History & Founding

Aryn founded The milk&honey House out of a void for spaces that focus on both spirituality and wellbeing for people of color. With a background in psychotherapy and spirituality, Aryn sensed the calling down a path that would lead to something far beyond herself.

The House started out as an online blog eight years ago, as an online compilation of wilderness and desert experiences, for individuals who perpetually experienced life as wandering through a wilderness. Blogging became a time of inner discovery, and a year later, Aryn transitioned out of the classroom and into the world of psychotherapy. All the while, the seeds of contemplative spirituality that were planted during her undergraduate days of service in Howard’s chapel, were beginning to break through from underground.

The Birth

Finding Freedom

Two years later, she was chosen to participate in a fellowship for contemplative leaders. While in the program, as a school leader during COVID pandemic, she was forced to hold the tension of burnout and transformation.

The result of that tension: An inner resurrection.

Aryn was beginning to integrate all of the parts of her life--how to adopt a deeper sense of listening to the still small voice inside, in the midst of the chaos of daily life. Suddenly, she possessed the freedom to exist more authentically in her leadership, and in the way that she was showing up in the world, in general.

And the rest is...well, history!
