34: Your Body Knows: Healing Outside the System ft. Walda Laurenceau
Update: 2025-05-27
Description
What if healing didn’t start with a prescription—but with a return?
In this episode, Shelah sits down with licensed acupuncturist and herbalist Walda Laurenceau, founder of Root & Essence Acupuncture, to explore the practices that have always been ours—before the system taught us to forget. From Haitian remèd to Chinese medicine, we unpack how Black women can care for their bodies through ancient, body-first modalities that go deeper than symptom management. If you’ve ever felt dismissed, overprescribed, or just ready to try something different—this one’s for you.
