“When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.” ― Audre Lorde

​From the moment I started my own healing journey, I knew I wanted to be a part of the team that helped black women heal, restore and transform themselves.  I feel blessed to be that which extends and produces joy for so many.  Much of my prayers include finding a collective of black women who find their purpose aligned with the same ideals. I am thankful to provide safety and comfort to black bodied  healers, leaders and creatives.

​

I didn't get here easily on no crystal stairs. I got here by failing and crying and growing. I got here by undoing and unlearning and looking at my shadows. Its with immense proudness that I am here to tell you that I am not nice, for most, or your negro.

​

I'm here doing this work because I was called.

​

As the proud owner I believe:

 

Black Womxn deserve to be paid fairly 

Black folx deserve reparations 

Black Trans Lives Matter

Water is Life - Sex Workers deserve reverence -

Mental Health Work is "The Lords" Work -

Self Care is Radical -Scarcity is a myth -

Teachers are Sacred 

We ALL WE Got (and all we gon git.)

I just wanted to lay there and relax and that is exactly what I did. I felt super relaxed and grounded after my session. I highly recommend Sharonda.

Gifted hands is an understatement.

The space is very welcoming. Sharonda does a great job every time. You get your money's wroth out of each session. Would tell them to definitely try the add-ons.

It was transformational!

I have never had such an relaxing, enriching, and life-changing experience! Cocoa Healing Collective is SO much more than physical relief. Sharonda challenged me physically, spiritually, mentally, and emotionally.... Which she knew I needed!

If you’re fortunate and make it into the cool kids club, I think you’ll love it here. 😎 I felt safe, loved, limber, and far less achey afterwards. I’m writing this the day afterwards and I feel rejuvenated.

Ms. Shradona is a true gift - a practitioner of "heart work" and words will never express how thankful I am for her. The concern, care, and compassion she puts into every touch are sacred and life-changing. I have been on my healing journey with her for two years and I would not be standing in my true self - moving towards my true purpose without her light.

I had an amazing and healing experience with Sharonda. I was called to her and she was called to what I needed to feel healed. I feel I have made a new acquaintance and will be going back.
