Nothing Here Asks You To Be Ready.
This site exists for Black and Brown women who are...
In midlife and living through changes that deserve care without being rushed.
These changes may show up in the body. They may show up in energy. They may show up in how life or work begins to feel unfamiliar.
You do not need to arrive with clarity. You do not need to know what you are looking for. You do not need to be sure of anything.
When Familiar Ways No Longer Fit
There are times when familiar ways of moving through life stop working as they once did.
You may still be doing what you have always done, but it feels heavier or less sustainable. Your body may be asking for something different before you have words for it. The pace that once worked may no longer feel possible.
Nothing may be wrong, but something is no longer aligned.
About The Work
I offer one-to-one, time-limited, non-clinical support for times when the ways you usually move through life no longer feel workable.
This work is offered through Unrushed.
For Black and Brown women navigating midlife, perimenopause, and menopause.
The work takes place in a contained space where there is room to be with what you are living day to day. This can include what is happening in your body, what you are feeling, and the practical realities you are carrying. We may use words, or we may sit quietly. There is no requirement to explain, organize, or make sense of anything.
Nothing is directed or prescribed. The work is not about solving a problem or improving yourself. It is about having space to be with what is already here, without being pushed toward an answer or outcome.
This kind of support can be useful when you need space to be with what you’re experiencing, without being managed or evaluated.

About Me
My work is shaped by lived experience and long attention to what happens when the body, identity, and pace of life begin to shift. I work one to one, with care for timing, containment, and what is actually present rather than what is expected.
The work is grounded in staying connected to oneself without pushing, performing, or overriding what is known internally.

When Something Feels Different...
It can help to notice what’s happening.
Unrushed begins with a Fit Conversation, a brief and private conversation to talk through what you are looking for and to see whether Unrushed is a good fit for you at this time.
