In this special episode Dr. Kimberly J. sits down with fellow practitioner, scholar, and author Drisana McDaniels for a heartfelt conversation about her inspiration behind the creation of the Black Women's Identities, Spirits, and Spiritualities (BWISS) program.

Together, they explore the vision, passion, and purpose that gave rise to this transformative learning journey and discuss why spaces that center the lived experiences, spiritual traditions, and healing needs of Black women are more important than ever.

Dr. Kimberly J. shares how her own journey as a scholar, healer, and spiritual practitioner revealed a profound gap in traditional education and inspired her to create a sacred space where scholarship, spirituality, embodied healing, and ancestral wisdom could come together in service of collective liberation.

✨ Coming this summer: The Black Women's Spirituality Summer Intensive will launch as an online, on-demand experience designed for those seeking deeper healing, spiritual inquiry, and reconnection with ancestral wisdom. Learn more: https://soultosoulinstitute.mykajabi.com/summer-school-intensive

In this episode, we explore misogynoir as a deep soul wound within Black relational life and community. Naming both historical and internalized roots, she examines how subconscious patterns of disregard and distortion toward Black women can show up in attitudes, intimacy, and partnership. This is a healing-centered call inviting Black men into awareness, accountability, and relational repair—not through shame, but through truth, Spirit, and transformation.

Yes, I said it. 🖤

If you’re tired, overwhelmed, grieving, irritated, or simply not feeling the holidays — you are NOT broken or alone.
This season is not meant for overworking, overspending, over giving, or overextending.

Winter is a time for rest, reflection, and restoration, not burnout.

In this episode, I dive into:
 ✨ Holiday blues & grief
 ✨ Family triggers & boundaries
 ✨ Radical self-care (without guilt)
 ✨ Saying NO and choosing YOU

You don’t have to perform joy.
You don’t have to go into debt.
You don’t have to be anywhere you don’t feel safe.

Sit down. Breathe. Choose yourself.

Today’s conversation is deeply needed, long overdue, and close to my heart. We are talking about neurodiversity in Black and Brown children—and how systems that were never designed with our children in mind have misnamed, misunderstood, and mishandled their brilliance.

We’re going to explore terms that may be new for some people—like neurodivergent, ADHD, autism, highly sensitive, and highly intuitive—not as diagnoses to fear, but as languages to understand our children in a deeper way.

So many of our children have been labeled too early, punished too often, or ignored altogether. They are seen as behavioral problems, learning problems, or discipline problems—when in truth, they are carrying different nervous systems, different learning styles, and different ways of perceiving the world.

I believe we are witnessing a generation of children who are not broken—but neurobrilliant. Children who are wired differently because they are meant to build something different. And if we are going to love them fully, we must also build schools, systems, and spaces that honor who they actually are.

Today, I’m honored to be joined by someone doing exactly that work in the world.

Our guest is Kira A. Betford, founder of Neurocatalyst Academy, a micro-school designed specifically for Black and Brown neurodivergent children. She is an educator, advocate, visionary, and re-builder of learning spaces that center safety, dignity, creativity, and cultural belonging.

Join us for a sacred and heart-centered conversation exploring the spiritual essence of healing and the energetic dimensions of breast cancer.

In this episode, Dr. Kimberly J. Davis, spiritual scholar and founder of the Journey Healing Institute, sits down with Tammi C. Walker—social worker, therapist, life coach, and breast-cancer survivor—to examine how grief, exhaustion, and emotional imbalance manifest in the body, and how spiritual awareness, ancestral wisdom, and self-love open the pathway to restoration.

Together, they explore how Black women’s bodies carry generational grief, how unprocessed emotions create energetic blocks, and how healing the heart—the true home of the breast—requires surrender, stillness, and the courage to return to love.

💞 This episode is for every woman navigating prevention, diagnosis, treatment, or remission—an invitation to restore harmony, trust the body’s wisdom, and reconnect with the divine energy within.

Welcome to today’s episode: Portrait of a Wounded Healer.
In this conversation, I will share five traits that often show up in the lives of wounded healers—traits that can sometimes challenge us, but also hold the keys to our deepest growth. Together, we’ll name these patterns, and I’ll speak to the ongoing healing work, the consistent, intentional practices we must engage in to soften the harm we’ve internalized and to honor our unique positionality as wounded healers.

In this episode we build upon the 10 rules of engagement in the midst of spiritual warfare. It is clear that we are engaged in a fierce global spiritual battle that will test everybody’s gangster. Are you ready? Do you know how to equip yourself for battle? Tune in to explore in detail ten powerful rules of engagement sourced to me directly from Spirit.

1.       Do not trust external media. Source your news from spirit, source, ancestors, and your contemporary wisdom teachers, healers (not pseudo new age healers), medicine women, and high-priestesses.

2.       Establish conscious relationships with benevolent, protective, and primordial ancestors through ritual and remembrance.

3.       Protect your energy at all costs-boundaries are non-negotiable

4.       Heal!

5.       Trust the process

6.       Reconnect to your power and purpose

7.       Reimagine your battle armor as sleep, nourishment, creativity, and joy

8.       Seek professional help

9.       Be prepared for a mass exodus

10.   Get out of your own way and just listen
