Meet the Healer

I’m Ayani Nicole—earthy creative, bus living nomadic, homeschooling mother of seven, midwife, nurse, herbalist, artist, and founder of Ayani.

Ayani wasn’t born overnight. She came through many seasons, each one a sacred unfolding of my personal healing journey—through grief, rebirth, motherhood, womanhood, loss, and deep spiritual return.

Before she was Ayani, she had many iterations. But even before the many phases she was  vision and dreams working collectively with handwritten labels and apothecary blends made in the stillness of the night while my babies slept. Every iteration carried pieces of me—my roots in community health, my lived experience as a Black woman, and my reverence for the body’s ability to heal when held with care and intention.

But Ayani is the name that chose me when I chose myself.

Rooted in a name meaning “unmovable,” “a path,” or “blessed,” Ayani represents the season I am in now: standing softer but stronger, walking with deep intention, and weaving my lived experience as a healer into a space that honors the sacredness of women’s bodies.

This brand is not just about products—it’s about return.
Return to ritual.
Return to your inner knowing.
Return to the quiet truth your body has always spoken.

As a nurse, community herbalist, and student midwife, I’ve witnessed how deeply we need care that doesn’t just fix—but listens, nurtures, and remembers.

Ayani is a space for that remembering.

Through botanically-based intimate wellness, synbiotics, body oils, and sacred care rituals, I pour my love, my clinical knowledge, and my ancestral wisdom into each offering. Every product is part science, part soul, and fully aligned with your sacred wholeness.

I created Ayani because I believe vaginal health is sacred. That softness is power. That care can be clinical and mystical. That Black women deserve wellness that feels like ceremony.

Thank you for being here.
You are seen, held, and deeply honored.

With love,
Ayani Nicole
