I’m The Cozy Sensei!
A queer Black non-binary and auDHD Spirit and neurospiritual scholar and healer. I’m currently studying integrative spiritual psychology at the graduate level at a nameless Ivy. I’m a multi-genre creative writer who writes spiritual romances: contemporary romantasy, sci-fi/speculative fiction, and Afrofuturistic solar punk. And I analyze the psychotherapy-spirituality in animation (anime and cartoons). I’m a proud anime/manga/manhwa otaku, cozy gamer (follow me on Twitch!), and spiritual life coach for neurodivergent and queer Black people (follow me on Tiktok!), as the founder of The Sol Gospel.
I explore life at the intersection of marginalized human experiences with a metaphysical bent through queer romantasy, magical and spiritual realism, and speculative fiction through anime and cartoons tackling existential topics. I write to bring beauty into the mundane, present a mirror to the world for the forgotten, and spread joy, making creativity irresistible. A lifelong learner, my interests and expertise in clinical-mental health psychology, spirituality and religion, and decolonizing social systems enable me to write about complex people learning to live and love through conflict.
I study Spirituality-Mind-Body Psychology, focusing on aesthetic philosophy and psychotherapy in fiction and film. In 2017, I self-published my first poetry and prose coloring book, "With Time: From Grief to Peace," which can be purchased on Damazon (until a literary agent recognizes my genius and signs me!)
