MARKETTE

Remember to take care of your heart ❤️. It’s the only one you’ve got and Dr. Yolanda here shared with me that Black women are 2x as likely to die from heart disease and stroke. That’s enough for me to want to take more walks, drink more green smoothies and say deuces ✌🏾 to stressful people and situations. 🧘🏾‍♂️ Follow her @dryolandamd for more healthy inspiration. #hearthealth #cardiovascularhealth at WUSA 9
