While Jacquilen's story was already quite personal, we still thought we'd ask her the five questions we like to ask all our contributing writers.
1. If you could be doing anything in the world at this moment, what would it be? Studying in the Far East. Studying their history, culture, food, etc.
2. If you had to change your name, what would you change it to and why? Many people ask me about my name. My name reflects the history of my lineage. My lineage on this land predates slavery. I am a Moor. I am free and sovereign. When this was revealed to me, I corrected the spelling of my name to reflect this. Therefore, I wouldn't change a thing. Jacquilen Fostor is my birth name. Tomas is my married name. Ali is my noble Moorish title.
3. What is the best piece of advice you were ever given? Enjoy your life. Always be willing to learn something new especially if it differs from your own perspective.
4. Do you have a favorite personal saying or mantra? I love myself unconditionally. I forgive unconditionally.
5. Why BodyTalk, Access or the Life Sciences? BodyTalk, et al., has helped me to understand "why" I do what I do and has given me the tools to change me--to help me grow and evolve. This has helped me to help others. It also supports the tag line for my practice, "Become The Master Of Your Own Healing." |
