In this two part conversation, I talk with Tamela Julia Gordon, a writer and editor from New York. Tamela Julia Gordon’s book, Hood Wellness: Tales of Communal Care from People Who Drowned on Dry Land has been met with critical acclaim, earning a starred Kirkus Review. Tamela’s currently working on her second book and splitting her time between Harlem and Miami.
Tamela and I explore layers centered on Community Care, Authenticity and staying rooted in the truth of your work, and honoring your community as well as your capacity as we navigate these aspects. We also talk about the need to be within community with those who see, hear, and honor us.
