Welcome, Unconventional Healers.

I'm Dr. Tafona Ervin and I'm starting this podcast because being made to believe that our pain is inconvenient, our perspective unpolished, or our identity too complicated for the rooms we occupy creates an invisible silence. It isolates us. It wears us down.

But something liberating happens when we begin to tell the truth—not just to others, but to ourselves. We begin to exhale.

We begin to release all that we’ve been holding, transforming the hidden shame of silence into a powerful sound that starts to fuel our power.

So, when I acknowledge and share my story, I’m not asking for validation. I’m reclaiming a truth that only I can speak. I am giving myself permission to feel the feels and let go of the speculated judgement of me just trying to evolve into the best version of me.

When I profess with my tongue all of the trauma that has been dormant within me, I begin to find a peace that I have never experienced.

This is my release.
