In this episode we sit down with Oneika Mays, a writer, teacher, and multi-hyphenate facilitator. Oneika shares her journey from teaching mindfulness at Rikers Island to becoming a voice for healing, justice, and transformation. We discuss spiritual activism, METTA Meditation, embracing change, and how mindfulness can be a radical tool for liberation.
Her upcoming memoir Sit With Me: A No BS Journey to Mindfulness and Meditation (HarperOne, releasing March 2026) is a reflection of the powerful work she’s doing, we’re honored to hold space with Oneika.
