Meet Dr. Alisha Reed
Pharmacy & Wellness Expert
I’m Dr. Alisha Reed, and your self-care prescription will be ready in about 15 minutes.
Because most of the time, we just need 15 minutes to do one of life’s most important jobs – take care of ourselves.
And trust me, when it comes to self-care – I exist to fill or dispense the right prescription.
Ever since I was seven years old, I’ve had my eyes set on being a pharmacist. Someone whose main purpose is to make others feel better, holistically. And that’s just what I did.
As a pharmacist for over 20 years, I’ve dedicated my life to creating a space for my patients to be seen, heard, and helped. As a self-care strategist – I’m committed to doing just the same for women – cultivating a space where you are seen, heard, and helped – no matter your phase of life. Word on the street is that a pharmacist is one of the most trusted medical professionals, and I plan to keep that same energy.
Why this work, And why now? Simply because taking care of others is my default. As I enter into this new “era” of my life – my 45th birthday – I want it to be clear that I advocate for Black women to take care of themselves – loudly and intentionally. I know firsthand what it means to have to take care of myself before I can even think of taking care of others. And I want to share that knowledge with Black women in all eras of their lives. Time is not always on our side and as we get older, our needs and focuses change. I want to equip my girls, no matter the era they find themselves in, with the knowledge and space to put their metaphorical face mask on first.
