We're excited to introduce our second Speaker, Eliyah Britto, Therapist & Author

Bio:
Eliyah Britto is a wife, therapist, author, content creator and brand ambassador. Eliyah enjoys encouraging women from all aspects of life, especially those recovering from toxic relationships. Her book, The Burden of a Man: A Biblical perspective to generational cycles of rebellion that have been normalized, details her personal experiences with toxicity in relationships, providing her with exceptional empathy to those battling with the unknown of the other side. Eliyah is also passionate about helping those who feel unseen and unheard find their voices in order to tap into their full potential. As a first generation college graduate of both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees, she is determined to continue to knock down barriers not only for herself, but also for those she is called to. Eliyah is affectionately known as β€œLaila,” by her loved ones for the fight that is in her to see the victory on the other side of every mountain. She is known for going against the grain in order to reach those deemed unreachable, and can often be quoted saying β€œyou can’t put me in a box, my God is more unique than that.”

πŸ‘‹πŸ½Good Morning!!!! Yesterday, in honor of I had the privilege of speaking to the members of The What Now Movement. (Link to Video Below)

πŸ‘©πŸΎβ€πŸ«Educating on the importance of Mental Health, Self-Care and Wellness is not only a passion of mine but it is top on the list when sharing life changing gems with others.

🎯My mission is to impress upon every person that they are a priority in life. We sometimes miss the mark in caring for others and doing lots of busy work. Understanding Self-Prioritization means that you learn how to care for you while balancing other areas of importance. It removes guilt, helps you to embrace life and move towards ultimate change.

πŸ“£Yesterday, may have been but every day is a day to focus on your mental health.
