Meet Jumi — The Storyteller. 🌸

Creative. Thoughtful. Expressive. Purpose-driven.

Jumi has a gift for turning thoughts into words, moments into meaning, and ideas into something people can connect with. Whether she is writing creatively, sharing spoken word, encouraging someone, or bringing structure to an idea, she uses her voice to inspire, communicate, and make others feel seen.

Her current season of blooming is all about consistency, discipline, and growing deeper in the Word of God.

And her superpower? Using words to encourage, connect, and give meaning to the thoughts and experiences that are sometimes difficult to express.

Jumi is a reminder that our voices matter. When surrendered to God, our words can become instruments of encouragement, connection, and purpose.

🌺 Words with purpose. A voice with meaning. Same girl. Bigger purpose.

Welcome Jumi, The Storyteller, and let her know what part of her journey resonates with you!

We had a great time at “Jesus & Juice” post a phenomenal @sistasinsales conference led by the Bronx’ very own @chantelmedia ! We are proud community partners. So many Believers were in the room at the conference and we got to reflect, pray, and testify over some healthy juices to end a high impact day. Shout out to our dear sisters @itsthatclaudes and @kaylapersondesigns for coordinating!

Want to stay in touch? Join our mailing list and get invites for our weekly Thursday fellowships at 12pm EST, where we connect with God and each other.

APPLICATIONS OPEN AUGUST 10TH!

Are you down to embark on a journey with me?

The UnGrateful Black Artist Institute is a 12-week/33 session online course I have been dreaming up both consciously and unconsciously since I decided to embody the name UnGrateful Black Artist (UGBA) myself.

—This is the institute's 2nd year!

WHAT TO EXPECT

This course explores what it means to be an UnGrateful Black Artist. Since adopting this name, I've found that many people hear "UnGrateful Black Artist"—& think "ungrateful Black person." Which—may or may not be true—regardless, this response is indicative of how Black people (particularly in this country) are seen. When we dare to demand more—a "more" that is usually aligned with verifiable evidence of our actions' positive impact on the environment around us—we are considered "ungrateful." This word is often used as a leash to keep us tame and small.

& yet we press on!

In this institute, we embrace the "ungrateful." Within these 12 weeks, I will be sharing stories from my over 15-year experience being a professional artist. I will invite friends/colleagues into conversations/panels surrounding what happened when they decided to be "ungrateful" in the face of art institutions wishing to smother their light. We will have reading and written assignments—as well as projects that touch the realms of dance, performance, and visual art. By the end of our time together: one goal is for each participant to leave more assured and confident in what they bring as an artist to this world.

Another goal: for each participant to leave with a renewed understanding of the importance of rigor, discipline, and devotion to one's craft.

APPLICATIONS OPEN AUGUST 10th!

Grateful for this day! Partnering with Ivory on Park and The Ariyo Group to curate a poetry and wellness experience was rooted in one goal: creating space for healing, expression, and community. Thank you to everyone who came out!

Mother Wounds Night Class presented by @creativesoulhouse will feature my mother as a panelist offering a word.

Here's a clip of her a few years ago sharing with me a poem she wrote about relationship dynamics. Yes, I indeed "get it from my mama."

This is going to be such a special night. I look forward to seeing you there. Peep the @creativesoulhouse IG bio for ticket information.
