This is one of the most important and meaningful conversations that I’ve had on Clean Beauty Scene podcast. Black women and mothers experience health crises at rates 2 – 3 times that of other races. St. Louis based NBC-Health and Wellness Coach Marquita Ell, founder of Ell’s Wellness, has been on a mission to heal since 2007. She was drawn to a deepened understanding of how family history and lifestyle choices impact overall health after her grandmother’s death. In this episode, she shares helpful advice on how to prioritize managing your stress as it enhances every aspect of your health.
Marquita gives us powerful insights into how the race and gender-related complexities of Black womanhood are continuing to plague communities. We discuss the unique experiences of Black people and marginalized groups who are at a disadvantage within the healthcare system, the enormous problem of separation of culture and what we need to do to dismantle the systems. As Marquita explains, more people who are unaffected need to care enough to want change and take action.
The way Marquita explained how recognizing that it’s about the system is seriously the most helpful and clear description that I have ever heard. When we don’t take it personally or make it about us we can see the issue through a clear lens. Marquita’s message really landed with me, I bet it will for you too.
