It has been an amazing experience working as Director of SKY Schools USA Milwaukee at International Association For Human Values but an amazing opportunity recently came up that I have accepted. I am extremely thankful to Bill Herman for introducing me to breathwork and meditation, to Elan Gepner-Dales for his leadership and trust in me, Susan Ramsundarsingh for teaching me how to keep people at the center of programming, and Matt Nink for showing me how collaborative leadership looks. I also what to thank the rest of the team – that’s too big – to count, let alone give individual shoutouts, for their support over the last six years. I’ve taken on the Community Program Coordinator position at Medical College of Wisconsin – helping to eradicate the cancer in Wisconsin and beyond. My team, department of Community Outreach & Engagement, led by Dr. Charles Rogers and guided by Debra Nevels. My focus will be on men’s health; bringing education, information, and opportunities to reduce cancer disparities in under-resourced and represented communities. I’m excited for this next step and I’m feeling empowered that I’m able to continue learning and growing by serving others.

Men Moving Forward Cohort #7 Week #10 1️⃣ Encouraging each other to “finish harder than we started” on the last set (of push-ups) 2️⃣ An alumn comes back to share his journey to and through plant-based eating #wecandothis === Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among American men (next to skin cancer), and it is a special concern for African Americans. For reasons that aren’t completely understood, African American men are at higher risk than others for prostate cancer and are more likely to be diagnosed younger with more challenging disease. Connecting African American men with health care and cancer screening to help change these disparities is critical. Lifestyle after cancer treatment is another important factor because lifestyle affects treatment side effects, the chance of cancer coming back and other health conditions a man may develop. Studies that help change lifestyles report good results for prostate cancer survivors, but in the past, African American men have had limited involvement. Men Moving Forward supports African American prostate cancer survivors in embracing activity and nutrition that improve body composition and quality of life. The goal is to reduce risk for chronic diseases and prostate cancer coming back. The 16-week program will enroll Milwaukee-area men in phases over the next several years. It is open to African Americans who finished prostate cancer treatment at least six months before joining the study or men who have slow-growing prostate cancer and are being checked regularly by their doctor. Men have interviews and tests to measure strength and body composition before and after the program to see how well the study worked. As part of its research, MCW also conducts interviews with the Men Moving Forward participants. Each person receives $40 for participating in the interviews.

Facebook Memory, May 4th 2018: “one of the most challenging, yet rewarding intentions i’ve accepted - sharing how silence yields awareness - with youth (and adults) who’d rather work and play, blame and complain, and be heard...through words and movements, rather than silence and stillness. i’m convinced that teaching youth and educators the power of their own breath is the most important practice i can do myself...and share with others.” (at Milwaukee, Wisconsin) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdJpSrSOKuY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“Cognitively, psychologically, and morally, moving on to a new stage is a massive feat. It requires courage to let go of old certainties and experiment with a new worldview. For a while, everything can seem uncertain and confused. It might be lonely, too, as sometimes in the process we can lose close relationships with friends and family who can no longer relate to us.” ― #FredericLaloux Via @perennialculturellc newsletter https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc1KqNBOYCE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Much ✌🏾❤️✊🏾 to Kelly and Ayinde for extending, the entire staff for supporting, and ALL of the students for being curious and open to the experiences of #mindfulness 🧘🏾‍♂️ + #mentalperformance 🧠 (not 1x, not 2x, but 3x) during the 2021-22 school year. I hope you’ve learned something new and you’ll remember, even one, drill, exercise, or technique that you can apply in school, sport/other extracurricular activities, or your social life.
