In this deeply moving episode of Soulful Self-Care Conversations, Pearl welcomes Bill Chini, Executive Director of Mary & Martha House, a nonprofit dedicated to helping women and families overcome domestic violence and homelessness.

Bill—an Air Force veteran with lived experience of abuse, addiction, and homelessness—shares his extraordinary journey from darkness to leadership. His story of survival, resilience, and faith shows how even the most painful paths can lead to a life of purpose and service.

Together, Bill and Pearl unpack the concept of “normal,” discuss the cycles of abuse, and explore how love, respect, and healthy communication can rebuild lives. They also shine light on the life-changing work happening every day at Mary & Martha House and the ripple effect of empowerment programs that help women find stability and self-worth.

This episode is both raw and redemptive—a must-listen for anyone who’s ever questioned their worth, their “normal,” or their ability to start over.

After leaving a 26-year sexless marriage and a high-powered legal career, Xanet helps couples reconnect emotionally and physically by healing the wounds that block true intimacy. She shares her personal story of shame, trauma, disconnection, and rediscovery — and how that journey now fuels her mission to help others build relationships rooted in trust, passion, and safety.

In this deeply insightful episode of Soulful Self-Care Conversations, Pearl sits down with Hanna Kok, a transformational coach, educational kinesiologist, medical intuitive, and creator of the I Thrive app. For over 30 years, Hanna has guided people to heal through the mind-body-spirit connection, teaching how emotional stress and unresolved trauma affect the body—and how the science of forgiveness can restore health and harmony.

From her home in South Africa, Hanna shares the powerful link between emotions, hormones, and healing. She explains how holding grudges can physically inhibit energy flow, why forgiveness is a private act of freedom, and how releasing resentment can improve overall well-being—without medication or surgery.

This conversation will leave you reflecting on what’s really eating at you, how self-forgiveness changes everything, and why letting go may be the healthiest choice you’ll ever make.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode

🌿 The Science of Forgiveness: How emotions like resentment and anger create stress in the body—and how letting go can heal it.
💫 Mind-Body Connection: Why unresolved trauma shows up as physical illness or hormonal imbalance.
🧘‍♀️ Forgiveness as Freedom: Understanding that forgiving isn’t condoning—it’s choosing peace for yourself.
💞 Health Without Hormones: How forgiveness and stress relief can naturally balance the body after menopause or surgery.
💭 Changing Your Inner Dialogue: The role of beliefs and self-talk in shaping our reality.
🌸 Self-Forgiveness: Why forgiving yourself is the first step toward restoring energy and health.
📲 The I Thrive App: How Hanna helps people reprogram limiting beliefs for better health and self-esteem.

Key Quotes

• “Health isn’t only about what you eat—it’s about what’s eating you.” — Hanna Kok
• “Forgiveness is not about condoning others. It’s a private affair—it’s for your peace.” — Hanna Kok
• “We teach what we most need to learn ourselves.” — Hanna Kok
• “When we start taking care of ourselves, people begin treating us differently too.” — Hanna Kok
• “Self-forgiveness is where true healing begins.” — Pearl

Gentle Guidance & Takeaways

• Forgive to Heal: Resentment restricts energy flow through the body; forgiveness restores it.
• Honor Emotions: Feel them, don’t bury them. Suppressed feelings become stress in the body.
• Reprogram Beliefs: Your subconscious determines what you attract—rewrite those stories.
• Let Go of “Shoulds”: Health isn’t about strict diets or perfection; it’s about peace with yourself.
• Forgiveness ≠ Reconciliation: You can forgive without inviting someone back into your life.

In this heartfelt episode of Soulful Self-Care Conversations, Pearl welcomes Kellie Rhymes—a confidence coach and founder of Limitless Mindset Coaching—who helps women navigate hair loss with courage, authenticity, and radical self-acceptance.

Kellie shares her journey from the first pea-sized bald spot to a scarring alopecia diagnosis (CCCA), the shock of being told “there’s nothing you can do,” and the day an adverse salon reaction led to shaving her head—ready or not. With honesty and grace, she walks us through denial, wigs, learning curves, and the turning point: rebuilding confidence from the inside out.

If you or someone you love is facing hair loss—from alopecia, autoimmune issues, chemo, or hormonal shifts—this episode offers practical perspective, the power of community, and a path back to feeling beautiful, worthy, and free.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode

• Kellie’s Origin Story: From late-20s thinning to a scarring alopecia (CCCA) diagnosis common among Black women due to historic styling practices/products.
• When “There’s Nothing To Do” Isn’t the End: Why clinical answers aren’t always emotional answers—and where personal agency begins.
• The Shave Day: An unexpected cut, a closed barbershop, and friends who stayed all day—what true support looks like.
• Wigs, Learning, and Letting Go: Navigating early wig missteps, quality upgrades, and the difference between hiding and choosing.
• Mindset > Mirror: How releasing negative self-talk and fear of others’ opinions created real, embodied confidence.
• Being Seen (Without Hair): Receiving compliments as a bald woman—and learning to believe them.
• The Balcony Test: Curating your support system—who gets a front row seat to your healing?

Powerful Quotes

• “A diagnosis can tell you what’s happening to your hair. It can’t tell you who you are.” — Kellie Rhymes
• “I wasn’t prepared to shave my head—but my friends were prepared to love me through it.” — Kellie Rhymes
• “Hiding and choosing can look the same on the outside. Only you know the difference.” — Pearl
• “Confidence didn’t come from hair. It came from the way I talked to myself.” — Kellie Rhymes

Gentle Guidance & Takeaways

• Feel your feelings: Denial is human. So is grief. Make room for both.
• Get informed—get support: A dermatologist’s input matters; so does advocacy, especially for CCCA and Black women’s hair health.
• Try, test, choose: Wigs, scarves, bald, buzzed—your body, your decision. Choice restores power.
• Rewrite the script: Replace “What will they think?” with “What do I believe about me?”
• Curate your balcony: Surround yourself with people who help you feel safe, seen, and strong.
