     Kween Raven

is the mother of two boys; she is a nurse, a yoga instructor, a production manager, milliner, and an artist.

​

And, she is bereaved.

​

     On April 3rd, 2021, Raven's eldest son, age 14 at the time, was killed in an off road vehicle crash.

 

     He had been riding passenger when the vehicle caught fire. They were unable to get him out. He died in his most favorite land, the Arizona desert.

​

     Raven had traveled the world with her son; from the caves of Mexico, to the Sierra Mountains, to France, Burning Man, and beyond. Before his death, they had survived extraordinary circumstances together and were a thriving mother-son team.

     

 After four years of surviving the loss of her son,

and of learning the ropes of grief,

she is ready to share her story; she needs to share her story

as she continues to walk the path of a

bereaved mother.
