We recently connected with Cassandra Hill and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Cassandra thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Was there a moment in your career that meaningfully altered your trajectory? If so, we’d love to hear the backstory.
Early in my career as a Gerontologist, I became pregnant. Unfortunately, after one month, I miscarried my baby and became emotionally distraught. The corporation that I worked for requested me to come back to work after taking off for one day. At this moment I realized that you can pour into a corporation and still not be valued. Years later when I was considering entrepreneurship this incident came to mind and I came to the conclusion that I should invest in myself.
When an individual values themself life looks different. Your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being becomes a priority. Through educating myself in alternative medicine and health/wellness God blessed me to develop a regimen that healed my body from systemic lupus. Ultimately doing the work to heal eventually lead to the birthing of Holistic Living Consulting.
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
For over 10 years I went misdiagnosed as anemic when I actually had systemic lupus. Traveling to healthcare professionals in various areas it always seemed like my voice wasn’t heard. When God blessed me to heal from this horrific condition, it became my passion to facilitate the healing of other women particularly Black women. In fulfilling the vision to eradicate health disparities among Black women Holistic Living Consulting focuses on providing education and sharing best practices for empowering a woman in her health and well-being.

Have you ever had to pivot?
At the end of 2019, I released the devotional He Restoreth My Soul Triumph through Adversity. A plan was in place to begin hosting book signings to promote the book in the spring of 2020. In preparation for book signings, I ordered a surplus of books and secured facilities to use for the book signings.
When the world shut down, I had tons of books but no place to go and sell them. In order to recoup cost I began going live on social media selling the devotional and eventually sold out.
If you could go back, would you choose the same profession, specialty, etc.?
Working in the health/wellness industry is my calling. Although the path hasn’t been easy I would absolutely do it all over again. When you are operating in your gift it’s a feeling that is indescribably amazing. The bonus has been utilizing the gift of healing to share with others through speaking and writing.
