This conversation is one that I manifested even before I launched Be Well, Sis! Rachel Cargle is a writer, entrepreneur, philanthropic innovator, and founder of The Loveland Foundation, Inc., founded in 2018, which offers free access to mental health care through the Therapy Fund for Black women and girls. Rachel Cargle’s A RENAISSANCE OF OUR OWN: A Memoir & Manifesto on Reimagining is a crucial addition to the antiracist conversation and comes from a place of deep personal discovery. There are breaking points in all our lives when we realize that the way things have been done before no longer serve us, be it the way we approach our relationships, our belief systems, our work, our education, even our rest. For Rachel Cargle, reimagining—the act of creating in our minds that which does not exist but that we believe can and should—has been a lifelong process. Reimagining served as the most powerful catalyst for Cargle’s personal transformation from a small-town Christian wife to an incisive queer feminist voice of a generation. Our conversation dives into honing our highest values and redefining success, exploring platonic romance, have a deep relationship with all versions of ourselves, self-forgiveness, and much more!

ADHD is not a male disorder, but men and boys are diagnosed far more commonly than women and girls. Let's talk about it.    Articles about ADHD in women: Why ADHD in Women is Routinely Dismissed, Misdiagnosed, and Treated Inadequately ADHD in Women    Guest Feature: Taylor turned being bad at self-care—and being firmly convinced of every human’s potential—into a career. She’s the founder of media company Inner Workout, and the author of a book by the same name. Recently named one of Fortune’s 10 Innovators Shaping the Future of Health, Taylor is tired of aspirational 'wellness as usual.' In fact, the first line of her book, Inner Workout, reads, "This is not an aspirational wellness book." Instead, Inner Workout offers a practical and accessible approach to self-care that meets you where you're at. Her Take Care assessment, which measures well-being across five dimensions, has been taken by thousands of people across the globe. Taylor’s mission is not to change who you are; but rather to strengthen your connection to the wisdom you already have within.
