In this specific setting the objective of this message is to encourage, urge and motivate the audience to continue to study. learn, and search for knowledge.

“Brianna has a unique understanding of the intricate role spirituality plays in mental health and holistic wellbeing. Her down-to-earth and pragmatic articulation of this symbiotic relationship not only gave her audience tangible takeaways to implement in their everyday lives, but truly addressed and laid the foundation to dismantle the real stigma of mental health in the Black Church. More pressingly, Brianna is able to connect with people in an authentic way that transcends unfamiliarity and takes rest in a deeply empathic and vulnerable place- the place true healing can begin. ”
