Rosemary is a wombyn who takes care of the world and takes care of her own. She is a fierce being, a divine mother, and a selfless caretaker. To be able to take care of her during her Friends of Rose Experience was quite humbling.

We laughed, we played, we truly saw each other. The energy was just right. I was just a vessel for Life Force Energy to flow through to her so that she could calm her mind, body, and soul. Not only did the reiki ground her in that moment, but it travelled with her into the day and help unblock stuck energy in her home and personal environment.

What do you love about yourself?

Rosemary: My giving heart. It truly fulfills me to give to my loved ones. Not just material things, but emotional and spiritual support.

What do you do for fun?

Rosemary: My idea of fun now is cooking a huge meal (not rushed). Then, sit down and binge-watch a few episodes of a show I’ve been wanting to catch up on.

What is your perfect Sunday?

Rosemary: Sleeping in with my babies, then, making pancakes from scratch together. Meanwhile, listening to lo-fi music and sipping on a warm cup of coffee. Followed by all-day lounging in PJs.


What type of music chills you out?
Rosemary: Lo-fi.


What do you do for work?
Rosemary: I am a Med Aide.


Is there anything else you would like to share about yourself?
Rosemary: I’m excited to have a session with you and to spend some much-needed sister bonding time.

What makes you feel beautiful?
Rosemary: Being able to spend the time to do my hair and make-up.



How do you feel about your body?

Rosemary: It’s not where I want it but I truly do love it. I’ve learned to embrace the “now” instead of always lusting for what it could be or how it could look.


What are your best features?
Rosemary: My eyes!

How much skin are you wanting to show?


Rosemary: As much as I’m comfortable with that day. Maybe all of it.


How would you describe your wardrobe style?
Rosemary: Urban.

What type of lingerie appeals to you?

Rosemary: Lace and feminine, I also love cozy! Like an oversized cardigan.


What are your thoughts on energy, life source, the universe?

Rosemary: I feel like this could be an all-day conversation with us. We would feed ideas off of each other. I’m excited to learn more about this from you.
