    Cheron K. Griffin

    Ramelle Carter Blog is ecstatic over a phone chat with Author, Freedom Coach, Lifestyle Hacker, Dating Consultant, and a Divorce Guru, Cheron K. Griffin.  Griffin’s latest accomplishment is a book called, I See You, Igniting Hope and Preventing Suicide. I See You, was written and inspired by the help of emojis.  The book provides comfort for people feeling lonely, different, or broken-hearted. The premise of the book is “I see you and you are loved.”  “I SEE YOU” sole campaign purpose is to spread happiness.

    Here is the link to the book: https://www.amazon.com/SEE-YOU-Igniting-Preventing-Suicide/dp/0985723335/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?keywords=i+see+you%3A+igniting+hope+and+preventing+suicide&qid=1566909249&s=gateway&sr=8-4

    Ramelle:  Please briefly explain what prompted you to write your new book?

    Cheron: God, also my amazing spirit,  guided me to write this book, also the reason why I uses emojis, the who book process leads me to let others have a dialogue.

    Ramelle: You know the whole subject of suicide hits home with me. When my daughter was a student at North Hollywood High school; her classmate committed suicide. My daughter began to shut down.  Above all, I talked with her, and I was available. Futhermore, I am very aware of the effects of suicide.

     

    Ramelle: With tragedies of suicide, especially with teens; What are some signs that you and other certified professionals has found to be a trigger factor?

    Cheron: Certainly there is no one who can point out easily a trigger, I mean there are some people who just say or even start getting affairs in order, simple as that.

     

    Ramelle: Can you give my readers insight on your Grow A Girl Network?

    Cheron: Grow a Girl Network, is an extension of the book, I See You, its actually in a rebranding stage but, essentially I want this to encourage girls, ladies, women to have awesome self-esteem, dream big and aim high.

     

     

    The magic of reading and joy of books is a wonderful exploration. Consequently, Cheron K. Griffin took the time to share it with me. Therefore in a ambiguous way,  we all owe gratitiude to the power of knowledge and sharing. Let me take this time to call this the share corner. The share corner is where I interview a person who has taken the time to forge ahead with all or even some complications that life brings forward. The disastrous of even more memories will come to pass and bottle up a tasty treat of joy.

     

    Finally, I want to take this time to remember, Xavier William Patterson, who will always be remembered in my daughter’s heart.

  • Ladies, Love Your Body to the Bones

    I, along with the Susan G. Komen Foundation would like to end Breast Cancer. Therefore, this makes me determined to get the word out about anything and everything that will help women live healthy lifestyles or at least help in the cause. Let’s all start by imposing some information that has been handed to me by the Susan G. Komen Foundation. As a woman of color, the Know Your Girls campaign is just one cause that speaks volumes to why more women should get involved. Please visit the Know Your Girls website, click here https://ww5.komen.org

    In August of 2017, I went for my regular breast cancer screening since age 40, yes I turned 40 in 2011; everything went smooth, then a few days later I got a call. The test showed something that did not look good; I assured myself it was nothing because I touch myself (Ode to a song) quite often since finding out I have dense breasts, and sure enough the test results were negative.

    One of the first steps to combat breast cancer is to do self-examinations or annual check-ups by your doctor. I see my physician of three years now, Dr. Lina Shammas, who teaches me to take extra precaution for anything hard or things abnormal to the touch on my girls/breasts/boobs paying homage to the

    Know Your Girls initiative of Susan G. Komen Foundation

    Sweet Black History Month, We Salute Our Ancestors

    Here are five Quotes from Some of Our Great Family of Ancestors

    “I’m for truth, no matter who tells it. I’m for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I’m a human being, first and foremost, and as such I’m for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.”
    ― Malcolm X

    I think slavery is the next thing to hell. If a person would send another into bondage, he would, it appears to me, be bad enough to send him into hell if he could. _Harriet Tubman

     

    “Forgiveness is not an occasional act, it is a constant attitude.”
    ― Martin Luther King Jr.

    I never hurt nobody but myself and that’s nobody’s business but my own.__Billie Holiday

     

    “I’m starting with the man in the mirror,
    I’m asking him to change his ways;
    And no message could have been any clearer,
    If you wanna make the world a better place,
    Take a look at yourself, and then make a change!”
    ― Michael Jackson
