NaTasha Jackson

I am a California Native and mother of two adorable children Willis Jr. and Ayaana. I have spent the last 13 years working with disadvantaged youth with emotional, physical, and mental disabilities from New Orleans to Detroit and locally. I studied Psychology at Cal State Northridge. In 2007 NaTasha and her husband Willis welcomed their 2nd child Imani Rose into this world. Imani was diagnosed with Holoprosencephaly a rare brain abnormality with a very poor prognosis. Imani suffered tremendously spending most of her life in hospitals and receiving evasive medical attention. Imani was a brave soul who suffered tremendously yet still beat the odds. She lived 17 months and then got her wings. Imani’s life and death was the breaking point also for my marriage that resulted in a 2 year seperation and divorce. These losses brought me to a grief recovery 10 week workshop that helped her move past the pain and devastation of each of my losses. Today I am a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist who help bring hope to those who've experienced loss. I've learned what it is to experience tragedy and come out on the other side. I was depressed and gained alot weight often sleeping and eating to cope! Today I am a successful accomplished entrepreneur Living Life to the full! I am a Public speaker and Life Coach helping others through their grief journey I can finally enjoy my family without the constant pain from my past. losses
