In this brief video, the speaker shares a seven‑year personal study of healing practices such as shamanism, yoga, and meditation with healers of color worldwide. She highlights her ongoing collaboration with Hope Edelman and the Motherless Daughters community since 2017, noting significant personal transformation. Emphasizing that healing thrives in community, she points out that most existing healing spaces are predominantly white, leaving women of color underserved. To address this gap, she announces a Motherless Daughters of Color workshop scheduled for June 26, designed as a culturally safe, community‑based healing space for women of color.

Chapters

So for the past 7 years, I've been studying various healing modalities with healers of color from all over the world. Some of them include shamanism and yoga and meditation. And I've also been working with Hope Edelman and the Motherless Daughters community ever since 2017. And I've just been— I've been seeing such huge dramatic shifts in my own life. And what I've learned is, you know, people really heal in community. And with Motherless Daughters of Color or with women of color, we really heal in community. as well. But what I'm seeing is that a lot of the healing spaces out there are still predominantly white. So this is my main motivation for creating this Motherless Daughters of Color workshop, is to create a safe space where we as women of color can come together and heal in community, because our needs are very, very unique. And I'm so excited. So again, June 26th, come join us. Bye! Bye!
