From all my worlds seeking a place to collide.

Today I stand having competed over 49,000 hours in this craft as an herbalist and healer. This pales in comparison to the lifetimes of this work and the eons of ancestral knowledge in my lineage that unlocks in my DNA each moment I gain more awareness. They say mastery is 10,000 hours.....

My neighborhood green grocer. I'm making soup tonight and each time I visit here I'm reminded of this being one of the first place my parents introduced me to when we immigrated at 14. It was the closest they had to the stalls and stalls of vendors in the markets of Georgetown. My mom would tell me each time we visited that you can have $20 and still feed your family cultural and healthy foods! It stayed with me to this day! #cultualfoodsarehealthy #carribbeaninmyblood #cookingwiththeancestors (at Flatbush, Brooklyn)

The half year mark of the solstice is the perfect time to examine this year's goals. Recommit to and expand on them, celebrate the ones fulfilled and get super clear about what needs an infusion of Grace, allowing the next half of this incredible year to be substantial! #sacredvibesapothecary #sacredvibeshealing #visionarylife
