experiencing them myself.

I’m rose j. percy.

I help people imagine work and rest as companions, not opposites though my work at A Gentle Landing.

A Gentle Landing helps people weave work and rest into soft, sustaining, womanist practices of aliveness and softness.

I spread the word about my work by sharing digital content to help guide people towards spiritually expansive expressions of embodied faith through the lens of rest, healing and play.

I love Lucille Clifton. Happy to talk about her if asked—but do give me a time limit.

A Gentle Landing asks:

What does it mean to treat rest as vocation?

How do we live Black aliveness beyond survival?

What practices help us archive our stories with devotion instead of extraction?

To lean into these questions, I reach toward Black feminist poetics and critical theory, theologies of calling, communal care ethics, somatic healing practices and leisure studies.

The primary way I share my research is through digital media for public audiences, drawing from digital Black feminists and womanists who continue finding one another and building community despite the internet’s chaos, silos, and distractions. I root this learning in womanist radical subjectivity, which encourages me to center my lived experiences.
