For far too long, the conversation around wellness has been presented through a single, often narrow lens – think green smoothies, yoga pants, avocado toast, and an idealized size 8. While these elements have their place, they starkly contrast with the core of Culturally Relevant Wellness, failing to represent the diverse experiences and realities of us all.
As African and Cultural Rooted Women, our wellness journeys are layered with history, culture, faith, tradition, and identity. What we eat, how we move, how we rest, and how we express ourselves cannot be separated from the cultures that raised us. And yet, most of the mainstream wellness advice completely ignores this.
But things are shifting.
More and more women are reclaiming their right to wellness — on their terms.
They’re asking:
Why am I being told to eat salads all day when I grew up on nourishing stews, grains, and rich flavours?
Why should I erase my culture to be seen as “fit” or “healthy”?
Why do I have to hustle, grind, and burn out to prove I’m worthy of success?
When we don’t see ourselves reflected in the wellness space, it can feel like we don’t belong. But we do.
Culturally relevant wellness honours where you come from. It embraces your food, your family rhythms, your sacred values, your spiritual practices, your womanhood — all of it. It celebrates your softness and your strength. It understands that you’re not just trying to lose weight or eat better — you’re trying to live a life that feels good, meaningful, and aligned.
This is exactly why I created my coaching programs — to support women like you who are tired of squeezing themselves into boxes that were never made for them.
Whether it’s:
Food that connects to your roots
Movement that feels joyful, not punishing
Space to breathe and be heard without judgment
Or permission to take up space, just as you are
Culturally relevant wellness is here to stay.
And it’s not a trend. It’s a return. A return to wholeness. A return to you.
