Does Everyone Really Need Healing?

In this first episode of W AP KOUTE M M AP KOUTE W, I dive into a question many of us wrestle with: Does everyone really need healing?Healing isn’t just about fixing what’s broken — it’s about growth, awareness, and releasing what no longer serves us. Some wounds are clear, like trauma, grief, or loss. Others are invisible, shaped by what we’ve witnessed, absorbed, or carried secondhand without even realizing it. I also share my personal story of grief and how it uncovered hidden wounds I thought I had already made peace with.As Haitians, we carry another layer of healing — the collective.
