Gratitude.

This journey has taken me to the depths of myself. The deep wells of my grit— the banks of grace and has continuously led me to the river of gratitude.

This project has become so much greater than me— it has become a devotion and sanctuary for many.

I am moved deeply by all those who have placed their delicate trust in me — to deliver their prayers, their melodies — to weave this project to fruition.

We have just emerged from a deep writing session in California where we birthed over 40 songs!

Every day, the alchemy of our trust & expression blossomed. We could have kept going — and, we will. Yet, in respect to finding the dance of “time on” and “time off” we decided to wrap our time in California as the fires raged outside. We wrapped our session by burning olive branches & speaking our prayers and dreams together.

A deep bow to my soul brother & executive producer, Gene Evaro Jr who has gifted me his presence, his prayers & his playfulness.

To Piper Robbison; my soul sister, Erykah Baduh producer of love & flow.

John Fitch; my beloved & hype man. Thank you for holding my heart with so much love & teaching me how to step fully in to my graceful grit.

Barbara and Abraham Eden; opening your home to us, your abundance, your jedi discipline, — and forever encouraging this music to come through.

My family; for seeing the stardust in my eyes and encouraging me from day one. Every day, I wake up in honor to be in this life together.

I could not bring this project to life without you— nor would I . We are in this together.

— One day, in the studio, I was feeling all the feels— reflecting on the journey here to this moment. Sigh, I now fully understand “divine timing” and believe deeply in the guidance of angels. All of the initiations of being set back on this project // not finding the right team/// not aligning on time all make sense.

In this moment, I look around and have a prayer answered team. We are divinely on time and aligned in this project. Every day, my heart unfurls more and more to the greater power of trust and to the endless abundance prayer brings.

I realize that praying out loud with my people is KEY for my heart and channel to flow. I am so lucky to be with a team who prays deep and plays hard.

This album has taught me so much about who I am ; it has brought me highs and soft lows of personal reflection. Showing up to the table every day to do better.

As we move in to the next stages of this project and birthing it in to the world; I pray for the rest of the team to assemble. A group of dedicated and professional womangers, PR Agencies, booking agents , stylists, labels & all the other gems who believe in peace for the world. A team who is aligned in serving love. A team I can bring to family gatherings & team getaways.

I know that I want to do this for the rest of my life.

Just by being, we are enough.

I love you all and I wish endless abundance to you.

Thank you so much.

Blessings,

Sarita
