Bloom How You Must: A Conversation with Tara Pringle Jefferson
This week, I’m welcoming back a very special guest and friend of the show — Tara Pringle Jefferson, founder of The Self Care Suite and author of the powerful new wellness guide, Bloom How You Must.
Our conversation is a gift. Tara opens up about the holistic journey that brought her to this book — the healing, the lineage, the lessons, and the deep commitment to creating a softer, more sustainable life for Black women. We talk about what it means to truly honor our needs, the role community plays in our survival, and how we can all bloom in the ways life calls us to… even when the path feels uncertain.
This episode is full of reflection, truth-telling, joy, and reverence. Tara has been on the podcast before, and I’m honored to celebrate her again and give her all her flowers.
If you’ve been craving ease, clarity, or a stronger relationship with yourself, this one is for you.
