There’s a certain kind of magic in returning home and realizing you’ve grown into the person your younger self hoped you’d be. Dominica feels different now. More tender, more honest, more mine. These moments, these memories, these views… they’re stitching me back together. And my heart is full. The journey of my life is shared in The Secret of Things, a book about pain, resilience, and finding peace after the storm. 📖 Get your copy today: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FD8Y2Q2VMy #dominica #dominicans #creole #creolefestival #créole #creoleculture #creoleday #creolelove #african #africanculture #independeceday #dominicaindependence #friends #fun #enjoy #life #funtimes #explorepage #explore #JoanPendergrass #TheSecretOfThings

The streets of Dominica came alive with the rhythm of our heritage✨ From music and dance to color and laughter, Jounen Kwéyòl reminds us that culture isn’t just celebrated. It’s lived. Grateful to witness the heartbeat of my island in every drumbeat, every smile, every step.

🎙️ A Wonderful Morning at DBS Radio 🌿 For those of you who did not have the opportunity to tune in to DBS Radio this morning — here’s your chance to listen to Creole Heartbeat with the one and only Wadix. It was such a pleasure sitting down with him — a conversation that was not only meaningful and reflective, but also deeply healing and inspiring. I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to share my journey, my thoughts, and a piece of my heart with all of you. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who tuned in and listened live — your love, encouragement, and thoughtful messages mean more than words can express. The program runs for about one hour, so please take a moment to listen to it in its entirety, at your own leisure — it’s quite an engaging and uplifting conversation. For those who missed it, I’m sharing the DBS Radio link and this video footage here on my page so you can be part of the experience. My book, The Secret of Things, is available now on Amazon — a reflection of life, faith, and the beauty of perseverance. 📖 Order on Amazon 🌐 Visit: www.joanpendergrass.com 📧 Email: joan@joanpendergrass.com 🦋✌🏽❤️ #DBSRadio #CreoleHeartbeat #Wadix #Gratitude #HealingConversation #Dominica #TheSecretOfThings #JoanPendergrass #Faith #Inspiration

✨ Good Morning My Beautiful People ✨ Today I feel light, grateful, and full of testimony. As I step into this new day dressed in cream and gold, my heart is shining even brighter than my smile. In The Secret of Things, I wrote about a moment when joy finally returned to me. I said, “I learned to celebrate the small mercies because they were proof that I was still standing and still becoming.” That truth is alive in me this morning. Life has taken me through valleys, but it has also lifted me to mountaintops I never imagined. Every season has shaped my strength, my grace, my faith, and my ability to love myself deeper. Today I celebrate that. I celebrate God’s goodness. I celebrate the joy that keeps finding me again and again. Thank you for walking this journey with me. If my story inspires you, I invite you to read my memoir The Secret of Things. 📖 The Secret of Things on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FD8Y2Q2V 🌺 Visit my website: joanpendergrass.com Love to all Joan Pendergrass 🦋✨

As my time in Dominica comes to a close, my heart is full in ways I haven’t felt in years. Returning home has been more than a visit — it has been a homecoming of the spirit. The welcome I received from my community, my town of Portsmouth, and my fellow Dominicans touched me deeply. You embraced me with open arms, open hearts, and genuine pride. I felt seen, celebrated, and supported by the very people who witnessed my beginnings. Sharing The Secret of Things here, where my story truly started, has been one of the greatest honors of my life. To stand before my people, to speak my truth, and to know that it resonated that is a blessing I do not take lightly. I could feel the love not only for me, but also for my late husband, Teddy Pendergrass. His music still lives in your hearts, and through your joy, your singing, and your memories, I felt his presence so strongly. Dominica reminded me that his legacy continues, not just abroad, but right here at home. To my fellow women thank you for your support, your encouragement, and for walking this journey with me through The Secret of Things. Your strength, your stories, your voices, and your courage mirror so much of my own path. Every embrace, every word of affirmation, and every sister-to-sister moment reminded me why I wrote this memoir. You have lifted me, inspired me, and stood with me in ways that touched my soul. I am honored to share this journey with you. This trip showed me that I have come full circle. I arrived as the little girl from Portsmouth who carried many wounds, stories, and dreams. I leave as a woman standing firmly in her purpose healed, strengthened, and ready for the next chapter that God has prepared for me. My journey is far from over. In fact, I believe it is just beginning. Thank you, Dominica, for reminding me who I am. Thank you for lifting me up. Thank you for loving me so openly. I go forward with renewed purpose, guided by faith, and anchored in the love of my people. On to the next chapter with gratitude, strength, and endless hope. With love For Dominica and people everywhere peace, and love to all — Joan Pendergrass 🦋
