My name is Joanna. I am 27 years old, Puerto Rican, born and raised in Brooklyn, NY. I am owner & creator at Prana Sense(@pranaforsense), an online based herbal company targeting mental, emotional, & physical healing. I am a strong Hispanic woman from a background of strong Hispanic women. I come from strength, self-sufficiency, independence, pain, & resilience. I believe what makes me who I am is my honesty and my dedication to my growth. My father always said to me ‘You have to take care of yourself first if you want to be in the position to take care of others.’ I found out that in order to grow I’d have to strip myself bare & look at all of my raw parts, beautiful and hideous. And to find what happiness truly is for me, I would have to be totally & brutally honest with myself and other people. This is an everlasting process and has been the best ride I’ve ever been on. Being honest in small & big moments & staying true to my freedom & the boundaries that create my happiness, has allowed me to grow and help people in ways beyond the value of any amount of money or exclusive material. I stand for Honesty from the heart. I think that honesty, even in the most minute ways, is intimidating for humans. I believe we must be honest with ourselves primarily in order to grow and find healthy ways to express even the smallest honesty to others, without taking offense or defence. I am anti Suppression. While we live in a suppressed society, I do believe most people have attached that suppression to their spirit in ways they do not or no longer need to. I am anti personal disservice for the comfort of another. I am anti disrespecting boundaries. I am anti not being who I truly am out of fear of consequences.
