I feel so honoured. I was invited to present at the 16th Annual Philadelphia Trans Health Conference. September 7-9, 2017. www.mazzonicenter.org/trans-health 

I will be sharing two panels with incredible co-panelists.  I'll be speaking about my path in learning traditional knowledge to help me learn how to de-pathologize mainstream mental health as a Counsellor and Educator. I hope to offer balm, wholeness, and possibility to racialized trans and non-binary communities that have been harmed by mental health systems.  

If you want to connect on spirituality and mental health, of multi-faith, secular contemplative practices, let's have tea. 

I'm feel so honoured. From September 13-17, I will be on one of the beautiful places on earth. Cortes Island, traditional territories of the Klahoose people. 

The Social Venture Institute Hollyhock invited me to be an expert on Mindful Social Justice at this years retreat. Please come join me at my workshop:

Mindfulness as Social Justice Practice
  
Take your social venture to the next level of positive change. The primary focus of this experiential workshop will be to explore mindfulness as a holistic framework for social justice. By centering embodied knowledges found in mindfulness practices, we cultivate courageous leadership by reframing our social discomfort related to power and privilege skilfully. In this way, we can become aware of how our unconscious biases cause oppressive dynamics. Mindful awareness can change our discomfort/guilt/shame to privilege by leveraging our privileges as radical possibilities for social transformation.

This workshop is intended for those who are familiar with anti-oppression ways of
working and interested in the embodiment of social justice business practices.
