It’s my birthday and I am raising funds for a 7 month sabbatical to be spent traveling to and throughout Africa, Korea, Australia, Japan, Cuba, and throughout the Caribbean islands.

It’s my birthday and I am inviting you, the world, and the general public of all assembled here in witness, towards my deepest desire for sabbatical; towards my what ifs (as guided through my Element X via Seeda School).
Why now?
My lease is coming to a close and it feels like some symbolic closure, some departure from earthly attachment in the ways I have clinged to over the past 10 years. I have navigated institution after institution, industry after industry, and now I want to try a new thing because I value myself differently.
I have no desire to work myself to more exhaustion just to say I did it or just to feel validated from systems and institutions whose only end is burnout and death. I want to be well and made whole for my future so that I might be of better service to my humanity and therefore the world.
What if I dared to take flight and stay in the wind for the first time in my life instead of searching for another 1 year lease to occupy momentarily towards some illusion of housing security? What if I went back to school (Fall 2024)? What if, before doing so, I traveled the world for 7 months taking in space after space, environment after environment, doing the artist thing, the curious thing, the Black trans feminist thing? What if i took a chance on what makes me uniquely me?
I am love by nature. An artist, philosopher, intellectual, mystic, and writer seeking to make sense of the wholeness of who I am. I can only do that striving to be well.
Won’t you celebrate with me?
