About Wil Oliver (Transcending)
Mindful Soul Practitioner
Wil Oliver, also known as Wil Transcending, offers one-on-one support, embodied teachings, public speaking, and community-rooted practice at the intersection of Black, Brown, and Indigenous (BBI) aliveness, memory, recovery, and creative truth-telling.
A lifelong Artist for Social Change, Wil practices as a writer, design artist, recovery practitioner, meditation teacher, and cultural curator. He draws from lived experience across housing injustice, mental health challenges, substance use, systems navigation, spiritual betrayal, and medical harm.
Wil's relational style blends mindfulness mentoring, narrative therapy, and Africultural healing frameworks that uplift the body, the land, intangible insight, and the breath as sources of knowing. He is the creator of MORE of What U Like, a Substack sanctuary offering Mindful Soul Writings and audio recordings of Mindful Soul Meditations.
His mindfulness teachers include Sharon Shelton, Alex Maizuss, David Cabrera, Jack Kornfield, Devin Berry, and Dr. Shelly Harrell, whose Sankofa Theory and Practice framework Wil adapts and expands through his own ancestral lens. He supports community members through sliding-scale 1:1 sessions, group workshops, and ritual practice grounded in Sankofa theory.
Wil is currently completing two books that reflect his unique cadence: unapologetic, solemn, and woven with cultural discernment.
