About the Event


Through deeply personal storytelling and cultural insight, Michelle explores how soul food, generational trauma, and emotional eating intersect in the lives of Black women. This transformative experience will help participants:

  • Uncover the historical roots of Black culinary traditions

  • Identify emotional eating triggers shaped by culture and history

  • Reclaim wellness without sacrificing cultural identity

Come for the conversation, stay for the healing, and leave with new tools and a signed copy of a life-changing book.
