Quantum Physics &
How it Explains Spirituality
We connect those that support and empower Black Women with our audience. There are different healers in the community who's focus is to support black women to empower themselves. This foundation is to create a community of healing. Our goal is to support Black women in being able to naturally rise above everyday challenges to what creates drama/trauma infused situations - anything- that holds us back from fully realizing ourselves & our innate potential.
“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.”
― Maya Angelou
It is Not the Mountain we Conquer but Ourselves
"As a child, it was never my aspiration to wake up everyday and say
“how can I be helpless and fearful today?”
Like everyone else, I had hopes & dreams.
Through time, through life, through all the crap I held onto, what I passioned
my life to become had completely missed the mark. I blamed
everything and everyone around me, never owning up - to how - my silently
held anger and deeper vengeance was, in reality, the actual culprit."
- B. Hopkins
Hello everyone my name is B. Hopkins. I am the youngest daughter
of Betty J Henderson Hopkins. The woman who this foundation was named after.
Our family’s history began like so many Black Americans, in slavery.
I first created this foundation to fulfill my mother’s living wish of making her
art work (that encapsulates both her memories and dreams) available to
those that were inspired by her pieces. In a twist of fate the foundations
course evolved into a greater desire of hers,
supporting Black women into claiming themselves.
"As a child, it was never my aspiration to wake up everyday and say “how can I be helpless and fearful today?” Like everyone else, I had hopes & dreams. Through time, through life, through all the crap I held onto, what I passioned my life to become became filtered and unrecognizable. I blamed everything and everyone around me, never owning up - to how - my silently held anger and deeper vengeance was, in reality, the actual culprit." ~ B. Hopkins Hello everyone my name is B. Hopkins. I am the youngest daughter of Betty J Henderson Hopkins. The woman who this foundation was named after. Our family’s history began like so many Black Americans, in slavery. I first created this foundation to fulfill my mother’s living wish of making her art work (that encapsulates both her memories and dreams) available to those that were inspired by her pieces. In a twist of fate the foundations course evolved into a greater desire of hers, supporting Black women into claiming themselves. Due to a lifelong and distorted misperception that fueled my anger and vengeance I only realized this core of who my mother was until after her death. A grief filled regret I decided to turn around. Instead I chose to use my grief as the fuel to finally - let go - and transform myself so I could bring her full dream into reality. The irony of my story is, 14 years prior, in my never ending search for freedom I guided myself to the answer I was looking for. I never valued or used this knowledge - instead, I choose to regurgitate my anger filled misperceptions. In my thoughts of anger and vengeance I could only see my discovery as a lump of coal, not the diamond that it actually was. It was only recently that I realized that diamond in my hand is the only thing, in ALL my journeys, that could even truly address the level of anger and vengeance I carried. My mother’s passing away before her dream was fully realize became grief I could not run from. As a result, the purpose of this foundation has grown into supporting other Black women into exchanging any anger or vengeance we perceive and may continue to live though from our mutual inherited history, into having greater freedom & self love. My only wish for those that discover this site is that you make a different choice than I originally did and not take the 14 years that it took me to let go of what only creates same old, same old - and begin the journey of self-love - by forgiving ignorance. I'm happy to share my story to promote the growth of this foundation. This foundation uses the inspiration of her art projects to support you in igniting your own unique gifts. Use your innate courage to never settle for anything less than being who you are by always imagining your world as you passion it to be.
