I've spent my entire life indulging in tiny little love stories. I've rummaged through them like a music fiend in a dusty shop full of classic vinyls. I've perused books, scouted magazine articles, and devoured screen plays knowing that my spirit animals were out there somewhere, equally obsessed with all things "love". Like me, they too were hanging on to Coltrane encores and Ndegeocello lyrics while waiting on their next fix... Writing the most perfect prose, and flawless verses, with this awe-inspiring love as their muse. Me and my soul tribe were searching, at times even clamoring, for this tiny little thing that was always abiding in the crevices of our own souls... waiting to be found, waiting to be cracked wide open to bask freely in the light. There is a West African Adinkra symbol - Odo Nnyew Fie Kwan - it means, "Love never loses its way home." Its a beautiful symbol of the enduring power and unimaginable capacity of real, untethered love; a reminder to trust in the unseen and in the deep possibilities that live somewhere on the horizon.
This space is an ode to Odo Nnyew Fie Kwan. It's a gathering of authentic lovers; those who know that love is the only true north. This space is an assembly of the wanderers who love to explore the world. This space is for folks who absolutely love good, well-sourced food. This space is for those committed to whole-body wellness. This space is for advocates who stand for their people, boldy, loudly, and by any means necessary. This space is for writers looking for a muse. This space is for my tribe of wild women, alchemists, healers, and warriors... The daughters of the oceans and the sisters of the rivers. I'm so incredibly lucky to find you here. Let's make magic!
