Let's Talk Program
The program “Let’s Talk” was created from Rev. Odell's personal traumatic experiences; she calls “Interruptions.” Odell offers transparency into her emotional challenges and her resiliency to reinvent herself. The program material is designed to lead discussions to acknowledge, recognize those unexplainable feelings, behaviors, and how to break through the burdensome myths and stigmas of our families, faith, society, and culture.

"Interruptions has broken my need for silence. I am embracing the opportunity to listen for and hear my own voice. I didn't realize how powerful, paralyzing and toxic silence was until I learned to listen for and hear my own voice. Thank you Rev. Odell for seeing and hearing my silence and breaking through. "

This book is an excellent teaching tool and can help start the talk about grieving. Thank you Rev. Odell for speaking your truth and allowing us to see a pathway to move forward!"
