Jocaca is a Los Angeles studio for spiritual direction and art practice. Together, we create contemplatively, name what’s true with radical honesty, and build communities of care grounded in authenticity and integrity.
Also called spiritual accompaniment or inner-awareness coaching, offers room to slow down, listen deeply, and become more aware of how the holy is moving in your life. It is not about answers or fixing. It is about presence, curiosity, and openness.
I am Toni Rose, a spiritual director who accompanies people exploring questions of meaning, faith, identity, and connection. Our time together is confidential and grounded in radical authenticity. You bring your own way of making sense of life, through religion, spiritual experiences, justice, art, mysticism, and that understanding guides our exploration. We attend to what feels most true and alive in you. Learn more about what this ancient practice can look like and how to begin.

Transitions Art Project and Other Work
My current art study, Transitions: A Series of Self Portraits, traces identity through my transition as a transgender woman, shifting colors, shapes, textures, communities, and gazes. Each piece is an inquiry, part research and part ritual, into how the body carries memory, ancestors, pain, grief, joy, transformation, and engorged potentials for the future.
I am in dialogue with other transitions in our time. The work compares and contrasts my becoming with political change, ableism, aging, immigration, dying, war against civilians, decolonization, incarceration, censorship, racism, and hateful norms of all kinds. In each piece I look for echoes across these transitions and ask how they resonate in my body and my self portraiture. And I wonder how my art and reflection move in your body.
JoCaCa is more than inspiring artwork. It is a lived study, a practice that asks how art and spirit can hold people, communities, and futures with care.
Dada Breach Blog is where I leak all my deepest reflections on art, identity, spirit, generosity, sex, relationship, and leadership. Everything is absurd and all norms must be abandoned, get freaky. Break open, never closed, and breathe deep before continuing forward.
