We’re pausing our socials in July for Minority Mental Health Month. Step outside, breathe deep, & ask: How can I step away to step more fully into myself? We’ll see you in August—rested, renewed, & ready. 💙

Family secrets kill. DNA may load the gun, but silence pulls the trigger. At #MadeInNC, we broke the silence on CRC in Black communities—because what we don’t talk about keeps taking us. #BlackHealthJustice #EndMedicalSilence #CRCAwareness More: www.linkedin.com/posts/crroge...

We don’t always talk about how food can be medicine, especially in Black families. This post is a reminder that healing starts at home — with love, knowledge, & what we put on our plate. 🙌🏾🥬🫐

MYTHS VS FACTS 🎉 1. CRC only impacts older adults? False! It can affect anyone, even under 50. 2. CRC only comes from a bad diet? Nope! Family history matters too. 3. Colonoscopies are too painful? Hardly! They're worth the effort. #CRCequity #EarlyDetection

Happy #DressInBlueDay! I wear blue today for my sweet husband, Wes, a survivor diagnosed in 2019 at age 41. It’s not hyperbole: colon cancer screenings save lives. Most insurances will cover them starting at age 45. Know the signs, but also, get screened as soon as you are able to, regardless. 💙
I’m dressed in blue for National Dress In Blue Day, promoting colon cancer awareness.
