Today we’d like to introduce you to Te’zha Jones.
Hi Te’zha, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
My work began as a personal search for healing. I was navigating chronic pain and illness connected to my menstrual cycle, along with a deep disconnection from my body. That experience led me into herbalism and natural healing practices as I tried to better understand and care for myself.
What started as personal healing became an herbal business, and over time it naturally expanded into community spaces—workshops, circles, and gatherings focused on womb wellness, storytelling, and emotional healing. Through that work, I began to realize I wasn’t just building a business, but creating spaces for collective care and remembrance.
That path eventually became Wombs Unite, my organization centered on womb wellness, creative expression, and healing justice. Today, I am also stepping more fully into myself as an artist and filmmaker, exploring themes of water, spirituality, memory, and the body as a site of wisdom. Spirituality has always been the thread running through everything I do—it continues to guide both my personal healing and my creative work.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It hasn’t been a completely smooth road. One of my biggest struggles has been what I now understand as a visibility wound. For a long time, I built my work in a very private way—I didn’t really want to be seen, I avoided talking directly to people, and I rarely shared myself, my thoughts, or even my face within my work.
As Wombs Unite began to grow, I realized I couldn’t stay hidden in the same way if I truly wanted the work to reach people. My own healing and the growth of my organization started to mirror each other. I’ve had to learn how to be visible, how to speak up, and how to allow myself to be witnessed.
That process hasn’t been easy, but it has been deeply transformative. I’m now in a place where I not only want to be seen and heard, but I’m also eager to connect with others. I trust that my work will reach the people it’s meant to reach, and I’m open to building those relationships along the way.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I am a healing-centered artist, organizer, and founder of Wombs Unite, a space dedicated to womb wellness, storytelling, and collective healing. My work lives at the intersection of spirituality, embodiment, and creative expression, with a focus on helping women reconnect to their bodies, their stories, and their inner wisdom.
Through Wombs Unite, I facilitate womb circles, workshops, and community healing spaces that blend education, ritual, and storytelling. What I am most known for is creating intentional spaces where people can slow down, reflect, and feel seen—especially around themes of reproductive health, emotional healing, and ancestral connection.
I am also expanding into filmmaking, where I explore themes of water, memory, and the body as a site of spiritual intelligence. At the core of everything I do is storytelling—whether through events, writing, or film—as a way to support healing and collective remembering.
What sets my work apart is that it is deeply intuitive and lived. It comes directly from my own healing journey, especially navigating chronic pain, disconnection from my body, and learning how to come back into relationship with myself. That personal foundation is what shapes the spaces I create for others.
What I’m most proud of is not just building an organization, but growing alongside it—learning how to move from isolation into community, and from silence into expression.
What has been the most important lesson you’ve learned along your journey?
The most important lesson I’ve learned on this journey is that “closed mouths don’t get fed,” especially as an artist. For a long time, I held my work very privately and assumed it would grow on its own without me needing to fully speak up or put myself forward.
What I’ve learned is that visibility is a form of nourishment for your work. You have to be willing to share your ideas, ask for opportunities, and allow yourself to be seen if you want your work to reach the people it’s meant for. Learning to use my voice and step into visibility has completely changed the trajectory of both my art and my organization.
