She is a native New Yorker, born in the Bronx, and grew up in suburb New Rochelle. Greatly loved and rooted in an exemplary matriarchal household emanating southern hospitality, freedom of choice, family, community, self-care, and sisterhood.
A story like her's is a very common and uncommon one. Every summer visited the south to visit kinfolk, like most African Americans, with her master teacher great-grandmother Emma Mae Wright. Everyday learned yoga, nutrition, audience presentation, and a new book from her master teacher grandmother Marie Robinson.
Her personal journey with eczema, greeting trees, spiders, healthy living, healing modalities, teaching, social activism, birthing, and thirst for knowledge has molded my mkunga bui bui calling. Sankofa is a mkunga bui bui (spider midwife) purpose-bound to illuminate the web of African healing and birthing.
Graduated and received a bachelor of science degree in business administration from Marist College on the majestic Hudson River. Honored and fortunate to receive a master of arts degree in health arts and sciences from Goddard College during the COVID-19 pandemic. Sankofa also is a skilled doula, ayurvedic counselor, iridologist, holistic practitioner, sacral steam practitioner, and skin care product producer.
As an educator, author, numerologist, reproductive advocate, mkunga bui bui, wife, spiritual advisor, doula, community activist, mother, aunt, sister, fabric artist, and indigenous African American wombtress, she is called to be a jegna (brave warrior for culture preservation) of my ancestral legacy of healing and birthing. As part of her calling as a traditional African midwife, she manifested a transdisciplinary self-help toolkit to address the long-time high maternal and infant mortality rates in my community. Mkunga Bui Bui Oracle Cosmogram is a toolkit consisting of four components: cosmogram board with moveable pieces, narrative book, anthology book, and instruction manual. lihat lebih sedikit
