  • Welcome to today's "Passion and Purpose with Pamela" episode featuring an extraordinary guest, Starr Waters. Since 1999, Starr has dedicated her life to transforming others as a Life and Wellness Coach, starting with her remarkable transformation. Trained at The Coaches Institute in San Francisco, Star boldly became her 'first client,' shedding over half her body weight and proving her methods through personal triumph. Her coaching, which began with a program called The Stay Focused Program, emphasizes plant-based nutrition and holistic healing—practices that not only transformed her health but also reversed her long-standing diabetes and high blood pressure.

    Start's dedication to health and wellness is a personal journey and a commitment to the community. As a community health educator, she has collaborated with prestigious groups and organizations, including the State of Oregon Health Department and The American Heart Association. Her passion lies in educating others about the power of dietary choices in combating diseases that are often considered irreversible. Her work in the health community, in collaboration with these esteemed organizations, is a testament to her expertise and dedication.

    Starr's expertise in wellness extends beyond physical health. She has also made significant contributions to holistic and spiritual disciplines. As a motivational speaker, retreat facilitator, and workshop instructor, she has shared her wisdom internationally, including at Sistahs Jammin' in Jamaica. Her involvement in groups like "Sisters Speak Wellness" and "Spiritual Sisters Speak" further demonstrates her commitment to a well-rounded approach to wellness.

    Off the microphone, Starr is a woman of many passions. She explores her creative side, knitting chunky blankets and engaging in visual arts, which she brings into family and home life, enriching them with her artistic flair. Join us as we delve into Starr's inspiring journey, where we'll learn about her deep knowledge and personal experience in health and wellness and get a glimpse into the multifaceted woman behind the expertise.

Today, in Episode 10: "Unyielding Grace: The Lakisha Williams Story," we are honored to host a remarkable guest, Lakisha Williams.

From grappling with the shadows of homelessness and navigating the tumultuous waters of divorce to embracing the mantle of single motherhood for her three children, her journey has been anything but easy. Yet, Lakisha has faced these trials head-on and transcended them with remarkable grace and strength of character.

    Moving across states for promotions while battling the bureaucratic intricacies of the Veterans Affairs in Georgia, Lakisha's fight for the support she deserved was met with resistance. Undeterred, she took the bold step of standing up for her rights with the VA, showcasing her tenacity and determination.
