I can’t describe how perfect the final show was. I deserved it. It was a reminder of why I started SYM and what the podcast will stand for years from now.
I believe that the live show was a portal to a new beginning, and a reflection of what I’ve shed in order to step into a new identity.
Society continues to shift in previously unimaginable ways. An audience member asked a question and by the time we had left the venue, the things I’d said had started happening. Tarot or not, some things you can see coming if you pay attention to the change in the wind.
Those of us who were present at the show and that includes virtually, bear witness to the community we are inevitably forming. This community isn’t based on clout that some aim to get from their proximity to visible Black women, it’s about doing the work. The nasty, ugly work of compassion towards our own shadow. Many are called to do the work, few choose to actually do it.

Oh and of course thank you to the people whose inner demons are stirred by me showing up in the world as I am and striving for what I believe in; even you are used to show God’s greatness in my life and the ancestors’ devotion to protecting me always. Straws for your head tops for an eternity.
