I am Lakiesha Mcteer, and this is Serenity's Fountain, home of your holistic health & wellness solutions.
From a young age, I always wanted to aid the elderly within my community. Raised in a predominantly male household, my mother, Brenda, endeavored to instill femininity within me, although it didn't quite go as she'd planned.
My formative years were influenced by the presence of two remarkable women: my mother, Brenda, and my grandmother, Moverene. Both epitomized resilience and determination in their respective pursuits. My mother, while not without her imperfections, exhibited an unwavering commitment to resourcefulness, adeptly navigating life's challenges. Meanwhile, my grandmother, Moverene, showcased an impressive array of talents, from her sartorial craftsmanship to her culinary prowess, instilling in me a deep admiration for her multifaceted abilities.
Observing my grandmother's adeptness and the esteem in which she was held by others, I became increasingly drawn to her endeavors. Recognizing my burgeoning interest, my grandmother graciously imparted her knowledge and skills unto me. Among the various disciplines she shared, the art of gardening and herbalism held particular significance.
Under her guidance, I developed a profound appreciation for the interconnectedness between humanity and the natural world. Her teachings on cultivating and harnessing the therapeutic properties of plants left an indelible mark on my upbringing. Although we initially hesitated to embrace her herbal concoctions, my siblings and I eventually recognized their tangible benefits and willingly incorporated them into our wellness routines.
In hindsight, my grandmother's legacy proved instrumental in shaping my approach to holistic wellness, particularly during my tenure as a caregiver for my ailing mother. Witnessing my mother's health struggles spurred me to delve deeper into traditional remedies and spiritual healing modalities.
Consequently, I resolved to pursue formal education in holistic healing, seeking to augment the foundational principles instilled by my grandmother with contemporary knowledge and expertise. It is through this combination of ancestral wisdom and modern scholarship that I endeavor to honor the legacy of those who have profoundly influenced my journey thus far.
