Adjourn Teahouse Beautifully unique, hand blended, sustainably sourced full leaf teas.

Seven days. Seven teas. Seven invitations to pause.

Some days ask us to make room.
Others invite us to clear some space, linger a little longer or rest.

We paired each of our House Seven blends with a day of the week… not as another routine to follow, but as a gentle reminder to pause intentionally.

Monday: Slow Rise | Take Your Time
Tuesday: Sunroom | Let In the Light
Wednesday: Mint Juju | Clear Some Space
Thursday: Afro Blue | Let It Unfold
Friday: Rimshot | Linger
Saturday: Honey, Hush | Let Quiet Find You
Sunday: LoveFreeze | Stay Awhile

Which tea is calling your name today?

The Rebirth of Adjourn ✨

After more than a month of intentional pause and rest, we’re finally restocking. And we’re beginning with our House Seven.

Seven blends. Seven invitations to pause.

A collection of our most beloved blends, with two fresh curations:

But this rebirth is about more than new packaging.

I’m thinking of our teas as ritual tools, each carrying a simple invitation:

🦋 Afro Blue — Let it unfold.
☀️ Sunroom — Let in the light.
🌹 LoveFreeze — Stay a while.
🍯 Honey Hush — Let quiet find you.
🌿 Mint Juju — Clear some space.
🫖 Slow Rise — Take your time.
🤎 Rimshot — Linger.

New colors. New energy. The teas you love, made with even more intention.

Thank you for staying with me through EACH iteration of Adjourn. I’m so grateful we get to keep evolving together.

HOUSE SEVEN | 10.09.26

Made with love. Meant for your pause.

October 1. Okay…here we go. 🥹🙏🏽✨

Before I stepped away in September, I’d already started playing with what the next season of Adjourn might look like.

Slower. More intentional. A little closer to our roots. And somewhere in there, I found my way back to tins.

I woke up a little anxious today, wondering if y’all would still be here when I came back. If you’d still want the tea. If you’d still f**k with your girl. 😂

The larger part of me believes you will. The tender part of me is still finding out.

But I miss y’all. I miss sharing tea with you. I miss pouring for you. I miss seeing your faces.

So…here’s a tiny peek at what I’ve been dreaming up. Our new copper tins are coming, with the tea you know and love inside and pricing staying right around where you remember it.

We’re taking our time with this rebirth.

I’m emerging from my pause with this one. 🥹

Glory Days: Sacred Rage. I’m getting onstage to do something I’ve never done, I’m scared as hell, and I love that for me. 😂

I’ve spent a lot of this year grieving, stopping, leaning into a bit of rage, and giving myself permission not to rush toward feeling better. So I’m bringing some of that to the stage with humor.

And because I come from good stock, I’ll also be calling on the spirit of my mama, Beverly, who taught me many beautiful things…including the fine + necessary art of cussing a motherf**ka out. 😂

I’m also deeply honored to share the stage with an INCREDIBLE group of women bringing their own stories, art, movement, and performances to this exploration of Black women’s rage. I can’t wait to witness them and to be witnessed alongside them.

Ten days. Come see what happens. 🖤

“I forgive myself for NOT being perfect.”
- Beverly Smith (my mama) 😌

Seven words I recite in this PAUSE.
And lately, it’s the *NOT* I keep returning to.

A few years ago, my cousin engraved these words onto a wooden coaster for me. ✨

This is a mantra my mother repeated during her transition and made sure my sister and I carried with us.

As I grieve the closing of the studio. The loss of a pregnancy. The life and business I thought I’d have. Changes in my body, my energy, my capacity. All the things that shift as we age and live and lose and become.

So this morning, I’m saying it again…

“I forgive myself for not being the perfect…”
- business owner, wife, friend, sister, daughter, artist, steward of everything I’ve built and the perfect version of myself for me

I’m so grateful my mother left us these seven words before she passed.

And in my PAUSE this morning, I offer them to you as you begin your week:

“I forgive myself for NOT being perfect.”

Hopefully you have the day off today. Go enjoy some of it while being wonderfully, humanly imperfect.

(Okay, back to the pause. Love y’all.)

I could have just closed the doors.

But something in me knew we needed to honor this ending, thank this space for holding us & to intentionally cross into the next season.

Yesterday, my sister-friends Amber Ritual Artist + Guide | Herbalist - Amber & Jenn Colored Girls Liberation Lab guided us through Threshold; our FINAL gathering at Adjourn Studio.

Jenn led us into meditation. We listened. We time traveled. We sat in quiet together. We braved that loud-ass AC. 😂 (SN: Glad to release that 😒)

And I poured Threshold, a deeply personal tea I originally blended to support my own body & spirit through pregnancy. Until yesterday, only my husband and I had ever sipped it. It was unnamed and unshared and I am grateful that we brought life to this blend. ✨

And then there were the women. Some familiar. Some brand new and already family. All of us carrying something we were ready to release.

For the first time, I could feel it clearly: the studio was bursting with love and somehow too damn small to hold Adjourn anymore. For the first time, the space felt tiny & I realized I did what I came to do. 🖤

So we let her go.

And before I crossed the threshold myself, my sister Amber took my hands + guided me through. 🙏🏽

What a way to say thank you.
What a way to leave.
What a way to welcome more.

Thank you all for celebrating with me ALL month!
There is more to come…stay tuned!
