Tashira Halyard is as fashionable as she is fearless. As an attorney, racial equity consultant, breast cancer survivor, and founder of the wildly popular blog and Instagram handle, Politics & Fashion, Tashira brings her audience inside her closet — and her world — nearly every day of the week.Tashira brings her passion for equity and her fierce personal style everywhere she goes, but her path to success wasn’t paved in diamonds. In this episode, Tashira reveals how childhood trauma, her diagnosis of breast cancer, and a toxic relationship with work changed her, physically and emotionally, and how these painful experiences helped clarify her commitment to living boldly and unapologetically. She is the author of Fight for Our Girls, a TV series that explores the intersection of race, gender, and trauma in the lives of Black girls. She also created the “The 21-Day Happiness Project,” a toolkit to foster self-awareness and self-care, and, most recently, a podcast called JustUs where she riffs with her BFF Margo about everything from racial justice to fashion runways. Her goal? Empowering other women to leverage their self-worth for social progress. Join Dr. McBride every Monday for a new episode of Beyond the Prescription.
