Our Origin
River & Ember was born not only from my knowledge as a doctor of psychology, but from my own journey with grief and love. It’s about creating rituals that outlast us —
River & Ember began with two simple forces: the steady flow that carries us forward, and the quiet warmth that keeps us alive inside.
My husband, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, embodied both. His presence was a river — steady, sure, and always moving toward what matters. His spirit was an ember — glowing with encouragement, igniting possibility in those around him.
His way of seeing the world — that children’s inner light is worth tending with care and constancy — is the heartbeat of everything we create here.
This work is not just my offering to families; it is a continuation of the love and presence that shaped our own.

To the river that carried us.
To the ember that never goes out.
Your love was the first story I ever wanted to keep telling.
From a place of love and legacy…
