On the beautiful Friday evening of June 27, 2025 at Cool J’s Premium Water Ice in Bear, Delaware, we introduced our new venture, Feel the Future, Community Health Coaching & Consulting LLC. The energy, connection, and purpose filled the space with something even sweeter than water ice. It was filled with community.

Soft Launch Highlights

After checking in with Eliza Hildreth and receiving swag bags, the program began with host, Tia Hargrove of Cool Js and inspiring words from two special guests, Michele Whetzel, author of So You Want to Start a Non-Profit…Now What? and Non-Profit Set-Up Simplified and Robin Sephes, founder of Prayzercize. Both shared their personal connection to David and Sharece and shared a bit about their mission-driven work.

Next, we had an interactive round of community health trivia using Mentimeter featuring questions about ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences), high blood pressure, food facts, and physical wellness facts. Angela Taylor and Raejene Jenkins were the top two winners!

After, we shared a bit about our background story and the motivation behind launching Feel the Future, Community Health Coaching & Consulting LLC. From overcoming adversity and health scares to finding our voice through lived experience, we talked about how those challenges shaped the work we’re doing now.

We introduced our services, which include workshops, programs and packages for: workplace wellness, capacity building and creative programming which are all designed to support the well-being of both staff and the communities they serve.

Throughout the evening, we gathered feedback and had open dialogue, learning what resonated most with our audience and how we can continue to meet real needs.

The evening wrapped with a sparkling juice toast, mess-free streamers, and some special giveaways from Queendom Care, Rockford Center, New Castle Chamber of Commerce, Dill Dinkers Pickle Ball, YMCA Delaware, Author - Michele Whetzel, Cool J's Premium Water Ice and self-care gift baskets from us. Some folks stayed after for more mingling, munching, and meaningful conversation.

Thank You, Truly.

We walked away from our soft launch feeling affirmed, encouraged, and more motivated than ever. This isn’t just a business—it’s a mission rooted in healing, hope, and humanity. We’re honored to be on this journey and even more honored to walk it with so many of you by our side.

We are deeply grateful to every single person who came out to support us. Your presence meant the world—whether you were a longtime friend, a colleague in the field, or someone curious about the work we do. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for believing in us and showing up for this milestone moment.

With love and endless appreciation,

David Hannah & Sharece Sellem-Hannah
