Embodied Jisms

A very candid conversation about mental health, wellness and much more!

Join me for a very candid conversation between myself and Shawn Peppers, a lovely woman I met as a teen when I was struggling mentally and emotionally and ended up hospitalized.

This piece is all about depth! When we first meet people, we don’t know much about each other, but time and connection has a way of helping us cultivate deeper, more meaningful relationships!

This piece is dedicated to Black History! All the love 365

This episode is a littler more than poetry! I touch on my experience with anxiety! It’s time to speak up and fight back!

We as women often think we’re being strong when we overdo it, push ourselves and fail to care for ourselves! This is not strength at all! It’s actually detrimental to our wellbeing. How can we care for our families properly if we’re completely beat down! It’s time we learn to lean more on God and less on ourselves

I sat down with Lakeisha and had a good olé conversation about life! There is so much more to come

This episode is just centered around the importance of being a gentleman in order to truly bring out the gentle in a woman!

I’m just talking about my need for balance and learning not to overload my plate.

Celebrating woman is essential! We know that a woman’s soul is deeply rooted in her responsibility to the earth! She deserves to be honored! God did his thing with her.

Just wanted to share with you all what’s to come. Be on the look out featured poets and real life conversation! It’s gonna be so dope!

This piece is a bit sensual but it’s the truth! Let’s give more and receive more too!

I’m sure we all wish something could be different or better in our lives!

Falling ain’t always bad! Sometimes it’s exactly what we want.

This piece is about childr hood trauma and the impact it has on your life!

This is an I AM poem! Who are you? Take some time to think about it and then write about it!

This is my first short read from my new book Embodied. Embodied is available for purchase on Amazon. #GetEmbodied. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CSGG81G/ref=tsm_1_tp_tc

In this chapter of Embodied, Lyric is introduced. She’s writing a book about her childhood, and getting married to the man of her dreams. But her past keeps coming up in the midst.

This peace is simply to let the world know that women are human! We are not supernatural and we deserve to be treated like queens. latoyasmiter.com

This poem expresses how hard it is to let go of the past and past traumas. It’s tough but it’s not impossible!

This piece is inspired by my new book Embodied! My book release date is 10/30 which is also my 34th birthday! I hope to inspire women and girls all over the world in some way! Get Embodied!

This is for my beautiful daughter! You mean the world to me! Love you so much! Mommy~

I sat thinking about this. Thinking about my male students. Thinking about how we view girls versus boys! Thinking about how boys work our nerves because they play too much, have tons of energy etc and how this stuff pushes them away from education and into the streets! How those same parents and loved ones are so in love when these boys are born but then that love and support seems to dwindle! Th...

The history of America is one that has been doused in racism & intentional segregation! It is led to much pain & poverty & created such a divide amongst people! Being a black woman in America ain’t easy, but I am strong! My people are strong! We overcome.

There is so much hate in the world! The current state of the world has black people angry and hurt! Let’s end the war on our people!
