Greetings & Grand Arising!
This past weekend, I attended one of the most important events of my entire existence. The 1st Annual F.L.Y. (First Love Yourself) Gurl Retreat on the beautiful Atlantic coast of Florida. This annual event was created and is hosted by my sister in healing & spiritual advisor Quatita Dean of AWalkWithTheAncestors.com
I have to be honest, I was extremely nervous to attend. Although it wasn’t my first retreat, I am well aware of the power that is Quatita Dean & I wasn’t sure if I was ready for the amount of healing (which she refers to as recovery) that was underway. However, there was no way I would allow myself to miss the opportunity to witness Quatita’s dream manifest into tangible reality & the opportunity to celebrate my good friends birthday being present right by her side. I was fully committed in support and more importantly the fact that my role as an attendee was to visually document the journey to recovery for all of the beautiful beings that would be blessed to share in the experience, including myself.
There is one thing about my sister Quatita that never fails…. She never ceases to push me into my full potential and quite frankly she naturally has that affect on anyone who is allowed the experience of her. On the first night, we celebrated, we laughed, we cried, we poured an abundance of emotion not with the goal of bonding through trauma but rather in seeing that in a world that feels lonely at times we are never really alone in our experiences here in the physical.
The first night I was put on the spot and it was requested of me by my grand advisor that I present my question of introspection to my family. It was as if without thought the words “What is your why?” flowed effortlessly from my lips. As I made my way around the room the emotions were ethereal & the connection was naturally cosmic. Some felt their whys were based on never being seen, not feeling heard, lacking the knowing of being loved, feeling alone or simply “Why don’t I have a why?” which was honestly the most profound and honest response to me. My eyes welled as I made my way around that kitchen as I fed on all that feeds me. As each tear fell, I purged. As each being expressed their purpose I stepped deeper into the energy of recovery. As one cousin began to speak on the ability to love without condition I wailed as the pain in the depths of my core cried out in GRATITUDE. The matriarchal spirit that I was in the presence of was in ebb & flow in direct reflection of the ocean that roared in sound through our open balcony doors and the enlightenment was as refreshing as the cool breeze the waters bestowed upon us during our visit. It was in that moment that I KNEW I was at home, I was surrounded by family & I was more ready than ever to recover from all that is Dis-Ease within my being.
Eventually the question was presented to me. My answer simply was “To feel.” My reason for being present was truly a gravitational & magnetic pull drawing me into the realization that outside of my safe space I am capable of feeling; feeling heard, feeling seen, feeling empowered, feeling divine & feeling aligned.
I say that to say this, I stepped away from my home here at Grand Ri5ing LLC for a while under the impression that I needed to refocus. However, what was truly happening was that I had lost to the ability to be felt & to feel. I had stepped away from the reason why I started my healing journey to begin with and got lost in the judgement of self & fear of my own success.
Throughout this event I utilized my smudging mist that I created a long time ago to keep me focused & aligned. As I sprayed to cleanse, my cousins that were in attendance with me were on me like the beads of comfort that poured from the bottle. They reminded me of my power and gave testimonials with the intent to bring me into my power, my soul purpose. I made a promise to them that I would no longer run from my creation and that I would share it with those who had the pleasure of the experience of me. They assisted me in putting the lenses back in my frames and in that moment I saw myself clearer than ever before.
I am beyond grateful to be back better than ever. I shared with Quatita today, as we laughed over vegan delicacies, that although the power of the retreat was clear, I still didn’t realize the impact those few days would have on me as I returned back to my space of solace. I am invigorated, I am empowered, I am recovering, I am inspired, I am motivated, I am felt & I am feeling.
With that being said, my newest oldest product GODDESSENCE is now available & with this insight I hope you are compelled to try it for yourself. I strongly affirm that GODDESSENCE is one of my grandest healing tools and I will be looking forward to hearing your stories of how it impacted you on your journey to recovery. After all, just like the F.L.Y. Gurl Retreat, GODDESSENCE is the embrace you always wanted but never knew you needed.
Rest Up & Rest Well.
Gratitude 💛 Malica 💛

This GODDESSENCE CALMING MIST is such a powerful mist. I’am grateful to be able to have this mist, I take it with me and spray as needed. Malica did her thing with this. Let me speak on the smell!

Greetings. I was one of the cousins who had the honor of experiencing the power of the Goddessence Healing Mist. This spray instantly delivered calmness to all who smelled it. I can’t wait for more affirmation scents to be created by Malica at Grand Ri5ing LLC.
