After spending over a decade volunteering and working at Rikers Island Correctional Facility, Oneika saw what happens to people who feel like they've been tossed aside. And before Rikers, Oneika spent two decades as a B&N bookseller offering new worlds to seekers and language for exploration. She has a gifted ability to take big ideas and distill them down into understandable and relatable learnings allowing her to show up as a conduit for transformation. Oneika is your teacher, your auntie, your friend, and an intuitive soul here for the work of personal collective liberation. Sit with Me is a gift to those who feel disconnected or lost, but know they want something to change. If you've ever felt left out, forgotten, judged, misunderstood or mistreated, this book is for you. “Loving everyone is essential; like them isn’t necessary. This book is both a love letter to presence and a field guide for finding your way back to it when you’ve wandered far from home.”

“Mays…reminds us that healing isn’t lofty or distant. It’s gritty, tender, and within reach. This book, this meditation, this prayer is for the ones carrying shame, the ones searching for wholeness, the ones who have been told to give to everyone but themselves. It’s for those of us who know we can’t be free until we learn to sit with all of who we are.”
— Darnell Lamont Walker, author of Never Can Say Goodbye
