Musings of a Mystic

In this very special bonus episode, I try my own version of “exposure therapy” by sharing with you a deeply personal letter I wrote to my late college sweetheart, Aaron, on what would have been his 35th birthday. I reflect on the cherished memories we made together, the profound impact his absence has had on my life, and how I've found solace and a renewed sense of hope through a new connection. This episode is a raw and honest exploration of grief, love, and the resilience of the human spirit.

On the night of the new moon...I was FINALLY able to catch up with my IG crush Gina Lathan aka Flowrbomb, a Boston based inter-disciplinarian artist, who found her calling through the arts in the middle of the pandemic.

While in the Bay Area commemorating what would’ve been my eternal love’s 32nd birthday, I was able to have a conversation with someone he loved dearly and referred to as his “twin” Wade King-Gallman, who just so happens to be an Associate Clinical Social Worker as well as an influential role model to the youth; and a pillar in the San Francisco community they both grew up in. In what turned out to be an extremely healing conversation, Wade and I discussed the makings of a good “bromance”, holding yourself and others accountable, calling your traumas and toxic traits out by name, finding and defining peace and the season of life we now find ourselves in.

On this episode, Djamila hijacks @sir_comfortable’s Lost in Translation show in honor of Women’s HERstory month. She finally gets a chance to meet and talk to the captivating cosmic poet and crystal connoisseur, Aer, the owner of @the.cosmo.vendor, a black owned holistic and crystal online store.

Happy full moon Mystics! A couple weeks ago, as the first Mercury in Retrograde of 2021 came to an end, I had the wonderful opportunity to sit down with an ENCHANTRESS and my good sis S. De Silva for a conversation about her Sacred Woman healing journey and the difficult process of letting go of trauma bonds and meeting AND leaving people where they’re at.
