Welcome to Be Rooted.
Several years ago, I started the work to be more centered and to focus on my well-being. This translated into me wanting to advocate to those close to me to do the same through the art of storytelling on my IG community called Beyond My Story Is. I learned over time that because I was an empath, the weight was too much for me to carry while taking in all these powerful stories.
However, my desire for Black women to have a safe space to share their thoughts has never stopped. Multiple times in my life, I have turned to journaling to provide that space for me. However, I always felt disconnected from the brands in the space.
I started this brand because I didn’t see myself, my friends, or my community reflected in stationery. When I sat down to share my inner thoughts with my journal, I wanted to feel like I was talking someone who understood me, uplifted me, and encouraged me to be better. I started this brand so that we could all have moments to:
- Be Rooted in Culture.
- Be Rooted in Reflection
- Be Rooted in Who We Are
I am excited to bring you all on this journey. We are just getting started. Please sign up to receive updates on new collections and products. Drop me a note if you have feedback. I love to hear it!
Spread Joy. Be Rooted.

I think you should have a pen collection to go with the journals. The pencils are nice but the points break and also write down therefore you will also need to keep a pencil sharpener. I did not think this is going to be a public comment. It is not meant to be negative.
I love your collections, I will be purchasing some for myself and I had the opportunity to work with so.e very bright young ladies in Baltimore city school system and I will be purchasing some for them as they move onto middle school something they can have start to create memories in there journey through life.
