Online & In-Person Educational & Workshops Programs

While I find individual work to be an important step in our personal growth, I cherish collective processes even more for the connection and energetic power that can be created in a well facilitated group.

Participants in group work & courses can see themselves as part of an interdependent whole and sense their growth being supported and witnessed by more than just themselves.

Here below you can find my group offerings, upcoming and past courses and workshops.

November 1884 The Berlin Conference : When They Cut The Continent Like A Cake
November 1884 The Berlin Conference : When They Cut The Continent Like A Cake

The Berlin Conference was not only a political meeting; it was a performance of power over. The kind of power that fragments, silences and erases. It declared ownership over peoples and lands were never theirs to own. So this space is born out of remembrance and also out of refusal. It is an act of returning to what was taken, of reclaiming AGENCY, RESPECT AND ANCESTRAL SOVEREIGNTY that were denied to us when others decided our borders, our names, our fates. 

To sit together in grief today is to say we remember. We remember what was fragmented, stolen and what is still present in our migrations, our identities, our relations to land and to one another. But we also remember our agency, our spiritual continuities, our capacity to feel, to create, to re-member. Through collective grieving, we begin to loosen the hold of colonial trauma, to turn toward our own ways of witnessing and to reweave belonging the lines that were drawn for us, without us.

It takes a village to raise a child, but what if the village is traumatized?

This course is not a new parenting philosophy, nor a way to become a perfect super parent, nor even to add an extra burden to parents, but rather to facilitate our parenting and help us embrace imperfection. It is a nervous system and somatic approach to parenting that aims to provide parents and caregivers with a variety of tools to understand their child's unique needs, develop a relationship, attune to them, build safety in their bodies, that will help them become more resilient in the village.
