My mission is to provide a safe space, guidance, and support—Black and Brown communities– to explore and grow in polyamory.
Are you limiting yourself by searching for “that” person? I have personally been successful developing relationships organically. Which means I do not search for anyone. I relish getting to know people. Some energies I gravitate to, and I just want to know who they are. Sometimes it develops into a crush and sometimes it does not. Some become long term or deep friendships, some do not. I have found that leaving myself open to connections results in profound friendships as well as romantic relationships.
Imagining a world where people freely live according to their values and boundaries. Envisioning a safe space where Black and Brown individuals can navigate life openly, without judgment or shame.

She has a way of connecting with people, forming relationships organically with anyone from any walk of life! You know the expression “it’s not black and white, there’s shades of gray.” Where I see one side or the other, there have been many times where she has shown me everything in-between! She has this uncanny ability to see and relate to any and all types of scenarios. She makes me see things in a way I would not have on my own. I truly value her for this!! – Monique
Ya has been a wonderful supporter of mine. I am able to bounce ideas and thoughts off on her because she is a kind and compassionate listener. When she notices an area of my own limitation, she is able to gently point out opportunities where I hinder my own success. I always look forward to talking to her. She has been practicing polyamory thoughtfully and successfully for so long, I always know I’ll receive vetted advice.
That said, one of the most powerful things I’ve learned is that it/life/relationships are rarely perfect and that my life is a wonderful work in progress. – Erika
