Author Description

Living to 99 is a love letter to those of us at the margins of spirituality. Spirituality has existed beyond time and space. We are meant to be connected, yet our connection is often demonized, dehumanized, and punished along the way. In Living to 99, we explore concepts of spirituality-what it means to be connected to one another, to collectivism, community, care, and stewarding the land. Ultimately, we move toward fully claiming our purpose as humans. Through reflections on the 99 Names of Allah, we examine what it means to be human, to organize, and to strive for collective liberation. Utilizing physical, somatic, emotional, and spiritual pathways for healing and growth-grounded in collectivism and non-attachment- Living to 99 envisions spiritual connection between the world we currently inhabit and the utopia we are collectively yet to liberate.
