  • My Journey: Why SEL is Not Optional; It’s Essential

    My Journey: Why SEL is Not Optional—It’s Essential

    For me, SEL is not theory—it’s survival.

    Hello and welcome! My name is Char’Ketha “Coach Charlie” Hemphill: an educator, a certified spiritual life coach, and most importantly, a woman who has walked the path of healing after growing up in a fatherless home.

    For over 10 years, I’ve served in education, guiding students both academically and emotionally. Alongside earning my Master’s in Social and Emotional Learning (SEL), I’ve dedicated myself to helping women of color embrace healing, confidence, and their God-given purpose.

    But my passion for SEL doesn’t come only from textbooks, it comes from my lived experience. Growing up without a father left me with unanswered questions about love, worthiness, and belonging. Those wounds shaped how I saw myself and how I navigated relationships. For years, I wrestled with doubt, trust, and vulnerability.

    It was faith, family, and the discipline of SEL that helped me turn pain into purpose. I learned that SEL is not just another school program; it is the soil in which identity, resilience, and wholeness grow. It teaches us to name our emotions, regulate them, and build the kind of relationships that sustain us through life’s hardest seasons.

    When I step into a classroom, a coaching session, or even a simple conversation, I see SEL as a requirement—not an option. Why? Because every child, every adult, every community deserves the tools to heal from trauma, build confidence, and flourish in their purpose.

    Through this blog, I’ll be sharing stories, strategies, and reflections for women and educators who are navigating the intersection of trauma, healing, and growth. My hope is that this space becomes a healing room and a blooming garden—a place where we lift one another, build connections, and remember that our scars don’t define us, they refine us.

    So, welcome to this journey. I invite you to walk with me as we water the seeds of resilience, faith, and transformation. 🌸

    With love and light,
    Coach Charlie 🌿

  • Welcome Home A Safe Space & SisterhoodHello World!

    Where tradition holds us steady, faith lights our path, and healing moves us forward—together.

    Beloved sister, I’m so glad you’re here. This corner of the internet is a refuge as quiet as a prayer room, warm as a family kitchen. We gather with reverence for the past, courage for the present, and hope for the future. Here, we honor our stories and water what is ready to bloom.

    Safe & Brave: We protect one another’s stories and practice courageous honesty without shame.

    Faith‑Rooted: We ground our healing in Scripture, prayer, and grace.

    Trauma‑Informed: We move gently, name triggers, and choose consent and boundaries.

    Forward‑Looking: We honor what was—and build what will be.

    .Here you’ll find Sisterhood Letters—short, heartfelt teachings on identity, resilience, and wholeness; SEL for the Soul—practical tools for naming emotions, regulating your nervous system, and mending relationships; From Classroom to Community—insights for parents, teachers, and leaders who want cultures of care; Prayer & Practice—Scriptures, guided prayers, and weekly rituals to anchor your week; and Bloom Challenges—gentle, doable steps to build confidence and consistency.

    House Rules (for Holy Ground)

    • Honor names and stories. No shaming, gossip, or hateful speech—ever.

    • Share from your own experience; ask before advising. Consent matters.

    • Use trigger notes when needed; hold space with tenderness.

    • We don’t replace therapy; we do encourage it. Healing loves good helpers.

    Begin Here: A Simple Ritual

    Breath — Inhale: “I am seen.” Exhale: “I am safe.” Inhale: “I am supported.” Exhale: “I am strong.”

    Scripture — “God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved.” — Psalm 46:5 (KJV)

    Prayer — God of comfort and courage, bless this room of women. Make it a refuge for the weary and a garden for the ready. Guard our hearts, guide our words, and grow our roots deep in You. Amen.

    Journal Prompt — Where have I felt most “at home” in my own story—and what small step could make more room for that feeling this week?

    If this space speaks to you, stay a while. Leave a kind word, share a testimony, or invite a friend who needs the reminder that she is not alone. We’re building something steady and beautiful—brick by brick, prayer by prayer.

    “Sister, you are not behind. You are becoming.”

    With love and light,
    Coach Charlie 🌿
