About Me
My name is: Ivon (Formerly known as Omileti Olubunmi)
You’re probably here because you found out that there are awesome African Gods called Orisa!
You’re probably here because you want to connect with your African roots.
You’re probably here because you are hungry to learn more about Orisa, and can’t get enough information on them!
You’re probably here because you want to know what is your next step spiritually!
You’re probably here because it’s overwhelming and you’re hoping that you can find something that will be spiritually meaningful to you.
Believe me, I understand. I was exactly in that spot many moons ago, AND I am back to that same spot now, sso I get it. It’s been an unbeleivable ride – surreal — hard — and has tested my faith. . It is my hope that this platform will help others in their journey and not go through what I did. If this helps just one person, I will be happy.
FACTS ABOUT ME
*** I was born in Venezuela, grew up in New York City, and moved down south (don’t let the Latino-ness fool you on my Africanese)
*** I’ve been in these traditions for 31 years,… (and yes, I checked the calculator to make sure.)
– I’m also a mom of three boys, busy worker bee, motivator, podcaster, entrepreneur, school projects extraordinaire and doggy mom.
*** I love to read, but since my schedule is crazy – I listen to audio books in the car when I commute.
*** I thought that I had 11 years of being a Priestess of Yemonja – so now I am on my journey to start all over.
*** Fun fact – I sound like an articulate young girl on the phone and podcast (don’t let the voice fool you either, one of my sons just turned 21!) (ahem, thank you to my tough college Speech professor and Toastmasters!)
