Bookshelf love
I am so thankful to be a member of Ile Orunmila Afedefeyo, an inclusive spiritual community that cradles my growth as a human being. As my newest book launch approaches, I am practicing reciprocity. I am gratefully asking for and receiving support with my book, and so I am giving. Here are some books written by writers in my community (I will add as I find more):
