co-creating safe spaces for Black Femmes to achieve embodied authenticity by transforming pain + hurt into pleasure, power + healing.

My charge fuels me: to walk alongside Black Femmes (women, girls, feminine identified) as they continue on the ever-evolving process of self-discovery, making adjustments to live in alignment with their desires and express themselves the most authentically.

I believe that choosing to heal is

a radical act of self-love.

AWARENESS

bringing your attention to what is present in the here + now; making space for the subtle
ALIGNMENT

make conscious decisions + choices that resemble the truth you know so deeply
AUTHENTICITY

remembering the truth of who you are at your core + rediscovering who you are now

Where does the name “Altruistic Ash” come from?

Altruism, to me, is the practice of genuine concern for the well-being and happiness of humanity. I genuinely care about my community and the people that I get to serve, and I show up and serve with deep passion, care, and love.
