Meet Falasha — The Story Behind Rooted in Presence

This study didn’t come from research. It came from a locked unit in a psych ward... Why? How did I end up here? I am the person everyone calls to get the answers for their business. I am the person who has it all together. I am the woman that knows how to uplift, speak life into her man, and aspire to be a Proverbs 31 woman who had a deep admiration and desire for Black Love.

Yet I was turning my then partner into my enemy... until I eventually destroyed everything and woke up in the hospital to the realization that I was still hurting from childhood traumas, and bleeding all over everyone who tried to love me.

Why was I so resistant to be vulnerable, and why something as beautiful as love is so triggering for me.

Then I realized it was not because of what was happening. But because of what I never had.

your Legacy. my Legacy. her Legacy

I didn’t grow up knowing what a father’s love looked like.
So when love showed up—steady, present, protective—I didn’t know how to trust it.

That absence shaped me. It shaped how I loved, how I parented, and how I saw myself.

But I realized something: we can’t break cycles we’ve never seen modeled.

That’s why this study needs you—the woman who had a healthy, loving relationship with her dad.

Your story helps us understand what’s possible. It offers a blueprint for healing and legacy-building.

Not for comparison.
But for clarity.
For restoration.

If your father was present, affirming, and consistent—biological, step, or chosen—we need your voice.
