Veteran. Minority. Entrepreneur.

I’m honored to be part of the 2026 Minority Veterans Emerging Leaders Cohort—a program that is equipping veteran entrepreneurs with the tools, mentorship, and community to build thriving businesses.

As a veteran, minority business owner, and mental health professional, I know firsthand that building a business takes more than passion. It takes strategy, leadership, resilience, and a network of people who genuinely want to see you succeed.

If you’re a veteran and a minority entrepreneur looking to:
✅ Grow your business
✅ Strengthen your leadership skills
✅ Connect with mentors and like-minded entrepreneurs
✅ Learn practical business strategies
✅ Expand your network and opportunities

I highly encourage you to look into this program.

The saying on my tumbler says it best:
“We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.”

That message reminds me that we don’t have to wait for opportunities—we can create them together.

Thank you to Minority Veterans of America for investing in veteran entrepreneurs and creating spaces where our voices, experiences, and businesses can thrive.

If you’re thinking about applying or want to learn more about the experience, feel free to reach out. I’d be happy to share what I’ve learned so far.

⚠️ Never judge a book by its cover.

While roaming the streets of Panama City, we met Mr. Conrad Grant, a 91-year-old Panamanian-Jamaican man who helped us find coffee and ended up giving us a three-hour personal tour.

He shared Panama’s history, showed us hidden gems, made sure we were safe, and never asked us for a dime. Of course, we made sure to take care of him.

If you see Mr. Conrad Grant in Panama City, please show him some love. 🇵🇦❤️

Today, as we celebrate Women Veterans Day, I am incredibly honored to have been inducted as a Southern Maryland Women Veterans Ambassador through the Women Veterans Interactive Program (WVIP) and appointed by Governor Wes Moore.

As I reflect on this moment, I am reminded that whatever I put my mind to, it happens. Nothing but God. His grace, favor, and guidance have opened doors and created opportunities I could have never imagined.

I am grateful for the opportunity to continue serving, advocating, and uplifting fellow women veterans. This recognition is not just about me—it is about the strength, resilience, and contributions of women veterans everywhere.

Happy Women Veterans Day to all my Bravo Strong women veterans! Thank you for your service, sacrifice, and dedication. 🇺🇸💜

💚 Mental Health Matters 💚

From your favorite Veteran Therapist 🇺🇸💚

As a veteran, counselor, wife, mother, and someone who has walked through my own challenges, I want to remind you of something important:

✨ It is okay to not be okay.
✨ It is okay to ask for help.
✨ It is okay to take a break.
✨ It is okay to prioritize yourself.

Too often, we wear our strength like armor and convince ourselves that we have to carry everything alone. But true strength isn’t found in suffering in silence—it’s found in recognizing when you need support and giving yourself permission to receive it.

Mental health affects how we think, feel, connect with others, and show up in our daily lives. Just as we take care of our physical health, we must also care for our emotional and mental well-being.

Today, I encourage you to:
💚 Check in with yourself.
💚 Reach out to someone you trust.
💚 Practice self-care without guilt.
💚 Give yourself grace.
💚 Remember that healing is a journey, not a destination.

You are worthy of peace.
You are worthy of healing.
You are worthy of support.

And if no one has told you today—I am proud of you for continuing to show up.

With love,
Your Favorite Veteran Therapist 💚🇺🇸

If you know someone who is currently fighting cancer and experiencing financial hardship, there may be grant support available to help.

I recently assisted a client with applying for a grant, and she has been approved and is now receiving support.

One opportunity is through The Cancer Cartel. You can learn more and sign up here:
https://cancercartel.org/new-page-20

🗓 Next application opening: May 1 at 9:00 AM PST

Please note: in order to apply, the individual must be connected with a licensed professional, such as a social worker or therapist, who can assist with the application process.

If you know someone who may benefit, please have them sign up as soon as the application opens. I am also available to support with fulfilling the mental health professional requirement and to help guide them through the process.

Feel free to share this with anyone who may need it 💜 by @luluhall80

Life gets busy. Work, responsibilities, family, stress… it all piles up. But in the middle of all that, one thing we cannot afford to neglect is our friendships.

Friendship dates are not a luxury — they are a necessity. 💛

They are the moments where you get to laugh freely, be your authentic self, vent without judgment, and feel seen and supported. They remind you that you are not alone in this journey. That someone gets you.

Too often, we say “we need to link up” and never make it happen. But connection requires intention.

So this is your reminder:
📅 Schedule the date
📞 Make the call
💬 Send the text
❤️ Show up

Protect your friendships the same way you protect your responsibilities.

Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about getting through life — it’s about having people to do life with.

Tag your friend and set a date today. 💫 Keela Simmons taken in Arlington, Virginia by @luluhall80

Had such a beautiful time tulip picking at Montpelier Farms 🌷✨
Nothing like fresh air, colorful blooms, and a little peace in the petals 💕
Spring really showed out today!

Next time I’m definitely bringing my blanket so I can sit down—whew, that walking had me tired 😅
