Reconnect to
your embodied creative aliveness

Being human in this world is hard

being human in this world alone is impossible

& Coaching

Are you looking for embodied, creative, non-shaming individual support?

Do you desire to have a greater connection with your body and your present-moment experience? To know and understand yourself better, and to be able to translate that understanding into tangible action in your life, work, and relationships?

Would you like to increase your skillfulness working with grief, overwhelm, issues relating to gender, race, and other forms of internalized overcultural violence? To understand how you can be a part of making a positive change in this world through every moment?

 

Do you feel as though you've heard so much about "mindfulness," yet notice there seems to be a lot of our experience that gets left out?

See if working together one-on-one might be a good match.

Restorative Facilitation

Are you in conflict with loved ones or others in your life and hoping for a healing way forward that doesn't involve blame, shame, punishment or alienation?

Are you seeking greater accountability or authenticity for yourself, from your family or loved ones, or within your community?

Often with the support of a co-facilitator, I work with those in conflict to try and find non-shaming and restorative ways through conflict and accountability, focusing on interrupting patterns of shame and honoring the inherent worth and belonging of each and every one of us.

I am a proud member of the Ahimsa Collective — a group of Restorative Justice practitioners, educators, and activists working to address harm in a way that fosters wholeness for everyone.

Why do I spell my name lowercase? I was inspired by bell hooks’ example. I seek to offer myself to the world with a humility and vulnerability often lacking in those of my positionality, as well as seeking to shift the focus from myself as an individual to the work I do and care about — which is part of a larger collective and heritage of many individuals devoting themselves to such work over many generations. Spelling out my full name with lowercase letters is an aesthetic nod to these commitments and values. Feel free to ask me more about this!
