Jatoyia Armour
Author. Advocate. Founder.


Real talk about systems, identity, and finding your voice.
My work lives at the intersection of advocacy and lived experience. Through ROAR at the Table and Bariatric Paths, I create space for honest conversations, support, and change.
Different paths.
The same commitment to voice, dignity, and healing.
Roar at the Table
Bariatric Paths
ROAR at the Table is a deeply personal story about advocating for my son within the special education system and refusing to stay silent when his needs were overlooked. From that experience, I created a survival guide for parents navigating complex systems, offering practical tools, language, and strategies to help them advocate for their own child with confidence and clarity.
Bariatric Paths was born from my own 170-pound weight loss journey and the need for a space that felt honest, supportive, and real. After navigating surgery, mindset shifts, and life beyond the scale, Bariatric Paths became a place for community, conversation, and connection for people finding their way through surgical and non-surgical weight loss without shame or judgment.
Work With Me
My work is rooted in lived experience. I speak and collaborate in spaces where parents are navigating school systems that won’t listen, and where people are rebuilding their lives after major weight loss.
Whether the conversation is about advocating for your child or finding support through any weight loss journey, I bring honesty, clarity, and real-world perspective.
