Welcome to Living Waters…
a travel journal, a healing diary and a sacred space to reflect on the flow of life.
Here, I write from the road — weaving insight with movement, ritual, and the wisdom that comes when we slow down. Whether it’s a massage in the mountains, a bowl of fruit in the sun, or a truth rising up while walking solo in a new city — this is where it all lives.
These posts are love notes from the journey — with travel as both literal path and living metaphor. Movement — toward presence, becoming, home, and the possibility of collective transformation through individual well-being.
I carry with me years of work rooted in community, advocacy, and collective care. As I evolve, that work evolves too—becoming more embodied, more personal, and more spiritually grounded.
As a Black woman, my presence in rest, in reflection, and in reclamation is not separate from that work—it is the work. This blog is a space where I let my evolution speak. Where healing is both personal and political. Where the everyday becomes sacred, and the sacred becomes a guide toward a more just, more whole world.

Losing my Religion
The Sacred Shedding of who I Thought I had to be.
Packing up my apartment wasn’t just about storage bins and moving boxes — it was a reckoning. I sorted through decades of memories, awards, identities I no longer wanted to carry. This post isn’t about losing faith. It’s about shedding the need to perform, produce, and prove.
To make space for who I’m becoming, I had to release who I thought I had to be.

I Sat in Silence
The Moment I Chose Myself.
Seven hours on a couch I was about to give away — staring, scribbling, unraveling. Not because I was brave, but because I was tired. Something in me whispered: stop performing. Start listening. And when I did, the call came — not just to travel, but to return to myself.
