Growing up as a first generation West Indian (Caribbean) American, I didn’t always understand the complexities of what being a Black American entailed. Caribbean culture was steeped in its own trauma that I was working to heal from (trauma that I didn’t realize was quite similar to the Black American experience), with its own set […]
What is A Mantra? Stemming from Hindu and Buddhist practices, mantras are traditionally sounds (and words) that are repeated to help build concentration, focus and confidence while promoting peace and ease. The repetitive nature of these sounds and words are typically used in conjunction with a meditation or yoga practice. Here are some mantras to […]
When we are intentional about what we feed our minds, bodies and souls, we are honoring ourselves. We are tapping into the divine beauty, power, magick and art that runs through our veins. That in itself is a sacred practice. A ritual. Consciously choosing to adorn yourself with jewels, clothing, oils, scents etc., allows us to […]
Whether you be a newbie or someone a bit more seasoned, reading is [fun]damental (see what I did there, lol) and a big part of gaining overstanding and perspective – especially as it relates to something as important as spirituality.

I’ve thought about 2018, a lot. I guess I keep going back to it because there were so many lessons that I learned during the latter part of the year. As I’ve written about before, one major lesson I learned is that words truly mean everything. So with that I say, 2018 was the year […]
Would mean to look back at all that was … and wasn’t. Words are so powerful and I have been speaking what I perceived as horridness this year into existence. So much so, that it has become me. It’s no doubt that this year was hard for me. But so many good things happened this […]
Journeying through entrepreneurship has been the most stressful and rewarding thing that I’ve done thus far. Networking, collaborating, finally participating in pop ups -all in the name of building my business and brand. There’s really no feeling like it. But the best part has been connecting with like minded people. This sense of solidarity and […]
It’s breast cancer awareness month! Since I last blogged so much has happened -which I’ll probably do an extensive post about later. But for now, I have some pretty exciting news! This month, my business will be donating 40% of what we earn to the Painted Pink For Breast Cancer Org!ย Yesterday, I sent out […]
