Work With Me
When you hire me...
you are committing to the powerfully disruptive process of using your voice to disrupt stagnancy with clarity, specificity and commitment. With that, comes the innate process of alignment in a conscious way. My curiosity invites play for your nervous system (or the backbone of your company). We evoke what seeks to be known in a very raw and gentle way. My lighthearted and compassionate approach creates a brave space for the inevitable shift to be sustainable. The outcome measure is sustainable well being.

Engagements
READ THOROUGHLY: You can easily find someone to talk at an audience. You hire me to listen intentionally and cultivate a LIVE experience that invites people feel deeply, engage curiosity and shift according to their own invitation. I enjoy being hired for fireside chats, engaging conversations that invite folks into the depth of presence, and breath + sound experiences to engage your community/company and your audiences.
I have a unique ability to create experiences that ground presence as the big idea of the activation is engaged.
What I do NOT find joy in: offering quick tips/tricks, experiences that lack the engagement component
Some of my favorite engagements have been with The Village Market ATL, Our Village United, BGIO, OMNoire, 21 Ninety, Google, Essence Fest, and Facebook.
WAYS TO WORK WITH ME
eleven forty two
eleven forty two is the practice of being here. This practice invites us to take a seat as we liberate the body and invite the imagination of the mind. I enjoy being with individuals that are ready to engage in the powerful practice of release, pause, and rebirth. One to one practice with me creates a private and consistent practice around being with what seeks to be known through each moment (one to one practice is only available to those that have been in the group practice 6+ months, you can join here).
Note: I am NOT a therapist (nor do I desire to be). As well, in this work, I function as a spiritual medium in assignment with those who called this experience in. As a mentor, I do not function as a coach.
Partnerships
READ THOROUGHLY: I enjoy partnering with organizations that are committed to the sustainable well being of their audience. Being an active leader in the strategy and implementation of programming that intentionally meets the well being needs of those that are served in a sustainable way brings me great joy.
As a partner, you must trust that I know how to engage with my audience.
What I do NOT find joy in: producing general content/quick tips & tricks, experiences that lack LIVE engagement.
Interviews
I am always excited to join in conversation about the nervous system, liberation, imagination and the intricacies of collective healing. Some of my most notable interview experiences have been with Black Girl in OM, Therapy for Black Girls, Shaping the Shift podcasts, Forbes and Essence Magazine.

Consulting/Teaching
I enjoy nourishing that which is ready for growth. From community platform learning to medical schools, I believe in and practice liberatory and imaginative learning. As a consultant, I deeply enjoy grounding and nourishing rooted intentions into fruitful and dynamic experiences for communities. As an imaginative and liberatory facilitator (or teacher as called in the academy), I am delighted to nourish participants' geniuses.
Some of my favorite topics are nervous system function and integration, body wisdom, mindfulness, sound and breathwork alchemy. I am most often engaged by medical schools, coaches and therapists for my work with client relationship and practice building.
Some of my favorite experiences have been with Emory University, University of Education - Ghana, Black Freedom Collective, and DePaul University
