Welcome to Paradigm Shifts.

Hi precious being, my name is Ayanda and I am a person! That’s mostly what I want to be seen as. I’m also a TikTok creator, podcast host, and lover of love, community, and wisdom. I’m very sensitive, I love the earth, and I am very much a morning person. I love my family and friends. I love non-fiction and mystery and historical fiction books. I am a South African woman living in the USA, in Boston. I’m also your friend who won’t stop making everything about colonialism because it is!

Why become a paid subscriber?

If you follow me on TikTok, subscribing here on Substack is the best way to support my work. While they are separate platforms, I am one person and I pour all my love, energy, and heart into my content. I hope that if you have the means, you’ll pour something into me. Doing so will help me keep everything free for everyone else who cannot comfortably become a paid subscriber.

  • On Sundays you’ll get my This Sparks Joy newsletter.

  • Once a week you’ll get a roundup of my fav paradigm-shifting media

  • We are building a community!

  • I will randomly share other things (essays of my own, ideas) as the spirit moves me!

You are precious. Sending lots of love your way!
