This episode explores the pain & beauty of being different. I met Carolyn on IG and we had a good old fashioned phone call which was so connecting and gorgeous that I wanted to have her on my podcast.Carolyn embodies my personal philosophy and belief system: allow your pain to teach you so that you can teach others. We focus on the topic of racial & cultural trauma, however anyone can relate to the experience of "something is wrong with me", but not all of us find freedom from that belief. When we do, skies the limit!Carolyn reminds me that we walk with our ancestors and we carry many lands, stories, and strengths within our bones. When we heal our trauma, our bodies, our hearts, and our minds open so that we can fully receive these gifts of past and present.BIOCarolyn Waiters Carter has served 27 years in the fields ofHuman Services, Non Profit Management, and ProjectManagement, including Decades of experience in Training andDevelopment, Program Design,, Community Economic, andWorkforce Development, Disaster Recovery, HousingRevitalization, Youth Development, and Racial Healing,Reconciliation and Equity.Carolyn is currently using her intuitive ability, passion for healing,personal development, beauty, justice, with her decades ofdiverse experiences and skills,  towards  self mastery coaching, self healing resourcing, ,focused towards supporting, nurturingand facilitating people, communities, and organizations indiscovery and activation of their highest self.Carolyn can be reached by phone at 504-505-5528 or email her at metamorphosis1@bellsouth.net.
