MyKume Journal
More than a journal—it’s a guided companion for your inner world.
A space where you don’t face a blank page alone. Thoughtfully structured prompts, an Emotions Word Bank, a Body Map, and practical Self-soothing Tips help you name what you’re feeling, make meaning of your experiences, and reconnect with yourself.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “First journal I’ve ever actually finished!”
-Kat F.
Kume is a conversation.
Before Kume House came to life, our founder, Yelka, was rediscovering the power of her own story. Raised in New York City and rooted in her West African Finah heritage, a lineage of Mande storytellers, poets, and historians, she grew up surrounded by the belief that stories hold the power to process, reframe, and reconnect us to who we are.
What began as a personal journey of reflection became Kume House, a space for others to slow down, listen inward, and make meaning from their own experiences. With a focus on storytelling and thoughtful design, we offer tools and experiences that help people understand who they are and what they feel.

“Yelka elevates the power in storytelling and reflecting on critical junctures in one’s life. In a world where individuals can feel increasingly disconnected from one another, this podcast provides the intimacy and vulnerability of human connection, we’ve all been missing.”

“The podcast is very intuitive and insightful, straight to the point with no frills. It certainly makes you look back at your own personal experiences and dissect those specific moments in your life where you either saw your path clearly or completely changed the course you were on. With so much going on in the world is good to sit back and listen to these inspiring stories.”
