Welcome
Reflecting Joy is more than a community; it’s a sacred space built on core values of wholeness, authenticity, connection, and joy. Created for Black women of all faiths who are ready to see God everywhere—including within themselves—Reflecting Joy honors the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. Here, we blend African-centered principles, spiritual practices, and holistic tools that help us nurture joy as a foundation for growth.
At Reflecting Joy, we believe in the power of community as a catalyst for deep healing. Our gatherings encourage you to embrace all parts of yourself, see your experiences mirrored in others, and honor your unique journey. Whether through classes, intensives, or immersive retreats, this community is here to hold space for your healing, celebrate your growth, and uplift you as you step into the next chapter of your life with courage and intention.

Classes
Our classes offer a focused space for Black women to explore personal growth, healing, and self-discovery in community. Each class is rooted in spiritual and holistic practices, guiding you to connect with your inner self, address life’s challenges, and build tools for resilience. Through interactive sessions, you’ll engage in learning, reflection, and practical exercises designed to support your journey and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
Intensive
The A.W.A.K.E.N. weekend is a powerful, 4-day in-person experience, usually held over a long weekend, designed for Black women who feel stuck in a cycle and sense there’s something “missing” that could help them truly move forward. This intensive journey is about either jump-starting your healing or expanding your capacity for growth, so you can enter the next phase with greater resilience and clarity.
Using my A.W.A.K.E.N. method, we’ll spend our time together connecting with and understanding your pain, identifying the tools that best support you, and making commitments that will anchor your path forward. Each day is enriched with daily movement, sound healing, individual and group sessions, and sacred spiritual experiences, creating a supportive space to nurture every part of you. This intensive is more than a retreat; it’s a grounding experience that connects you to your true self and opens up new possibilities for lasting change.

Immersion
Since 2022, our annual immersive experiences have offered 5+ days in beautiful locations outside the US, bringing together no more than 20 Black women. These gatherings are crafted to encourage deep self-exploration, using the lenses of fulfillment, restoration, and shared strength. Each experience centers around connection and self-discovery, providing space to release, renew, and embrace what nourishes your spirit. Together, we create a supportive environment where joy and wholeness become a lived experience, fostering bonds that uplift each woman as she steps into her fullest self.
