In The Black Sheep that Bloomed: Poetry Through Biopsychosocial Lens, Sistah Fran unapologetically shares her truth with hopes to spark conversations around the adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), unresolved generational trauma, dysfunctional family dynamics, disorganized attachment style, inner child wounds, and the lifelong journey of blooming to self-actualization.
