Life Came For Me

The Conversation Series

"Life Came for Me" is a conversation series hosted by the Founder & CEO of TMWEI, Ms Terrie Williams. 

The primary goal is to educate, empower and encourage.

Life Came for Me was originally called "Covid Came for Me", during the peak of the pandemic Ms Terrie wanted to find a way to bring her community together and keep them informed about the ever changing status and affects of covid. She would host regular zoom call bringing on doctors, local government officials and members of the community to connect, discuss and share updates around covid. 

As time went on she realized covid isn't the only thing the community needs a space for conversation for. There are so many adversities of life that people can connect around. Thus elevating Covid Came for Me to Life Came for Me.

Life Came for Me now covers many different areas of life that can cause hardship. Whether it be physical, mental, financial or other hardships, Ms Terrie intends to hold space for conversations around these topics. As always, part of these conversations will include bringing on esteemed guests to add value and perspective to the conversations. This may be a doctor or even a survivor of the hardship. The goal is to bring attention to the facts and the realities of all that our community is facing today.
