Hi, I’m Milicent

ABOUT ME

I’m a mother, award winning change maker, rest and transformation coach, trauma-informed yoga and meditation teacher, and founder of The Easeful Path.

For over two decades, I worked across philanthropy, government, and the nonprofit sector, leading efforts in social impact, systems change, and collective wellbeing. But like so many high-capacity women, I eventually hit the limits of pushing through. A decade-long journey with chronic illness and burnout led me to a turning point, one that taught me that healing and clarity aren’t found in doing more — they come when we slow down enough to truly hear ourselves.

Five years ago, I founded The Octavia Fund, an initiative rooted in rest and restoration for Black women activists. Since then, it has supported over 100 women and deepened my belief that honoring our inner wisdom, brilliant bodies, deepest desires, and need for rest is not a luxury. It is the key to our superpowers. They unlock clarity, creativity, and purpose. They are the foundation of visionary leadership and a fulfilling life.

And bonus! This work isn’t about doing more! It’s about being more present, more intentional, more at ease, and more true to yourself. It’s about coming home to what actually works for you. Because your wellbeing isn’t optional. It’s the foundation. 

I support women who are ready to

Restore their connection to their body and intuition

Reclaim their time, energy, and boundaries, and

Renew their sense of purpose, joy, and overall wellbeing.

What I believe…

  • Ease is Intentional
    We create ease not by escaping or avoiding, but by being honest with ourselves, moving with intention, and honoring our needs.

  • The Body is Sacred
    Our bodies are not problems to solve—they are wise, worthy, and deserving of deep care, nourishment, and reverence.

  • The Nervous System Knows
    Our nervous system is a compass. When we learn to listen, it gently guides us toward safety, clarity, and alignment.

  • Change Lives in the Body
    Transformation isn’t just a mindset—it’s an embodied experience. We root change in how we move, feel, and respond.

  • Foundations Matter
    Restful sleep, nourishing food, and joyful movement are not extras—they are the essential building blocks of a vibrant, easeful life.

  • Small Shifts, Lasting Change
    Sustainable transformation comes through soft, consistent shifts, not force. Small steps over time lead to meaningful, transformational change.

  • Rest is Power
    Rest is not just a reward or retreat. It’s a radical act of reclamation. It sharpens our insight, strengthens our presence, and fuels our power.

  • Working with Milicent has been a deeply nourishing and transformative experience. Her presence consistently invited me back to my own inner wisdom, gently guiding me into deeper attunement with my body, values, and desires. One of the most profound shifts I’ve experienced is an internal permission to rest—truly rest—and trust that my worth is not measured by output.
