ARTIST PROFILE: Ntumba

By Milton Kirby | Truth Seekers Journal | Artist Profiles Series

A Voice of Spirit, Strength, and Transformation

When Ntumba steps onto a stage, she carries more than a message — she embodies a presence rooted in global perspective, spiritual depth, and grounded wisdom that reaches young women wherever they are in life. Whether speaking to a packed auditorium or guiding a small workshop circle, she builds space where women can breathe, heal, and rise.

Biography: A Journey Rooted in Purpose

Born with a natural calling to uplift others, Ntumba has spent years shaping a voice that is part teacher, part storyteller, and part healer. She holds a master’s degree in spiritual professional counseling, grounding her work in both academic training and deep personal insight. This background informs her signature approach: integrating spirituality, emotional wellness, and practical tools for growth.

Her influence spans coast to coast. She has led or collaborated on empowerment programs for young women at major institutions and organizations—including New York University (NYU), the New York State Senate, Teachers College at Columbia University, and the McSilver Institute—earning a reputation for clarity, authenticity, and heartfelt connection that inspires supporters to engage with her work.

Creative Journey: From Personal Transformation to Public Impact

Every chapter of Ntumba’s career reflects intentional evolution. But her most profound shift came through what she describes as a “dark night of the soul” — a period of deep spiritual wrestling that ultimately transformed her understanding of love, identity, and personal wholeness.

From this season emerged her defining epiphany:

You can experience being love — not just “doing” loving things — through the splitting of soul from spirit.

This revelation continues to shape her writing, her curriculum, her stage presence, and the way she mentors young women navigating their own transitions.

Signature Work Spotlight: “Love Savvy Jewel”

Her popular book, Love Savvy Jewel, offers practical and spiritual guidance to women seeking clarity, joy, and groundedness in their love lives. The book’s central message mirrors her own evolution: meaningful relationships begin within. Through stories, meditations, and heartfelt lessons, she helps readers see themselves with compassion and step into relationships with confidence.

Community Connection: A Mission Rooted in Healing

nTumba’s work is not solely for the stage — it is for the world.

Her core mission is to uplift women ages 13 and older who have been shaped, and often wounded, by the messages of modern media and the visual culture surrounding youth, beauty, and identity. She challenges those narratives by:

teaching spiritual concepts that highlight inner beauty
encouraging mental and emotional resilience
creating apparel designs that celebrate the spirit
offering tools to nurture self-worth independent of appearance

Through conferences, workshops, books, clothing, and community programming, she brings women back to themselves — reminding them of the beauty they carry beyond the surface.

Quotes & Voice

“When young women learn to see their worth beyond what the world shows them, everything changes. That’s where healing begins — in the spirit.”
