A Melanin Mother’s Love: Recent Episodes
Ieshia Greaves
Let’s tell their stories! Over the years I’ve been blessed with the chance to come across people that have truly impacted me. I truly believe that their story needs to be told, and who better to share it than their children!!! Welcome to Season 1 of a Melanin Mother’s Love!
Devotion will touch us all differently. This particular story was drenched in alignment. To know a child, and a woman’s healing was planted 12 years in advance; it’s astounding.
Faith can be difficult to attain; pick the deity of your choice. Life will still present challenges, it’s part of the package.
As always, thank you for the moments you shared with me as I share my art with you.

As I enjoy this third decade of life, I’m realizing there’s beauty in my tone. Insecurity can be a seed of destruction as an adolescent, and I’m grateful that I’ve fallen in love with it(her) more this season.
I was diagnosed (like many of us) with an iron deficiency. Imagine if your lover, your friend or even your reflection was the cure.
Thank you for your support and endless positivity.
