GEM - Introduction...........

My most important role in life is being a mother and a wife. It is an assignment that I do not take lightly, yet I am no expert - I just do my very best.

CEO/President of Solutions Health & Wellness. Solutions Health & Wellness Inc., focuses on promoting and maintaining a healthy life. In addition, we host conferences and continuously work to make a difference in the under served communities through health education focused workshops. I am also the co-founder of SOLUTIONS Cancer Resource Center, Inc. - a non-profit organization. We work with volunteers of health care professionals and students. Our goals are to reach out to the minority communities – although we have focused in the Bronx, we have assisted others in lower Westchester, Harlem and Brooklyn.On the weekends and some evenings, we attend church services and health fairs to speak about the importance of prevention, early detection and inform about the various free or low cost screenings that exist throughout the city.

Summer Ends a New Season Begins............


We have the seasons that last for a while and we make the necessary adjustments to acclimate ourselves. Well as the seasons come and go, I reflect on the various challenges and triumphs that I have had to endure - I call them my seasons. One of my favorite scriptures in the bible is found in the book of Ecclesias… Continue

What just happened here?

How many times have we seen a toddler crying uncontrollably, having a tantrum, screaming at the top of their lungs, etc.? Often times, I have sat on flights with babies and infants who have quite a time adjusting to the confines of their parent's lap and I felt bad for the parents who are now the center of attention as the passengers look on with disgust. In fact, I just returned from Indianapolis from a weekend trip and I watched as a child ran back and forth down the aisle as the parent looked… Continue

What's a Mother to do?!!!!



As I listened to a show this morning as the big news headline focused on the shorts that First Lady Michelle Obama wore while on a trip with her family to the Grand Canyon, the hosts of the show wondered if it was appropriate for her not only being the First Lady of… Continue

It's Here! It's Here!

Hear Ye! Hear Ye! My first CD dropped on 04/08/2009!

My passion to serve others through health care is one that fills me up with ideas always wondering what else can I do to reach others. Well, I decided to create a CD for newly diagnosed cancer patients. I am aware of all of the reading material that exists on cancer. However, I conducted surveys and I have found that many people become overwhelmed reading and at times not being able to understand or retain the information that they have read… Continue

In the business to serve

Solutions Health & Wellness has held various trainings/workshops for Health Care Organizations and was recently asked to present to a Corporate Company.

Hello Dawn,
Thank you for your comment regarding my business. I see that you are involved with cancer research, do you ever have events or does your business use special ribbon colors?? I have created pink ribbons that are sold and a portion has been donated to the American Cancer Society. If you would be interested in teaming together at a point please let me know. These ribbons are created in any specific color and tied with either satin or curly ribbon, depending upon the type of event.

Best wishes
Zandrea

This week was quite mixed - not consistent at all due to my unpredictable schedule. However, this morning, my BFF (hubby) and I hit the track and I did 4 miles. We usually walk the first lap and then run 12 - 16 laps and finish off with a final la...

I am so saddened by this news. I followed this story since I saw it on CNN and Nancy Grace. I was disturbed by the photos of the ex boyfriend carrying her in the hotel room. I can't even think of a punishment that will give them the pain I feel th...

Unfortunately, this is true and I am not even sure that I can agree with the experts. I heard about this a few months ago and I thought for sure that this would not make it this far. In fact, the American Cancer Society will soon be changing their...

What an interesting article. I see GEM is in the slacker section where mom books are no longer striving for perfection :-) Well, they seem to be elxploring the topic but not necessarily understanding the needs of the consumer.

I am having quite a moment now and I must confess. My day began on a great path. I did my meditation, enjoyed a healthy breakfast, worked, tried to work out but had too many emergency interruptions so I just gave up and promised myself to work out...

Great blog post! I totally relate to the "finding it difficult to stay still for a while". We need to learn the peace in stillness :)
