WHO IS HONEST AM?
.jpg)
I was born and raised in Detroit, a city of full of soul and stories- much like myself! Growing up, I always felt a pull towards deeper meaning and understanding the spiritual threads woven through everyday life. After graduating from Hampton University in Business Administration, I found myself balancing two worlds: by day, a Project Accountant navigating numbers and deadlines; by night a writer and visionary creating transformative content that blends spirituality, personal growth and storytelling.
My words has been featured on platforms like XONecole, where I've written about Black culture, spirituality and powerful figures like Monique and Rihanna. But my heart lies in projects like Honestly Sis, Dear Showrunners and Honestly Pop Culture Therapy- all dedicated to truth-telling, healing and spiritual awakening through storytelling.
When I am not writing or creating content, you can find me practicing yoga, pulling tarot cards or walking my adorable fur baby, Cudi P. I currently reside on Detroit's Lower Eastside where I am working on my first metaphysical thriller- a project that weaves my love for storytelling with spiritual insight!
At one time, I was lost, unsure of my path and purpose. Now, I am awake and unafraid to speak my truth. Like the shepherd in The Alchemist, I'm on a sacred journey to live out my soul's desires. I openly share this journey to inspire others to become the alchemist of their own lives. Because if I can transform my life, then it proves that the impossible is simply a story waiting to be rewritten. My hope is that my words and work move through the world like wildfire- awakening others to seek their truth, to remember their power and to help transform a once dark world into light.
Knowing though I may obtain fame and riches
none of it matters, if I am not rich in spirit and love.
And so it is, Aṣẹ!
