Twenty years of creation, courage, and cultural work.
Only Confidence Inc. was born from necessity, imagination, and the unshakeable will of a Black woman raising five children alone while carving out a life in the arts. Founded nearly twenty years ago, the company began as a creative sanctuary — a place where writing, curriculum, and community work could live under one roof and sustain a household built on grit, tenderness, and inherited genius.
Confidence Omenai entered the professional world as a curriculum developer, designing trauma-informed, arts-based programs for young people navigating the juvenile justice system. Her work centered dignity, self-expression, and the radical idea that every child deserves to be seen, heard, and restored — not punished into silence.
For thirteen years, she traveled the country as a nationally recognized slam poet, performing on stages that stretched her voice, sharpened her craft, and built a community of artists who saw her as both a force and a refuge. Poetry became both weapon and balm — the way she mothered, healed, taught, and survived.
In 2017, she expanded into voice acting, signing with Go Voices Talent Agency and lending her voice to commercials, narration, animation, and storytelling projects rooted in emotion, nuance, and musicality. Her versatility as a multi-hyphenate creative deepened, widening her reach and solidifying her reputation as an artist who could shape worlds with sound alone.
Across the years, Confidence authored plays, songs, essays, and poems; taught in classrooms and community centers; built programs that anchored people through grief, identity formation, and transformation; and established herself as a cultural worker whose artistry and ethics move as one.
She later co-founded Collective Healing Through Art, a nonprofit dedicated to trauma-informed, culturally grounded healing for BIPOC and LGBTQIA2S+ community members. That work — rooted in ritual, story, and creativity — remains one of the most vital branches of her legacy.
Today, Only Confidence Inc. is the home of her creative empire:
the Planted Not Buried Oracle Deck, original plays like Seven Coffins and Poems Pay for Passports, her companion poetry collections, spiritual products, podcasts, workshops, and the full ecosystem of healing-centered offerings that carry her distinctive mark.
What began as one Black mother surviving and creating against all odds has grown into a multi-disciplinary arts company shaping culture, community, and collective liberation through story, ritual, and imagination.
Only Confidence Inc. is not just a business —
it is a lineage, a lived theology, and a testament to what grows when a woman refuses to disappear.
