Gather
We do not heal alone.
We gather to remember what we already know.
This work lives in rooms — gardens, candlelit spaces, and quiet virtual gatherings — where reflection becomes movement. Each experience is intentionally small, designed for presence rather than performance.
The Weight of Waiting
A reflective retreat for those ready to stop slow dancing their lives.
The Weight of Waiting began on June 1, 2025, at Wave Hill in the Bronx.
Beneath wide skies and a canopy of trees overlooking the Hudson River, fourteen women gathered to examine where they had been postponing themselves. Not dramatically. Deliberately.
We began with a question:
If the average life expectancy of a Black woman is 78, and you are 50, how many summers remain?
When framed that way, waiting feels less philosophical and far more critical.
The day unfolded slowly. Guided writing. Paired conversation. Gentle movement. Breathwork. Time to arrive fully in the body without performing, producing, or proving anything.
Participants explored where they had been “slow dancing” in their lives — lingering in situations long after clarity had arrived. In naming those truths aloud, something softened. What had lived as unspoken weight began to loosen.
Grounded. Present. Unrushed.
The Weight of Waiting is not about rushing.
It is about recognizing when readiness has already arrived — and choosing to participate in your life instead of postponing it.
You do not enter alone.
The 2026 retreat is in development.
Space will remain intentionally limited.
The Listening Room
An intimate evening of narrated reflection, guided journaling, and quiet conversation.
No slides.
No performance.
Just voice and space.
The Listening Room exists for those moments when you need to pause long enough to hear yourself again. Through spoken reflection and structured stillness, participants are invited to examine what they already know but may have delayed honoring.
Clarity does not always need noise.
Sometimes it needs containment.
What Women Shared
From the Room
What lingered after the day unfolded.
I stopped waiting for clarity before allowing myself to move. Letting go didn’t feel dramatic — it felt like exhaling
The weight of old stories was keeping me from being free, open, and available to what was already possible
