And then once we go there, we spell our stuff out and sit back and wait for it to get picked up.” - Khadijah Abdul-Mateen Welcome to Stay a While with Tommi Vincent!

And you know, working your way from the moment in the past that had you bound and had you tied up and caused you to lose sight of who you are and being able to embrace 100% of everything about who you are and how you've been created.”  Connect with KhadijaKhadijah's LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/khadijah-abdul-mateenKhadijah's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/khadiyogini/?hl=en Connect with ZakiyyahZakiyyah's Website - www.zakiyyah-am.comZakiyyah's Twitter - https://twitter.com/twinx2103?lang=en Checkout the Unearth and Bloom website and follow them on Instagram!   Connect with Me! You can reach Tommi on Instagram @cheftommivVisit https://vincentcountry.com and get connected with us on Vincent Country’s Instagram @vincentcountry    Music By: Stichiz - Big T.
