Breed Life, Breathe Love: Breaking Free from Societal Norms Surrounding Motherhood, Family, and Love. (paperback 217 pages)
For centuries, Black women have been expected to bear the brunt of parenting. They have been expected to be strong—to do this, that, and the other—while taking care of themselves and everyone else.
But what happens when we can’t?
Join Chelsea Glover-Jordan as she shatters the myth and helps to perpetuate the narrative that must assist in the de-stigmatization of it being okay to not always be okay. This “un” watered-down story of Breed Life, Breathe Love attests to the strength of Black women, transgenerational trauma, and how we often work so hard to simply be okay out of fear of being anything but.
When it’s not okay to not be okay, what do you do? Where do you go?
In Breed Life, Breathe Love follow Chelsea inside her own personal experiences as she speaks to the stigma of backlash Black women endure in society, community, and even our homes when we choose not to pick up more than we should carry. Her story is one of a woman loved, a woman scorned, a woman broken, and a mother healed. Also, take advantage of the journal entries in the appendices that help you reflect on your own motherhood experiences
