Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Statement
All boats rise together: our commitment to all of us.
We are committed to investing in diversity, inclusion, and equity in our business and in the world.
Though our organization is small, we are a learning organization: we are learning to dismantle white supremacy in our body psyches and the structure of our business. To that end, we seek to extend our network of trusted colleagues and teachers to include BIPOC. We also actively seek to dismantle the traditionally white-centric perspectives and spaces of the spiritual teaching and coaching community to create a dynamic, safe, supportive space that helps women-identified persons of all races thrive.
There is real potency in dreaming of an equitable, inclusive, and diverse future for ourselves and the world. As we envision a new future, we must continually push ourselves to speak and act with courage and conviction to make this dream a reality.
Our organization is actively engaged in becoming anti-racist.
We continue to work toward decolonizing and embodying equity through the following work:
Resmaa Menakem's work around healing racialized trauma
Rachel Ricketts Spiritual Activism
Nicole Lee’s Inclusive Life work to support heart-centered business owners be anti-racist.
Ruth King's facilitation of racial affinity groups.
Learning and facilitating The Work that Reconnects, which supports the end of the industrial growth society that oppresses us all.
Creating an evidence-based continuing education program for coaches and helping professionals focused on understanding and unraveling whiteness and dominant white culture for coaches and within coaching via my master’s capstone project at Harvard Extension School.
