I found the timing of this conversation was an aligned one on the Full Moon for this month and on this particular date being the third year anniversary of a conscious choice to begin my surrendering to the expected death of my mother. While I did not get the chance to speak the surrender to… Read more

Movement + Connection
On February 14th I was happy to co-facilitate the Revolutionary Love workshop at Spice Harmony Yoga Studio in St. Georges, Grenada, W.I. Revolutionary Love was an interactive experience expressing and putting to practice love -in-action through community/partnered dialogues and free flow movement of the body. Witnessing one another’s stories shared over the themes of love,… Read more
Relating to Parts of Me. Of Us.
Recently I completed a mind-opening and powerful 7-week emotional healing and sacred business course. It was potent and deeply revealing. And I loved it. Some part inside of me had been yearning for an undefined locked door to be busted wide open. Over those 7 weeks, I had the opportunity to witness in the many… Read more
To Come Home
After moving around so much over the past few years – it has become a true gift to be living in a home where I feel at home within it • in more ways than one. Sometimes the most simple of things aren’t the easiest to receive or to come by. Sometimes in the moments when I need to –… Read more

Rewriting with Ancestral Residues?
The most prevalent emotional residue I have learned from my mother’s bloodline. Avoidance. The pushing an experience of pain away, separating ourselves from its perceived cause, telling ourselves it is ‘out there’ and is doing something ‘to me’ (the victim state). This avoiding of pain rather than opening oneself up to integrate into action that… Read more
?Mothers | The Unspokens.?
The one baby picture that my mother had of herself. And the only picture she had of her mother in her youth. This is all telling of the experiences on this side of my family. My grandmother did not raise my mother. She died a year before I was born. My first name was hers…. Read more
Begin Again (and again… and again)
Times have been testing lately. I have been called to lean more on others. This has felt as foreign territory. I am most used to being the one to hold another. This is the position I was well molded into growing up. In taking on a caregiving role early on for my mother, who had… Read more
Self-Love is Not Shortsighted
Self-Love is Not Shortsighted. I read this one day and it has resonated since. Self-love as it has been packaged these days unfortunately touches just the surface. This self love becomes an ideal that soothes our good intentioned yet fragile egos and leaves many with temporary fixes wondering where they have gone astray. Self love… Read more
