honey, this was created for us.

For years, I found myself accustomed to creating physical spaces where there was soulful eye contact, lively synergy, great food, and folks who asked, “honey, do you need a hug today?" As an old school individual, it was natural for me to show up in this way. The modalities of creating deeper connections through social sites had its moments for me.

So when I received the blessing to teach internationally, I quickly realized the challenges of staying connected with my community. I couldn't believe that now my main source of interconnecting with loved ones shifted strictly towards social sites. On top of that, I began to notice the social media pressures and falseness that were unnoticed before.

During that time, I was gratefully featured in The National Geographic women’s issue with a great deal of phenomenal earth womxn who were highlighted for their powerful community work. This opportunity opened a portal for virtually connecting me with amazing womxn around the world,  like Turkey, Switzerland, and Bulgaria to name a few. Each of them shared so much of themselves with me and about the issues that were taking place in their communities that felt similar to my own. This helped me to realign my focus to ”why” we connect with each other and allow the ”how” and ”what” to float naturally.

Sweet Herbal Honey is holding space in that focus with some herbal tea on the side. We're creating space for interconnection, sharing our wisdom gained from our experiences and knowing that when we feel inspired to share, we are also inspiring others. This beautiful space is a community-led platform (hive) for us to share our experiences, advice, healing services, upcoming events and whatever we feel; while collaborating with each other and honestly exploring ourselves with passion.
