Book One: Lease on my mind

Emilyann Guillaume, known as Mimi or Poetic, is a writer, speaker, and mental health advocate whose work lives at the intersection of healing, spirituality, and self-reclamation. Her voice is rooted in truth-telling, shaped by lived experience, and guided by a deep commitment to inner transformation. She believes that to transform a heart is to save a life. She is a proud Rasta woman and a practicing Rastafarian, whose spiritual foundation influences both her life and her writing. Her connection to God and alignment with Rastafari are not separate from her work. They are the source of it. Emilyann is an honorably discharged USN veteran[A7.1], currently pursuing a master's degree in clinical mental health counseling, and works within the field of social services. Her professional path reflects the same mission that carries through her writing: supporting individuals and communities through healing, advocacy, and access to care. Through Hipsters Diaries: A Poetic Saga, she invites readers into the intimate process of returning to self. Her writing reflects the journey of unlearning, confronting residual feelings, and stepping into personal authority without apology. What begins as reflection becomes instruction. What feels like poetry becomes a mirror. Emilyann also has AI-generated music available on all major platforms. Hipster's Diaries: Addition to Peace by Poetic Mi was inspired by poems within and outside of this poetic saga. This music makes it easier to engage for those who connect better through audio, allowing listeners to stay connected to love, peace, unity, and blessings. Emilyann's work is influenced by her spiritual alignment, her connection to God, and her understanding that growth is not always gentle, but it is always necessary. Her words speak to those navigating identity, love, power, and purpose in a world that often asks them to shrink. She is also the founder of Hipsters Diaries Inc., a nonprofit organization dedicated to mental health awareness, mentorship, and community healing. Her mission is to create spaces where people feel seen, supported, and empowered to transform their wounds into wisdom. She does not write from a place of perfection. She writes from experience, from evolution, and from a place that understands that healing is layered. Jah Rastafari
