Maintaining an Authentic Practice: Centering the Marginalized Experience

We are living in a time where the underpinnings of white supremacy are being exposed and slowly dismantled by pulling the threads of harmful systems. Now more than ever, healers have an opportunity to ground their practice in energetic and sacred activism by lifting, supporting, prioritizing, and acknowledging those who are on the fringes and in their care. This training is a call-out to practices grounded in white supremacy and a call-in to those who identify as white and practice healing work who wish to continue their commitment to authentic and dignified change.
