POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Yesterday, I drove up to Newark, NJ had to attend the 2026 Mental Wealth Expo, presented by @cthagod and Power 105.1!

An amazing experience filled with powerful conversations, meaningful connections, and opportunities for personal growth!

I had the opportunity to:

Sit in on “Healing Through Your Nervous System” with @jovianzayne @koyawebb , moderated by @michellewilliams .

Attend an inspiring breakout session with @paris_alexandra on using creativity to jumpstart your wellness journey.

📚 Gift my book, Thoughts of an Anxious Black Man, to @devibrown . Definitely a special moment for me!

Chop it up with **New York Times bestselling author ** @kiergaines and attend his powerful workshop, “The Art of Communication.”

Experience an incredible panel discussion with the legendary ** @Iyanlavanzant ** on “Healing the Heart and Rewiring the Brain.”

There’s something powerful about being surrounded by people who are committed to healing, growing, and helping others do the same.

I walked away inspired, encouraged, and even more motivated to continue the work of breaking the stigma surrounding mental health with @join_thepurposeproject

Incredible experience from beginning to end. I’ll definitely be back next year!

I founded The Purpose Project LLC @join_thepurposeproject and wrote Thoughts of an Anxious Black Man to build community, create safe spaces, and help break the stigma surrounding mental health.

Having experienced anxiety on many levels, I’m grateful that God has transformed my struggles into purpose.

Being honored with the Voice of Recovery - Courageous Voice, and Mental Health Advocate Award is truly humbling. These recognitions remind me that our work is making a meaningful impact and that sharing our stories can inspire healing in others.

The Thoughts of an Anxious Black Man: Conversation Series Finale. 🎙️

What started as a simple idea grew into a movement that we couldn’t be prouder to have spearheaded.

The conversations, the connections, the community, and most importantly, the healing that took place throughout this series are things we’ll never forget. Thank you to everyone who showed up, supported the vision, embraced vulnerability, and trusted us enough to share your stories.

A special thank you to Dr. Gregory Pate for your professionalism as a therapist and, more importantly, your genuine heart for seeing people heal.

Thank you to @thedchaven for opening your doors and giving us a space to create something new, have meaningful conversations, and make an impact in our community.

The Conversation Series may have reached its finale, but this is only the beginning.

Stay tuned for what we have coming next. We’ll see y’all soon. ✌🏽

Welcome to The Purpose Project. A platform created to inspire healing, growth, resilience, and meaningful connection through the power of storytelling and conversation.

Born from the journey of the book Thoughts of an Anxious Black Man by Jaret Lloyd, The Purpose Project is about creating safe spaces where people can have honest conversations about mental health, break through the barriers that keep us silent, and discover purpose through our experiences.

Through books, conversation series, workshops, speaking engagements, and community initiatives, our mission is simple: turn stories into conversations, conversations into healing, and healing into purpose.

This is more than a project. It’s a movement toward becoming healthier, stronger, and more intentional—together.

Welcome to The Purpose Project. Your story has purpose.
