Meet Dr. Kiy
˚ ༘ ꨄ︎⋆the muse. the mystic. the mind.⋆ꨄ︎ ༘ ˚
Dr. Kiy is a researcher, mystic, and feminine futurist who developed Black Feminine Cultural Mysticism (BFCM), an embodied theoretical framework concerned with healing the fracture of the feminine through Erotic Joy, Embodied Presence, and Sacred Sensuality. Her work understands Black feminine knowledge as something preserved and transmitted through the body, the senses, ritual, glamour, and cultivated presence—often beyond the bounds of formal archives, yet deeply rigorous and enduring.
She holds a PhD, and her doctoral research explored how identity, representation, and belonging shape the experiences of Black girls and women in STEM, particularly how they claim space, construct identity, and reimagine belonging across physical and digital environments. Beyond the academy, her work resists the separation of theory from lived practice, treating embodiment and interior life as sites of intellectual authority.
As a certified trauma-informed somatic practitioner, with additional certifications in somatic mind-body healing, breathwork + womb-centered practices, she extends these inquiries into the relationships between the body, memory, pleasure, and self-knowledge.
She is the founder of The Feminine Citation, a living archive that houses Embodied Archives: A Feminine Study Salon, an intimate, facilitated space for collective inquiry into Black women's embodied knowledge traditions; Glamour Conjure Practica, a four-month guided study of interiority, ancestral inheritance, magical literacy + glamour praxis; and the Feminine Luminary Alignment Reading, a long-form, written archetypal and numerological reading designed as an interpretive archive rather than a predictive service.
Through her writing, speaking, somatic practice, and facilitation, Dr. Kiy brings intellectual rigor and embodied authority to conversations on femininity, power, pleasure, and belonging. At the center of her work is a commitment to preserving interior life, honoring ancestral memory, and cultivating the feminine as a site of knowledge, coherence, and care.
