I’m Patrice C. Graham
And for so long I defined myself by my resume and accomplishments.
That tells you NOTHING about me, that could describe a lot of very different people. Partially because I didn’t know who I was, which was a major part of my issues. I was so caught up in trying to be what my parents wanted, and defying society's stereotypes of a Black woman. I checked off all the things that you “should” do. I went to a good school, got a good job, purchased a home and tried to find a life partner...
Speaking of trying to find a life partner, do you know what prompted me to find myself? A bad breakup (aren’t breakups the worst ugh)!
I recognized the pattern of dating people that were not at all what I was looking for.
And I kept ending up attached and disappointed. The partners were (very) different but the story remained the same. We were great at first, I felt like a princess and then every little thing they did drove me CRAZY. So what was I doing wrong? I looked for answers in yoga classes, therapy, meditating and any self-help book that I could get my hands on.
Through lots of work I found out that I’m a people pleasing, perfectionist, anxiety fueled, workaholic, highly sensitive empath… and healer. While there are a lot of negative connotations around these, I also found power in knowing. Power in understanding myself better, which helped me to love myself more.
(Spoiler alert: loving yourself is the answer)
So let’s start again with me telling you who I am. My name is Patrice and I am positively passionate about life, adventures and self-development. I’m a healer, a leader, a hype-woman, a mentor, a business owner, and a master manifester. I’m quirky, energetic, bubbly, loyal and I’ve never met a stranger.
I am my ancestor’s wildest dreams and I am uniquely me.
I’m an encourager, a motivator, a fear-smashing, confidence building, well-rested visionary. I am passionate about helping folks remember their breath and power. I do this by leading yoga, promoting rest and serving as a mentor 1:1 and in small groups.
I am constantly curious about the present moment to find what I need, my unique voice/expression, and to identify strategies to help me protect and harness my energy and live my best life (both personally and in business) and I love helping others to find this same exploration.
Let’s examine your life and identify to identify thoughts, beliefs and habits that are blocking you from living the life you dream of. Let’s identify your fear, self-doubt, energy drainers, weaknesses that we can work through to set you on the path to more.
