Harvard Educated Professor and Coach Unleashes a Powerful Exploration of Black Women’s Terror In Love And Revolutions In Life
Terror and love don’t typically go together in the same sentence but for more and more women the pairing has become a harsh reality. This is especially true in a post 9/11 world colliding with the Trump Era. In our day and age acts of emotional, psychological, and physical violence play out publicly (in the mainstream media), and privately (in intimate partnerships). In light of this, Jeanine Staples asks: How does terror in love impact the way women show up in relationships and how women operate in the world? Can we feel safe, healed, and whole in an age where relational and social terrors against Black women’s bodies and souls are common culture?
In Jeanine Staples’ debut book, The Revelations of Asher: Toward Supreme Love in Self, these questions are explored. Her extensive research reveals women’s fragmented selves and the five ways women live as lovers: Main Chick, Side Chick, Bonnie, Bitch, and Victim. Her two-part, online quiz can easily help women uncover which lover identity they take on in relationships. Her subsequent work ( The supreme love project ) shows women a more conscious way of loving and living in the world.
This isn’t a lovey-dovey take on relationships or “self-help”. It is a raw look at how women heal from deep traumas using the tools of emotional literacy and emotional justice. Jeanine is on a mission to teach women how to turn toward supreme love in self, a concept that goes beyond the limits of self-love.
As an alternative-response to the five toxic lover identities, Jeanine presents a new way of loving and living. She introduces the Supreme Lover Identity and illuminates its integral connection to social and emotional justice for and through Black women’s wisdom.
Although Jeanine champions women of color, her work is far-reaching. She currently has thousands of women, from 11 different countries, in her online community (www.thesupremeloveproject.com). Each member is embracing supreme love in self…learning to love supremely so she can live supremely. The Supreme Love Project was born out of this international response from women all over the world craving the tools to take ownership of their lover identities, and consciously seeking greater emotional justice for their lives and communities. Jeanine’s book presents rich examples of this real-life process. The Revelations of Asher is narrated by one of the fragmented selves: Asher. Asher is the questioning protagonist. She inquires and asks the tough questions women feel plagued with – Who am I? How did I get here? Why is this happening? What’s going to happen? What’s wrong with me? Other fragmented selves in the book include: Rajah (the voice of divine wisdom and peace), Maven (the voice of maternal critique), Nason (the voice of approval-addiction), Kagan (the voice of sex, sexuality, and materiality), Laish (the voice of self-doubt and timidity), and Sash (the voice of rage).

As a recovering “people-pleaser,” John had several addictions that he had to come face-to-face with: an addiction to attention, overthinking, validation, stress and drama, women, and to the past. After he had returned from Toronto, John had to face his deepest perceived fears head-on. He also needed to learn how to put himself first, to fill his cup of love before anyone else’s. And he had to begin to fulfil his soul’s purpose, which was to allow himself to fully express his emotions, feel his feelings, and be entirely vulnerable and transparent to all. The Universe gave him the opportunity to do that later that summer, to release everything that no longer served his highest and greatest good. He was spiritually stripped naked for a second time.
John is grateful to serve humanity as a spiritual guide and intuitive healer, using his intuition, life experience, and energy to offer guidance and healing energies to those in need, to hold the sacred space as a vessel of facilitating the healing process, to provide inspiration and motivation for those wishing to move forward in their life’s purpose, to help those who are facing the illusion of challenges, difficulties, and obstacles, and to pass along the knowledge that he has been humbled to learn on his own path of healing, the root of which is self-love and forgiveness, of oneself and others. It is his goal to have you feel, in every cell of your being, the stroke of divine perfection and unconditional love that you are.
