At Planted to Flourish, we believe in the power of positive energy to transform lives. We have built a platform to empower Black women to be intentional about their lives to GROW.THRIVE.FLOURISH.
I’m Tracey, and I have readjusted my crown and wear it with pride. Now, I’m showing you how to do the same.
I Outgrew My Peeps & Don't Fit In Their Box Anymore...NOW WHAT!. First things first, if you've outgrown some folk in your circle, CONGRATULATIONS!
The only constant in life is change, yet the fear of change is still at an all time high. I mean, really, look at how society reacted to COVID-19 restrictions!
Any who, the trauma healing journey starts with self-awareness and self-awareness usually promotes change.
However, not everyone is going to be happy with the changes in your life as you start to proactively, intentionally & deliberately examine your thoughts, process your emotions & move a bit differently than you have in the past.
I'll share how your transformation aka personal development shows up in both their thoughts and yours using The Model, a tool created by Brooke Castillo, Founder of The Life Coach School.
Additionally, we'll discuss how we ended up in a box in the first place and how to handle folks when they say, "You've Changed".

Happy Juneteenth aka Black Fourth of July, Cel-Liberation Day, Jubilee Day, and Freedom Day!
This is how I imagine the joy, the shock, the relief & even the fear my ancestors had upon hearing this Order!
For those who don't know, Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States.
On June 19,1865, the Union soldiers, led by Major General Gordon Granger, landed at Galveston, Texas, with the news that the war had ended and that the enslaved were now FREE.
Sadly, this news came 2 1/2 years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863. Why? Well, it seems that Texas had a small amount of Union troops to enforce the new Executive Order.
Secondly - and probably the real reason - the news was deliberately withheld by the slave owners to maintain their labor force on the plantations.
With the surrender of General Lee in April of 1865, and the arrival of General Granger’s regiment, the forces were finally strong enough to overcome the resistance.

What are your plans to celebrate Juneteenth this weekend?

Healing is not just about feeling better, sis!
It's about integrating what happened to you in your everyday life.
It's about stopping & removing trauma from your life at the source, the root.
But, it doesn't mean that just because you uproot trauma the abusive learned behaviors & coping mechanisms stops.
Why?
Because unless you STOP everything associated with trauma as you heal yourself, the intergenerational cycle will continue.
Soooo...anything & everything associated with & attached to trauma - the abuse - has to be uprooted, too!
Yes, you are doing the healing work but trauma is STILL STUCK IN YOUR BODY.
The body remembers even if your brain can't!
You may not mean to abuse yourself or others, but because the body remembers and the trauma is stuck in your body, you hurt YOURSELF & OTHERS with your actions & words, consciously & unconsciously.
Healing isn't just about mindset. The body has to be healed, too!
Not sure how?

T.E.A. Talks with Coach Tracey. Trauma is multifaceted and can cause many unexpected changes in our lives.
Two areas it pops up are: sex & intimacy.
In this LIVE, I'm discussing the types of trauma that impede a trauma survivor's ability to enjoy the pleasures of sex & intimacy, what it looks like in relationships with self & others, journal prompts & tools to start the healing process and more!

Get into Your Body!.
Plant Care & Authenticity.
T.E.A. Talks with Coach Tracey. Beautiful,
Today I shared a bit about trauma integration.
What's trauma integration? Trauma integration is when you get to the place in your healing journey where you:
🌟 acknowledge & accept that trauma is part of your lived experience
🌟 have compassion for, give yourself grace & no longer judge yourself when the internal dialogue or triggers pop up
🌟 no longer allow trauma to take priority in & control over your life
Sis, if you're ready to stop allowing your traumatic experience to control your life & take your power back DM me or click the link in my bio to schedule your Discovery Session today!

Many people - Black folk, too - think high-achieving, educated Black women don't sometimes have moments of self-doubt.
WE DO!
There's also the belief:
- That we don't hurt. LIES!
- That we don't have fear. LIES!
- That we don't get tired. LIES!
- That we don't need support. LIES!
WE DO!
And guess what? It's freakin' OK.
FEEL, SIS, FEEL!
Not only is it OK, it's liberating!
ACKNOWLEGE YOUR FEELINGS, SIS!
It's also H-U-M-A-N!
This skewed thinking is the Strong Black Woman schema.
It's deeply rooted in racial & sexist oppression that created a set of beliefs and cultural expectations that required us to have an exorbitant, never-ending amount of resilience, independence, and strength.
Hence, many of us are putting on fronts & masks as we push through anything & everything we encounter when we really need to be confronting some 'ish so that we can start healing and or continue our healing journey.
Yet, I also know that the trauma many of us have experienced it makes it EXTREMELY hard for us to believe that we are good enough, good inherently, worthy.
As you go about this week, I encourage you to recite this affirmation [swipe left] to yourself as often as you need to & remind yourself that you can CHOOSE how you show up for yourself and in the world!

Controlling Everything Has A Downside.
How to Hold Space for Your Healing & Living!. Holding space for yourself is imperative to your healing & integrating your traumatic lived experiences in your life.
Here are 4 tips to help you learn how to hold space for yourself:
1. Give yourself permission to heal!
Uncertainty & the idea of discomfort will try to stop you from doing the word. You have to be 100% committed to growing, healing & thriving!
2. Allow yourself to feel & process your emotions. Don't try to bypass them or think yourself through them.
Get comfortable with being uncomfortable with your emotions so you can have the result you truly want: joy, ease, peace, happiness, flow, abundance, prosperity & more!
3. Stop going into problem solving mode every time something happens.
Some things don't need to be solved, minimized, reframed. They need to be felt & processed!
4. Be honest, vulnerable & transparent with yourself. The worst person you can lie to is yourself!
As Audre Lorde said, “Life is very short. What we have to do must be done in the now" . This goes for your healing, too!

Hey, luvs,
Guess what? 𝗧.𝗘.𝗔. 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘆 starts today...woot, woot!
I created 𝗧.𝗘.𝗔. 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸𝘀 to connect with you regularly as we go deeper into healing while we sip our tea - or coffee, if that's your thang!

During the weekly livestream we'll be focusing on your T.E.A.: 𝗧𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀, 𝗘𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀.
𝗪𝗛𝗬?
Because in order to heal from & integrate trauma into your life so that you can acknowledge it as part of your lived experience, but no longer allow it to control your life, you have to learn how to effectively & efficiently manage your thoughts to get the actions you want based on the emotions you're feeling.
𝗧.𝗘.𝗔. 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸𝘀 are 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗧𝘂𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗮𝘁 10:00 𝗮𝗺 𝗘𝗦𝗧 on my Facebook page, inside my private group, Unapologetically ME!, Instagram & on my YouTube Channel.
