✨ Season 3 continues! ✨ We’re gathering for the next EmpowerMENt Talks on: 🗓 Saturday, October 17, 2026 ⏰ 2:00–4:30 PM 📍 Valdez-Perry Library (4690 Vine St, Denver, CO 80216) This month’s EmpowerMENt Talk is inspired by the powerful work of Dr. Bruce D. Perry & Oprah Winfrey: 🤎 What Happened to You? 🤎 What if, instead of asking, “What’s wrong with me?” we learned to ask, “What happened to me?” This conversation invites us to explore how our experiences—especially those from childhood and significant relationships—can shape the ways we see ourselves, respond to the world, build relationships, manage emotions, protect ourselves, and make sense of who we are today. Together, we’ll explore how adversity, trauma, attachment, connection, resilience, and our environments can influence the patterns we carry into adulthood. We’ll create space to consider: 🧠 How have my experiences shaped the way I respond to stress and conflict? 🤎 What did I learn about safety, trust, vulnerability, and connection? 🪞 What parts of myself developed as ways of adapting or surviving? 🌱 How might understanding my story create more compassion for myself and others? 🔄 What patterns might I want to understand, heal, or change? This isn’t about labeling ourselves by our past or using our experiences as excuses. It’s about developing a deeper understanding of how our stories have shaped us—and recognizing that understanding can create opportunities for healing, choice, and change. This is a space for Black and Brown men to slow down, reflect, listen, and explore our stories without shame or judgment. Because sometimes the most powerful question isn’t “What’s wrong with you?” It’s “What happened to you?” 🤎 📝 Registration is now open.

Forever grateful for the people in my corner who support me, encourage me, and continue to be there through every season. I really do believe so much of who we become comes from the people we surround ourselves with, and I feel so incredibly lucky to have the people I do. The ones who celebrate the good, show up during the hard, and always remind you of who you are. And especially my husband, who is always there cheering me on, supporting every idea and every dream, and reminding me that I can do hard things. I’m so grateful to have someone by my side who believes in me the way you do.💕 None of us become who we are on our own, and lately I’ve just been feeling extra grateful for all the love and support, near and far. I truly would not be where I am without the people I have around me. 🤍 #appreciationpost #mypeople #contentcreator #socialmediamanagement #grateful

✨ Season 3 continues! ✨ We’re excited to gather for the next EmpowerMENt Talks. 🗓 August 29, 2026 ⏰ 2:00–4:30 PM 📍 Sam Gary Branch Library 2961 Roslyn St, Denver, CO 80238 This month’s EmpowerMENt Talk centers a powerful and deeply reflective conversation: 🌱 Permission to Become 🌱 Many of us were taught who to be before we ever had the chance to discover who we truly are. We learned to survive, perform, protect, and meet expectations.. but not always to understand ourselves or have our needs fully met. As we grow, many of us begin to realize that the life we’ve built no longer feels aligned with who we are. We start giving ourselves permission to be authentic, yet we often find ourselves wondering... Where do I go from here? Together, we’ll explore questions such as: ✨ What beliefs about myself have I inherited rather than chosen? ✨ What parts of myself have I silenced to be accepted or loved? ✨ What needs have gone unmet, and how have they shaped who I’ve become? ✨ What does my authentic self look like beyond survival and expectation? ✨ What small steps can I take to become the version of myself I want to be? This is not a space for perfection or performance. It’s a space for Black and Brown men to reflect honestly, challenge old narratives, reconnect with themselves, and support one another as they embrace the ongoing journey of becoming. The goal is self-awareness, authenticity, healing, and brotherhood. 🤎🫂 📝 Registration is now open. Link in bio. #brotherhood #mentalhealth #thingstodoindenver #denver #healing

✨ Season 3 continues! ✨ We’re excited to gather for the fifth EmpowerMENt Talks of 2026 on 🗓 May 30, 2026 ⏰ 2:00–4:30 PM 📍 Montbello Branch Library This month’s EmpowerMENt Talk centers a real and necessary conversation: ⚖️ Accountability Without Shame ⚖️ This conversation will focus on what it truly means to take accountability for our actions, decisions, and impact—without carrying shame that keeps us stuck. Many of us were taught to associate accountability with punishment, guilt, or embarrassment. Together, we’ll explore how accountability can instead be a pathway to growth, self-respect, and deeper connection. We’ll create space to reflect on how we show up in our relationships, our communities, and for ourselves—and what it looks like to own our choices while still honoring our humanity. Accountability is not about tearing ourselves down; it’s about building ourselves up with honesty and intention. This is not a space for blame or judgment. It’s a space for Black and Brown men to be real, to learn, and to support one another in becoming better—without shame. The goal is growth, reflection, and brotherhood. 🤎🫂 📝 Registration is now open. Link in bio 🔗 Come build connection, engage in meaningful conversation, and continue the Season 3 journey in a space rooted in truth, compassion, and collective care. We hope to see you there. ✨💬💪🏾 #empowerment #blackmen #brownmen #mentalhealth #thingstodoindenver

✨ Season 3 continues! ✨ We’re excited to gather for the next EmpowerMENt Talks of 2026 on 🗓 April 25, 2026 ⏰ 2:00–4:30 PM 📍 Montbello Branch Library This month’s EmpowerMENt Talk centers a powerful and intentional conversation: Rewriting Personal Narratives ✍🏽 This conversation will focus on how we understand, challenge, and reshape the stories we’ve been told—and the ones we tell ourselves. For many of us, our narratives have been shaped by past experiences, expectations, survival, and societal messages. Together, we’ll explore what it looks like to reclaim those stories and rewrite them in ways that align with who we are and who we’re becoming. This is not a space for judgment or comparison. It’s a space for Black and Brown men to come together, reflect honestly, and hold space for one another’s growth. Whether you’re actively rewriting your story or just beginning to question it, your experience belongs here. The goal is empowerment, reflection, and brotherhood. 🤎🫂 📝 Registration is now open. Come build connection, share your story if you feel called to, and continue the Season 3 journey in a space rooted in authenticity, curiosity, and collective care.

Love seeing how you wear No.4 by Enchanted Alchemy. It unfolds differently on everyone- in the best way. It is always interesting how it settles differently on everyone…. a little softer, a little warmer, sometimes bolder. This is what it is meant for! Orris root, clove, and Sandalwood If you have been curious about No.4, this is a good place to start! #perfume #enchantedalchemy #fragrance #perfumecollection #handmadeperfume #perfumes #indieperfume #longlastingperfume #fumed

✨ Season 3 continues! ✨ We’re excited to gather for the third EmpowerMENt Talks of 2026 on 🗓 March 21, 2026 ⏰ 2:00–4:30 PM 📍 Valdez-Perry Branch Library 🎙️ @darrenlarobinson This month’s EmpowerMENt Talk centers a thoughtful and meaningful conversation: 🌿 Religion / Spirituality 🌿 This conversation will focus on exploring our personal relationships with and without religion or spirituality. For some, faith and spirituality have been a grounding force. For others, their journey may look different. Both experiences deserve space and respect. This is not a space to debate or challenge each other’s beliefs. Instead, it’s a space for Black and Brown men to come together, listen deeply, and hold space for one another—even when our beliefs, perspectives, or paths are different. The goal is understanding, reflection, and brotherhood. 🤎🫂 📝 Registration is now open. Come build connection, share your story if you feel called to, and continue the Season 3 journey in a space rooted in respect, curiosity, and collective care. We hope to see you there. ✨💬💪🏾

This will be a reflective, intentional space for Black and Brown men to slow down, check in, unpack what forgiveness really means, and explore how forgiving ourselves and others can be a pathway to healing, freedom, and growth. We’ll sit in honesty, compassion, and brotherhood—because none of us are meant to do this work alone. 🫂 📝 Registration is now open. Link in bio.
