Episode #75: Kandice Porter Helps Us Say Goodbye
Michelle Fox: Welcome to Nourish with Michelle Fox, your guide to a vibrant life If consistency has been a challenge for you and you occasionally forget self-care, you, my friend are in the right place. Tune in for weekly inspiration to nourish your mind. I know your plate's full and I want to help you support a life and a body that you adore. Let's dig in.
Michelle Fox: Today, I am so honored to be joined by the Kandice Porter. I see her as the queen of storytelling. And I'll read a little bit of her bio in a moment. But if you haven't heard, this is our last episode of this season. Because mama. That's me is about to hit the pause button. I have talked to Steve and the family, and we have decided it is in my best interest, which means of course, in their best interest for me to take a sabbatical.
So I am truly excited among a million other emotions about taking a sabbatical between March 15th and April 15th. So I will be completely unplugged. And so with that decision, it came very easily. Well, that's probably not the word I will say. The decision flowed because my word for 2024 is alignment. So it felt very much in alignment to say goodbye to Nourish with Michelle Fox for now.
And we'll see what comes out of this sabbatical. It could be I come back with a million more amazing ideas for this podcast. It could mean we hit the pause button for a couple months, couple years. What I do know and what I can say is that I'm very clear that I am walking into this sabbatical and this pause button with just an air of curiosity, a curiosity of what God has in store for me and for the people that I serve.
And so with that, I thought it would be an amazing, amazing get if Kandice Porter would help me to tell my story and she said yes, so she's here. So let me tell you a little bit about my friend KP. Not only is she a truly incredible friend, but she is a dynamic speaker, a coach, a workshop facilitator, and she is passionate about empowering Black women to share their stories and amplify their voices.
With a deep understanding of the power of storytelling, Kandice is dedicated to helping Black women step into the spotlight and reach bigger audiences. Kandice is a champion for Black women. And so, yes. Just all the yeses of why she is here today to help me share my story with you because I want to lead with gratitude because you, listener, have been a part of my community whether this is your first episode or you've been with us for all 80 plus episodes.
I am so grateful for you And so I only wanted the best to give us the white glove treatment in saying goodbye for now so Kandice Porter Welcome to the show.
Kandice Porter: Oh, Michelle. Thank you so much for having me. You have no idea how much this means to me. And just to be here at this time for you. It means a lot. It means a lot. And I'm so grateful to be here to talk through this transition.
Michelle Fox: Thank you for using that word. Absolutely. It's a transition. Mm hmm. It's also the perfect word to lead into playing a rapid fire game. Are you game? Come on, rapid fire. All right. Come on, rapid. I think I know the answer to this one, but, you know, I'm open for surprises.
Okay. So, quick questions, quick answers. I don't know. Are you up for it?
Kandice Porter: I'm so ready. Okay, let's do it. I'm so ready. Ooh.
Michelle Fox: Cats or dogs?
Kandice Porter: Ooh. Neither.
Michelle Fox: That was a surprise. Okay, moving on to the next. If you had to pick from french fries, ice cream, or apple pies.
Kandice Porter: French fries all day.
Michelle Fox: Oh, that was an easy one. Okay.
Yep. Last but not least, would you be willing to share with us a story from your childhood in the kitchen?
Kandice Porter: Ooh, in the kitchen. Let me think about in the kitchen. You know, the, the, the best that I could think about with being in the kitchen as a child, I was, I was the baby girl. So I don't really, they didn't let me in the kitchen much. They were like, Kandice, get out.
Michelle Fox: And you say baby, baby from how many? Two. Okay. So I have two older sisters. Okay. And so I don't, I don't think there was really an opportunity to like be in the kitchen much. Okay. So my, my, my thoughts about the kitchen or my memories of the kitchen are just it not being a part of the cooking part of the kitchen.
Kandice Porter: And even until today, I'm still not good. Okay. Fair enough. Fair enough.
Michelle Fox: Thank you for the giggles. I needed that. Like, energetically, it feels like I'm like, you're going to be peeling the fingers off of the microphone for me. I am passing you the baton, where should we begin?
Kandice Porter: Oh, Michelle, Michelle, Michelle. I want to begin first by just, like you said, you want to lead with gratitude. And I think that's very important because you have served your audience for such a long time. Actually it looks like since September 13th, 2022, if I'm correct. yes, huh, huh, girl, who did their retail? I did. And so it looks like, yes. And you, you had a little bit of a rebranding last year, but it looks like you started with, something called, Healthy, Sexy Nutrition.
Yes. So Healthy, Sexy Nutrition. And so I just, we, we really cannot talk about where we're going until we talk about where we've been, rIght?.And so I just want to take a little bit of time to talk through how you feel right now. and how this has brought you so much gratitude and so much, joy in the time that you were serving.
So can we start with gratitude? What would you like to say? and just your, from your heart of gratitude, what are you feeling right now in regards to that?
Michelle Fox: Hmm. Thank you so much for asking. Absolutely. So, yes, I am entirely grateful for this community, and I want to be clear on who I mean when I say community.
So that means my listeners. Absolutely. That means my friends, yourself included, who have held my hand through a lot of the tough times, but also have held my hand celebrating a lot of the great times. That community includes Steve, my husband, who's been just an amazing rock of support and letting me be as creative as I want to be as I've explored different conversations.
Just knowing that I have the safety of his love and protection. It's helped me kind of push some boundaries and some conversations that I felt like he'd be completely open. And so that has been an amazing piece of the community. My mom, she was on the show, but she was also, and I shouldn't say past tense because she's probably watching this as well, but she has been my number one fan.
Like almost after every single episode, she'll call to let me know, well, maybe this person needs this, or, you know, I have these resources here. And then of course my community on social media, the people who have made beautiful comments on the post when I let people know what's coming up. And so Kandice, I have to say I have felt so held by this community of women and of men. It's just, it's been a really beautiful journey.
Kandice Porter: Yes. It really has been a beautiful journey. And I want to talk about the journey. So thank you so much for segwaying into that. I want to talk about when you first started and when you said, you want to know what? This is something that I want to talk to people about and why it was so important for you.
So can you tell us what started you with this podcasting at all?
Michelle Fox: So as you were saying that, I got this flashback from high school. I was a super nerd and I was really proud of it. And I still am. You should be. Absolutely. Please do. Yes. Thank you. And with that though, came with this idea of hyper achievement. So I was captain of the cheerleading team. I was, I was president of the National Honor Society.
I was captain of the track and field team. Like there, like I could go on and on and I won't because part of it feels a little braggadocious.
Kandice Porter: That's good and you should do that. Right now. You should, you should feel that way.
Michelle Fox: Well, well. I guess my point in bringing this up, of course, being the firstborn as well.
I think hyperachievement often comes with being the firstborn. That's brought me to today where I'm like, it's not serving me anymore. Like I can see why I was such a hyperachiever then. And it's brought me to beautiful places. But that Michelle doesn't make 51 year old Michelle happy any longer.
Absolutely. And so that's why I'm taking this time away. So painting that picture, but just to answer your question, I started this podcast almost two years ago because I was having conversations with my girlfriends that I wasn't hearing out in the interwebs or on the podcasts and I'm like, well, if we're talking about things like menopause and husbands who are going through addiction or children leaving the nest and I'm like, where are these voices?
I'm like, well, I have a voice.
Kandice Porter: You have a voice.
Michelle Fox: I can bring these conversations. To the world and to my community. And so that's really why and how I started this conversation because, oh, and another reason why I brought up the whole nerdiness as a kid is because I didn't have a lot of close friendships growing up. And now as an adult, I have cultivated many friendships because it feeds a certain need that I didn't have met when I was younger.
And this podcast has felt like. A way to empower certain friendships, to create new friendships, but also I feel, I sincerely feel like I'm friends with my listeners, like the feedback that I get with them. From them, and then I'm talking to them, like, feels like these are my new friends. And so that just, it's really served my heart to have this podcast.
Kandice Porter: You know, Michelle, there's all the, all the things that you ticked off on are things that I can tick off as well. When you talk about, havingnot serving you things, not serving you any longer. I can definitely speak to that. as in 2022, so I guess when you were starting your podcast, right?
When you started in 22, 23,
I know I'm, I'm sorry, math. I'm like, Oh, I'm sorry. A year and a half ago, what I'm telling you to, okay. Was it 22? Okay. So in 22, I was actually dissolving my business. So you were picking up this podcast as I was putting my business down. I had a business called Bonding to the Beat and I taught preschool music enrichment and I loved it.
I was in about my ninth year and, but COVID happened. And so it was just hard to continue that business when COVID came and wreaked havoc on it, but it's fine. Right? so I understand how it feels to have to dissolve and transition, you know?
Michelle Fox: well, then I, and I know I said I passed the mic, but as soon as you said that, I'm like, what were some of the immediate thoughts?
And I know different circumstances, like I'm leaving more personal choice versus outside pandemic choice, but what were some of the feelings that you were feeling once you knew it was time to move on?
Kandice Porter: My goodness, I was broken. Mm. And I grieved so hard. Mm. It was literally like someone had took my baby from me.
Mm. You know, I was like, wait, this is my baby. Wait, wait. My baby's sick. Like, oh my God. And so I had to. I had to let them take my sick baby. I'm sorry. And I grieved really hard, Michelle. I did. and I'm, I'm still grieving. Like, I, I really, I really can't say that I grieved because it is
Michelle Fox: It's ongoing.
Kandice Porter: It's ongoing.
And so I felt like Kandice, don't let shame or, don't, don't let shame creep in because it was out of your control. You didn't have, you didn't have a choice. You had to, but it just didn't serve me anymore. Even when I tried to maneuver and make different moves with it, it just didn't fit. Mm. Mm hmm. It just didn't serve me.
Michelle Fox: And I know you are a spiritual person. Yes, I am. And so oftentimes when these big things happen, like for you, that felt out of your control. And then for me, like this feels very Big, just as far as me making new life choices and new business choices. Oftentimes I see that as co creation, like something's happening in our heart.
And also I'm so clear that God has a bigger plan for us.
Kandice Porter: We wouldn't be here right now. Like, I literally started serving at a different capacity at the same time that my business was transitioning. It was a co creation, literally a co creation. So people are like, wait, you just put this business down and now you're starting a new one.
I was like. Well, it wasn't my thought. I'm just kind of here now. but I get it. Like, I get it. I was like, okay, I need it to. Oh, this is what I said. Yeah. I was literally going. Through birth, I was birthing something at the same time that something was dying.
Michelle Fox: Oh, that got me right in my core. That's what I feel right now.
Like I'm letting go of the way I've been doing business. And even though I don't know what my next steps are, like, I'm just so encouraged, especially it helps to see examples like you and other women in our circle who are following the voice, whether it's internal and or God's voice. You're following your path.
Yeah. And then I'll also say selfishly, but I wouldn't have known you. We wouldn't have been friends if this didn't happen to you. Absolutely. We wouldn't have. Selfishly. I'm so grateful.
Kandice Porter: I know me too. I am too. I love our friendship. Me too, Michelle. And that's why it's important for us to use our voices because if I never did that, or if you never Like came on here.
First of all, you would have left your audience hanging, but we knew that Michelle's not going to go out like that. But it, but, but also there is someone out there, right who may be in the same position as you, Michelle. I don't, I don't really know what to do. I don't know what the next step is. I don't know. I don't know, but I know that I have to make this step right now. Yes.
Michelle Fox: Thank you for saying that.
Kandice Porter: And if it wasn't for you coming on. And saying this and being open for your audience, then how would they know that it's okay to take a little bit of a pause?
Michelle Fox: Thank you for intuiting that. Because yes, that is truly my goal and sharing my story and Living out loud and of course with this sabbatical, I will be, absent from social media as well.
Okay. However, I've been on socials, living out loud a little over 10 years now. And so, I feel like I've given plenty. Yes. And by the way, if you're missing me, just go socials at Michelle Fox Love and, and I'll be there for you.
Kandice Porter: Absolutely. You'll be right there. Like you'll be right there. And. I, you know, and a couple of things also that you, we also had in common that, you know, we both have husbands who, you know, working their way through addiction and not only that, but empty nest.
Right. So then we also have, well, I'm sorry. No, I can't. No.
Michelle Fox: I'm almost there. I've got two more years.
Kandice Porter: I, I was, I was thinking about me nowhere near empty nest.
Michelle Fox: I'm like, cause your babies are young. I'm like, maybe this is from another, okay, got it. But, but we did have one leave and maybe you channeled that.
Cause I truly am grieving that my 17 year old daughters don't really need me right now. Like, Oh my goodness, Quote unquote. They need me in different ways.
Kandice Porter: It is different, but it is different from what you're, from what you're used to. And so you're just in transition.
Michelle Fox: Beautiful. Maybe I'll be our new title for this podcast, Woman in Transition.
Kandice Porter: You are. You're in transition and that's it. Now while we're talking about transition, we already know that we led with gratitude. I want to talk about some of the highlights. Okay. So let's talk through some of the highlights. What were, I want to talk through some of what were your favorite episodes and why I want to know why those were your good ones.
Okay. Bye. Yeah. And I know that that's hard because you've had out of over 75 episodes, number one, it's going to be hard to just like pick and choose. So, so I guess without putting the pressure on you too much, overall, you know, what were your favorites and, and, and why did they give you that feeling?
Michelle Fox: Thank you for the disclaimer. I feel like I need to do a double triple disclaimer just because So grateful for all of my guests for sharing their time and their wisdom with me and you know I'm still human so of course there were certain episodes that I love yeah and certain episodes I was like well we'll do this because maybe somebody needed to hear this today it was all right So with that, I would say, and because maybe it's more fresh, the interview with Amber Simon, where we talked about sensual pleasure, oh my gosh, she held nothing back.
And I felt so held by her to talk about sex and intimacy, whether you're partnered or by yourself and how our bodies have, changed after the age of 40. And like, That was just a fire episode. Let me see if I wrote down. I love it. Oh, that was episode number 70. So I took notes there. You mentioned about both of our husbands living with
addiction, which means you and I are also living with addiction. That's right. That's right. That's right. And so, Steve came on twice. Wow. Episode 45 was the most recent, I think. Maybe that was his first. Mm hmm. Either way, I just thought it was so brave of him. It's like, yeah, he held nothing back. He shared his journey.
We shared our journey together. Absolutely. Absolutely. I just thought that took a lot of courage and I think it was my first male voice on the podcast. And so that was a fun treat.
Kandice Porter: That is a treat.
Michelle Fox: Yes. A popular one that, was very healing to me was episode 42. That was Michelle Santo and she helped, tap for food freedom.
So it's the EFT tapping as I'm like. If you're watching us on YouTube, it's like, we're clapping our head, we're clapping here, like it's a whole thing, and that was very, soothing to my nervous system, so I really love that episode.
Kandice Porter: Absolutely. I love that. I love that.
Michelle Fox: And then there was, yeah, I have like a ton more notes, but I actually don't want to again, I don't want to leave anybody out, but please know, former guests, I've got a whole list.
And so you're probably on here because I have truly just, I've been so grateful for everybody who came on this show.
Kandice Porter: Absolutely. Absolutely. And, you did talk about the tapping and that, that was going to ask you about that. Like what were some of the topics that resonated with you? Some of your top topics, like you said, with Amber.
And then, about the tapping, but were there any others that you walked away from? Like, wow, I really feel like that not only helped my audience, but also helped me.
Michelle Fox: Yes, I, yes. So Megan Teltner, she was my teacher for culinary nutrition. In fact, I went to her academy to get certified and her team reached out during her time of transition where she actually left nutrition.
Okay. And. You would've thought I won the lotto. OMG Kandice! When I got that email, I was like, one of those. Yes. Like I get to talk to the Megan Toner. As I'm sharing that with Steve, he's like, well, remember you put her on your vision board last year. I'm like, Mm-Hmm, . Thank you partner. And so yes, that was a co-creation. So not only was I so excited to have her on the show because of my admiration of her.
But her message of how she decided that she was making a transition, like the whole time I was like, Oh my goodness, that gives me so much more permission to listen to my voice and listen to how I wanted to create. My current profession. Absolutely. And so, yeah, that was just a beautiful gift.
Kandice Porter: I love it.
There's nothing like it when you, those, those situations that happen and you're like, well, this really happened for me. This happened just for me. And I love that because it is. It's just so, important to know that you're still on God's mind for me. Like, Oh, thank you. You did that for me. I appreciate that.
So I get that. So, thank you for sharing that with me. So I want to talk a little bit. About our experience when we were at Sistahbiz and I walked up to my girl, Michelle, and I noticed that she was not necessarily herself and she thought she would get away with just asking me how I was doing, but I have a very strong gift of discernment.
And, I noticed that she just was not herself that day. And so in the middle of me talking, I was like, girl, no, how are you feeling? And all she did was just shake her head. No. And I knew that something was happening internally and deeply, because we were just in this place where we were getting filled to capacity and, you know, and I'm not saying that that wasn't happening for you, Michelle, but it was just different.
And I knew, I knew that something deeper was going on. So without like, You know, trying to prod you and poking prod like, girl, what's wrong? What's wrong? Is it the kids? What is it?I just gave you space, but also embraced. Right? to let you know that you were supported, and that whatever was going on that it would be okay.
So I want to talk through the pausing, and I want to talk through that this isn't just something that you decided a couple days ago, but that it was something that had been on you for about 13 months now. Mm hmm. Mm. Which is also the day that you started your podcast, the 13th, so, Oh, you're good. You are so good.
So I want to know how now 13 months later, we're coming to a little bit of a pause. You said mama needs a break.
Michelle Fox: Mama needs a break. Yes. And in that story, you're so graceful that you didn't share that. I went into the ugly cry. As Oprah calls it.
Kandice Porter: It wasn't ugly to me.
Michelle Fox: And this embrace, you see these beautiful shoulders just held me and held me until the sobbing ended.
And even when it ended I didn't have words and Candice just held space. So again, I thank you. Absolutely. For asking and looking into me deeper than the surface that I was trying to show. That's right. That's right. So, you know, three months after that experience, what I know now is that we, Kandice and I were with Sistahbiz at Gold Digger and there were all these amazing spirits just talking about their financial success and business success. And then we were learning these tools to, you know, scale our businesses. And I mean, it was amazing. Like the energy in the room was palpable and it felt like a. Like I was here in the yumminess of the energy, but I was also here, not yet giving myself permission to say, I'm no longer in love with my business.
And I couldn't do it in that space. And so I know as soon as you looked into my soul and I was able to release like that was a nice release. But even then, like it's taken almost three months now that I had the words. And so what's come to me now is. Well, what I can say what I know for sure is that I am absolutely in love with my international wellness retreats, and I love pampering other women and at the time of this,
posting of this recording, I will be in Costa Rica, like I'm counting down the days as we sit here recording. Yes, and just a little plug there for my friends who are listening. If you want to get on the wait list for the September retreat and then the next March retreat, just go to michellefox.com/retreat and you will be one of the first to know of the next one.
But yeah, the time to pause. It's been talking to a therapist. It's been talking to a business coach. It's been talking to this community of friends I mentioned earlier. I feel like the only reason I can't call myself a broken record is because I think you all have heard the same story. But, I'm not telling the same person the same story over and over.
And so that's right. In that it's just been healing that God's given me all these different mirrors to say, Michelle, it's okay. It's okay. It's okay. I have been working since the age of 12 when I was babysitting. And then at 13, I would ride my bike to Walmart where I worked in the snack shop at the age of 13.
And from then on, you know, 12 to the age of 51, I have been working almost every single day. And so when I say I am tired. I am tired. So , yes, absolutely. I want these next steps for this next part of my life. Mm. To be more intentional. I don't, sure don't, I don't want this busyness and just doing, doing, doing, because I'm making other people happy.
Like I'm Mm-Hmm. ready just to take a moment to see what makes me happy. Yes. And so that's the part that gets me really excited about this.
Kandice Porter: It should, this next step should, Michelle, not only that, but. You're a wife. You're a mommy. You're a dog mommy. Thank you for Chloe dogs' shoutout.. A business owner. And all of those things, you're a daughter, you're a sister.
you're a community advocate. You are the things. Right? When we are all the things, It makes it hard to be all the things for us, right? Yes. And not to mention, we love to be those things. Absolutely. I'll say it again, we love to be those things, okay? But we're also being sucked dry, okay? If you don't know how it feels to have a husband, and you have to walk through his sobriety with him as wives, that's hard.
Okay. So we carry our own things, right? If you don't know how it is to be a mother, right, to teenagers, that's not easy. If you don't know how it feels when you're in entrepreneurship and you're hearing all these beautiful success stories, right? But you're like, I don't even know if I want my, my business anymore.
I don't even know if I'm going. For me, that was for me. I was like, man, I don't even know if I'm going in the right direction. I don't know what's going on to, to recognize that Michelle. And then to say, I need to pause. I don't want to just skip past the fact that you put yourself on a pause because it's hard being all of those things, Michelle.
But the fact that you said, I've done for everybody else. Mama needs a break. Thank you. I'm so grateful that you are showing your community. and others that when you feel like you are being depleted, you need to pause. You need to make sure that you have the things in order to pause. So I want to thank you for being an example of truly nourishing yourself in that way.
Michelle Fox: Thank you. Ah, I'm just taking that in because it is very It's very easy for me to forget. Yeah. It's very easy for me to be self critical and tell myself, we can do it just a little bit more, a little bit more. And my spirits finally said, no, no, we we've done enough for now. We're good right now. We're good right now.
Kandice Porter: And to know that you're going to be doing what you love, which is serving women on a retreat. Right? You're going to be doing what you love. But Michelle, I want you to still make sure. that even when you're gone, that you are still taking care of yourself because you are still on pause.
Michelle Fox: Thank you. Absolutely.
Kandice Porter: I don't know how much time we have left.
Michelle Fox: I know. I think it is time to wind down. And while you look at your notes, of course, the firstborn in me just wants to highlight some of the fun numbers and pieces. So. We have reached over 10, 000 downloads on this show. I feel so proud of that. And as I'm reading these notes, it just hit me.
I would be remiss not to thank another piece of my community, which are my teammates. And so Shirley Lin, she's no longer on my team right now, but she has done an amazing job with my graphics through the time she was. My writer, Di in the beginning, just helping me get the podcast going, she just jumped right in.
And so, so grateful and shout out to Shirley Lin and then our current podcast manager who is Brittany McCray. She's incredible. She makes really wonderful, intuitive decisions with the audio editing. And so I've been so grateful to have her on the team.But numbers wise, our demographics were on... I say only, but only 83 percent female, and I say it that way because when I'm talking to my friends, I just assume we're all females.
And so that gives me, of course, that extra level of comfort to say what I want, but it also. I love that that means that's, what doing the math. That's 17 percent men. So that tells me they're learning something as well.
Kandice Porter: They're learning something as well. Absolutely.
Michelle Fox: So that's been amazing. Our top markets have been Denver, New York and San Diego.
Kandice Porter: Come on, Denver, New York and San Diego.
Michelle Fox: Right? And I think that's probably it. I'm reading some notes from my media kit and some of this is with socials, but just for the podcast, that's been just fun to highlight our growth. Absolutely. Just knowing that the people are listening. People, people feel like they're part of this nourished community.
I'm just, I'm so grateful for that. Cannot stop saying how grateful I am for that.
Kandice Porter: Absolutely. And so as we are getting ready to close, I did just want to give you the definition of nourish. Okay. So I'm going to give you two definitions. The first one is, provide with food or other substance necessary for growth.
Okay. That's, that's the one that we all know, right? But then we also have nourish, a feeling or belief in one's mind, typically for a long time. Okay, so as you are pausing, as you were saying goodbye for just a little bit, we know that this Nourish podcast is something that typically is going to stay in one's mind for a long time.
That's the beauty of podcasting and digital media. It stays around for a very long time. Some of the testimonials that I was able to read is that Michelle brings all the joy and energy to healthy eating. I love her energy. Thanks for sharing your energy. I appreciate that her wisdom comes in bite sized gentle reminders.
So as we go through this transition, I want to gently remind you that I believe that God has things in your future that are beyond what you could ever think or imagine.
So I am so very grateful to have been here to help you celebrate this transition because we celebrate the fact that self care is taking precedence over our everyday normal life. We're taking, we're, we're, we are definitely celebrating that. And we celebrate you. We celebrate you, Michelle, for, for over 75 episodes, weekly episodes, weekly episodes of consistency, of knowledge, of wisdom, of care, of concern.
We thank you for all that you've done for your nourished community.
Michelle Fox: KP. Yes. Candice Kandice mm
Kandice Porter: hmm. We celebrate you. Thank you. We do. We celebrate you and we thank you for being the example for when you need to pause. You better pause.
Michelle Fox: Mm. Mm.
Okay. That's it. Well, you asked me in the beginning, what are my favorite episodes. This happens to be now just reached the number one. Ah!
Kandice Porter: Whoop! Ah! Whoop! Whoop!
Michelle Fox: So, thank you, my friend. Thank you, thank you. And you see Listeners and my community and my friends, why I asked this powerhouse storyteller to help me say goodbye and or pause for now.
And so Kandice, I know people will need and want more KP. Where, where can they find you?
Kandice Porter: Oh my goodness. You guys can find me on the socials. I am under Kandice. K. A. N. D. I. C. E. L. Porter and you know, there were doing some really beautiful work for black women sharing their stories and we just struggle with that.
And so to find a space where we feel,safe, and to be able to just share our truth beautifully is what I love to do. And so that is where you can find me, or you can find me at www. fillingwell. com. And that is where you'll find my business, The Filling Well, a space for sisters and their stories.
Michelle Fox: I feel absolutely filled. So thank you. And thank you to my listeners, to my community. Like I said, this is goodbye for now. If you want to stay in community, which I really hope you do, please join my email list. It's michellefox.com/community.

Anything you wanted to add before we go?
