She interviews African American community leaders who are making a difference in the community. She is also working on a book for African American children about Mindfulness, to give schoolkids a tool to combat stress from the inside out.
Monique is involved in many community projects, the most recent is an adjunct to a young African American women project whose goal is to build self-esteem and confidence and to develop skills necessary for the leadership of tomorrow.
