makes grief the company that keeps you. You are not just grieving your loved one, you are grieving all aspects of life that held their presence and honor. Grief begets Grief.

When grief meets you on both sides of the couch….

Thank you Daddy for your service to this country, especially during your lifetime where this country wasn’t always in servitude of you, and your service of my heart❣️

Today will always mark the beginning of our love story Mommy❣️

Your Labor of Love and Mother’s Day Gift will be my best arrival and favorite meet and greet EVER❣️

Katherine’s Daughter is my most cherished identifier of my lifetime❣️

Right when I was having a missing and longing for you fit in thinking of yet another Mother’s Day without you….i look up to zone in on you being you in how you continue to Mother from Heaven❣️

Happy Mother’s Day to My Mommy who didn’t make Motherhood seem easy or perfect, however made Motherhood feel like the softest place for me to land and the bedrock from which I stand and continue to expand. I love the woman I am because of the woman you were Mommy❣️

May 2nd was The 2nd Annual Love, Lessons, and Legacy Mother’s Day Brunch and My Mom and My Love Story is ALWAYS the undercurrent because it was birthed because of US❣️

However, My Dad was heavy on my heart yesterday and very present because May 2nd, 2025 marked my last capture of My Birthday celebration with him! Last year we did an early birthday lunch because My actual Birthday was going to be The Inaugural Love, Lessons, & Legacy and the cognitive side effect of losing my Mom on the younger end of life, became counting ALL the birthdays of My Dad’s and mine I got to continue to have him! When his vascular dementia started from his 2019 series of strokes, I began counting The Right Side Up moments where I would still get his birthday calls and remembrance of My Birthday (He was also very proud that he got the little girl he prayed on Mother’s Day.) This lunch he was in disbelief that His BABY was about to be 45 years old and “getting up there”….but also watch your mouth Daddy!

My actual birthday weekend and birthday my Dad’s care took a dramatic turn so I didn’t get my Birthday call last year. My heart felt like it started to grieve the loss of that gift of Daddy’s Birthday well wishes in that moment.)

So this capture will forever serve as the last one of My Daddy being mesmerized by his creation and contribution to this woman who in his eyes will forever be His (The) Baby for her Birthday. This capture will forever symbolize this Daughter’s Final Countdown….but Thank GOD for 45 years of me seeing and being told how you marvel that I came from you Daddy❣️🙏🏾

Lonnie Jr. LOVED me So and I walk in wholeness because of it! Love, Lessons, & Legacy (Dads & Daughters’ Father Day Edition) unfolding soon!🙏🏾

Always in the purpose driven making but now the love undercurrent that moves it forward❣️

An Ode to May 2nd…..💚

The 2nd Annual Love, Lessons, & Legacy was a true HEART PRODUCTION ❣️ Of course the main characters were my Heavenly Bound Mothers and Earthly Bound Daughters that came in honor and celebration. HOWEVER My Care Team that made all my intricate and intimate details come true in the creativity, culinary, festive, spiritual, aesthetic, and capture was the village around the community that also kept my main thing the main thing! That Love, Lessons, and Legacy is more than a brunch: it’s respected community anchored in sacred, healing fellowship of love and honor!🙏🏾 More greatness to come in highlighting my Aesthetic Coordinator, MUA, Caterer, Photographer, Digital Production Team, My Gift Curators, Mixologist & Charcuterie Extraordinaire, and My Psalmist but my heart needed to get out the immediate gratitude poured in and still spilling out❣️

It’s a wrap❣️ 2nd Annual Love, Lessons, & Legacy Mother’s Day is now in the history of the beautiful evolving and growing community of Daughters gathering to love on and be loved on by one another because of and through our Guardian Angel Mothers!
