Today marks one year since the passing of Iyanifa Shondra.

As I reflect on her life and legacy, I am reminded of the profound impact she had on so many people walking the path of Ifá. She was more than an Iyanifa; she was a dedicated teacher, a trusted mentor, a guiding light, and a cherished friend. Her wisdom, patience, and commitment to sharing the teachings of Ifá helped shape the journeys of countless individuals seeking spiritual growth and understanding
Iyanifa Shondra poured herself into her community, ensuring that knowledge was not only preserved but passed forward with love, integrity, and purpose. She had a gift for meeting people where they were and encouraging them to continue their path with confidence and faith.
Though her physical presence is deeply missed, her influence remains alive in every lesson she taught, every life she touched, and every person she inspired. Her legacy continues through her students, her spiritual family, and all those who carry forward the wisdom she so generously shared.

Today, we honor her memory with gratitude, love, and respect. May her ancestors continue to embrace her, and may her legacy continue to flourish for generations to come.

Your teachings live on. Your impact lives on. Your legacy lives on.

My path into Isese has been a journey that I have embraced fully. After initiation and doing g the inner work took me through there🤣🤣🤣. But I would do it all again because it has allowed me to see who I am fully. I walk, think, and carry myself differently. There have been tough moments, grief of the person I use to be, and at times chaos.

Today I took another step on my journey and all I feel is gratitude💚💛💚

Sitting at the table and gazing out the window, I reflected on my journey. As I wondered why it had unfolded this way, I heard:

Remembering who you are is the first step—the doorway to your truest self. From there, it is time to till, plant, and grow.

Tilling: This is the inner work—the healing of the versions of you shaped by external ideas and other people’s expectations. It means going inward to unearth beliefs you adopted but never chose. It is letting go of untruths that never felt right, disrupting what keeps you from expanding, and learning to embrace yourself fully. It is also forgiveness—for yourself and for others—and that is freedom. This is where you lay your foundation.

Plant: Name your beliefs, morals, values, and truths—these are your seeds. Nourish them with learning, ancestor veneration, self-love, meaningful friendships, and by honoring every stage of who you are.

Grow: Through tilling you build a foundation; through planting you shape your own belief system. Growth comes from returning to this cycle as often as you need. It is ongoing and essential to your journey.

You are never alone in this process. You will draw your tribe, and we will walk beside you. Not every moment will be easy—at times it may feel as if everything has flipped—but even in chaos, you are held. We are your net when you fall, helping you rise again. We are your strength until you remember your own. Your journey has purpose, and it always will.

Now that you have remembered, are you continuing the journey through, Tilling, Planting, and Growing?

Water has been calling me for a few weeks and it was an honor to be near her.

There is a peace that I received and a reminder to flow, to stop trying to fix it, to just be, to be in the present moment.

Let's flow today💛💚💛
