Hi 👋🏾, I’m Tomesha!
I’m a health writer, educator, coach, and the founder of Enhance Black Women’s Health, a platform for healthcare providers, educators, and professionals who want to create more inclusive, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed care.
I specialize in helping people who are tired of healthcare systems that treat weight like a diagnosis and bias like it doesn’t exist. You're in the right place if you crave practical tools, deeper understanding, and real change without the guilt, shame, or information overload.
Who I Work With
I work with providers who want to:
- Better support Black women and other marginalized communities
- Build trust through the words they write and the conversations they have
- Ditch performative diversity efforts for something more rooted in action
- Reduce bias in their communication and clinical workflows
- Reconnect to their purpose without burning out in the process
And I give them the step-by-step tools to:
- Communicate clearly without unintentionally causing harm
- Deliver care that’s both evidence-based and culturally grounded
- Create content that informs, respects, and uplifts
- Build more equitable practices starting with themselves
Why I Do This Work
My journey into health education didn’t start in a classroom. It started in exam rooms, where I was often dismissed, misdiagnosed, or misunderstood. I was living with an autoimmune condition, following “all the rules,” and still being told I just needed to lose weight.
It wasn’t until I began advocating for myself, diving into research, and unlearning so much of what I was taught as a coach that I realized: the problem wasn’t me. The problem was a system not built with people like me in mind.
Now I write, speak, and teach so others don’t have to navigate that system alone. Through every newsletter, post, and training, I’m here to ensure your voice and care reflect the values you hold dear.
AI Use Policy.
Let’s take a minute to chat about tech for a second. I use AI tools (like ChatGPT) to support my writing, especially for idea generation, research, and editing. My content might’ve been more “well-seasoned” with AI in the early days. However, today, my writing is more “lightly seasoned,” like a dash of garlic powder on roasted veggies. It’s just enough to enhance the flavor, but never there to replace the chef.
Every word you read here has passed through my lived experience, ethical lens, and commitment to care. AI may assist in organizing ideas or catching typos, but my values, voice, and mission always come first.
Our Mission:
We help healthcare providers, coaches, and educators speak with more clarity, care, and cultural responsiveness, so the people they serve feel seen, not shamed.
When I’m Not Writing or Coaching...
You’ll find me walking trails with my 11-year-old pup Penny Deena (the goodest girl), curled up with a good book or true crime doc, or testing recipes that honor my Southern roots and nutrition goals.
I’m also a proud Marine Corps veteran, a current student in Precision Nutrition’s Level 2 Master Health Coach certification, and an advocate for equitable healthcare access.
