Health is your Greatest Asset...

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

DMarie Barclay is a lifelong educator, wellness advocate, and community leader whose journey spans Jamaica, Brooklyn, and beyond. A proud graduate of New York City public schools, she earned degrees from William Paterson University and Brooklyn College.

With more than 30 years of service in the New York City public school system, DMarie has dedicated her life to empowering students and communities through education. Her passion for education led her to East Africa, where she volunteered as a teacher with International Foundation for Education and Self-Help, an experience that inspired her first poetry and photography book, Face the Children.

Drawing from her personal journey through illness, recovery, and holistic healing, DMarie now inspires others to embrace self-empowerment, wellness, and self-advocacy in every aspect of life.

Fibroids, endometriosis, and cancer are no longer rare diagnoses, they are increasingly common realities for women in many communities. I know this firsthand because I have faced and overcome all three. That journey ignited my passion to help women reclaim their health and cultivate a balanced, empowered lifestyle.

Educating our daughters about their bodies, and the changes they will experience, while celebrating these natural transitions empowers them with confidence, knowledge, and self-respect.

Undiagnosed: Healed and Thriving weaves together personal insight and well-researched resources. Tools I wish I had before my diagnoses and learned during my healing process. This book is both a testimony and a guide, proving that prevention, healing, and renewal are possible. With the right knowledge, intentional self-care, and the courage to trust your own path, you don’t just survive, you will thrive.

EMPOWERING OUR DAUGHTERS


“Your period is a sacred reminder that your body is strong, wise, and beautifully fulfilling its natural design. Honor it as a sign of your power."TThe Pinkishe Foundation in India

”This book is designed to guide mothers, aunties, and women of all ages through topics that are often left unspoken. Too often, women navigate changes in their bodies without clear support or understanding. This introductory guide provides a strong foundation to help women better understand their health and well-being.

These messages emphasizes the importance of preparing our daughters with knowledge about their bodies before they begin their menstrual cycle; which empowers them with confidence by having a deeper sense of self.

Why does this book matter?
  • Some of our daughters did not receive early education about their bodies, nutrition, and menstruation.

  • Many people live with symptoms that go unheard. Many women

    push through pain while still showing up for work, family, and life.

  • Many survivors are told the disease is lifelong and that medication is the sole way to manage it.

  • This book speaks to those realities.

  • It is also for:

  • · Women who need information on preventative measures

  • · Women navigating endometriosis, or fibroids

  • · Professionals balancing wellness and responsibility

  • · Anyone seeking encouragement, clarity, and hope on their healing journey

January 2026 - Participated in the FRESH Book Fair in Daytona Beach Florida. As a first-time participant at the F.R.E.S.H. Book Festival, I had the privilege of speaking on panels and sharing my book. Celebrating 15 years of promoting “Literacy is a Legacy,” the festival brought together inspiring authors and book lovers. It was an unforgettable and rewarding experience.

It was a great experience sharing my book on panel discussions about health.

Networking with so many seasoned and amazing authors and people in the creative industry was definitely a highlight.
