If there are any creators, musicians artists, tbh anyone local interested in Brainstorming an event to alleviate food/water scarcity for families affected in Gaza Strip I'd truly love to get together so please DM Me. I don't want to Moralize these items (just a care package w/I propaganda) or Commodify this event as A Savior Moment so I won't be creating social media content personally. I would like to find out how we can maximize its use and help locally affected people as well. The systems that have affected families over there are similarly affecting families here. I'm not gonna say I have any clue to how they feel, outside of needing access to food, water and being validated in their humanity.

As the seasons change I've decided to make some changes as well and I am officially making the steps to offer services as Erie's local Q***r and Neurodivergent Death Care Provider of Color. my first step is to provide a a space for a group forum and look into setting up in one-on-one consultations and private services to do so I have a checklist that I need to conquer one I need to find a physical space where we can meet for a group to I would like to find a local graphic designer to design my logo for death speaks and help create my business cards looking into a good service for a online work in group meetings that I can make sure it is as inclusive and accessible for anyone that wants to participate.

Once I have these oil settled DeathSpeaks will be open! I will be continuing my education as an art therapist also. I look forward to having all of you join me on this journey I am extremely nervous but extremely excited for this next phase.if any of you beautiful human beings have lead or advice tips or just kind words go ahead and comment down below share like support and I will be with all of you soon.

Mabrika! so I definitely suck at getting around to social media stuff but I have been over busy with my sophomore undergrad year, health, family stuff and work so I'm trying to be better about not isolating and interacting more even if it's only online. but hey good news is because of my 3.65 GPA I've been awarded to scholarships equaling about $3,000 this year and I am looking to continue to applying for the master's program for art therapy so I can provide counseling through art as well as death care.I want to just let you know I'm figuring out making business cards and I would love to commission someone to create me a logo I just got to figure out what I want. but I am currently available for death work including like your concerns questions advice support whether it be for yourself your loved ones non-human animal Companions I am available to scheduling Appointments.

Love and Solidarity

Taking steps to learn, decolonize and evolve as I continue my journey as an and I want to provide a space for those of us in the Diaspora and Beyond, from backgrounds of Racialized and Marginalized Communities, who may need help scrubbing away the WhiteWashing and internalization of Hatred we grew up with and connect with our heritage to Ultimately Be at Peace with who we are and who we are becoming..to then have a and traditions that represent our . I'm hoping to combine Sacred Plants, Art and other services. I'm super excited for these books I recently got by and

Laying the foundation down for my overall practice as a full-spectrum Doula and holistic communal Healer starts here. I am a certified end-of-life Doula through and I couldn't be more grateful to Alua and everybody with Going with Grace! I am on to the next chapter where I will be studying at Edinboro University. I will aquire degree in art therapy and move forward to grief and bereavement, eventually becoming a full-blown Thanatologist. I also will be looking into certification in Entheogenic Therapy and Ancestral Herbalism. Through all of these practices that are so integral and intensive, we need to do, our level of Comfort being present and knowing intimately Our Mortality. We will die eventually it's not indefinite you know.. questionable thing it's definitive like we are dying we're going to die and how are you going to be able to be fully present in these Milestone Moments and Sacred Traditions.
