I offer three signature workshops for employee resource groups, healthcare and wellness providers: Decolonizing Wellness: Holistic Wellness FoundationsExpanding our definition of wellness to honor body diversity, our lived experiences, and individual values is the key to making wellness joyful and accessible to all. This presentation moves the audience beyond limiting Euro and hetero-centric concepts of wellness and establishes a framework for developing nourishing and empowering wellness plans that honor our individual identities. Embodiment: Using the Body to Heal the Trauma of Systemic OppressionSystemic oppression is the ultimate preexisting condition. The body's response to racism, homophobia, and transphobia can be measured on a cellular level. Traumatic stress injuries can come from direct experiences of one-on-one discrimination, but they can also be triggered by witnessing bigotry. The symptoms of traumatic stress can be quite severe, depression, anger, headaches, chest pains, insomnia, and more. The good news is that this normal human response to prolonged stress exposure can be treated. In this workshop, we will practice body-centered strategies for calming the nervous system, processing grief, and managing the chronic stress caused by living in hostile environments.Intuitive Wellness for Professionals: Success without SacrificeEmployee energy is the most critical resource businesses have. Without the right training, the demands on employee energy exceed capacity, leading to sub-optimal performance, disengagement, poor work-life balance, and deteriorating health. Are you and your team running on caffeine and dreams of future rest to get through the day? Success doesn’t have to cost you your health. Participants will come away from this interactive presentation with specific practices for greater health, energy, and focus that they can implement immediately.

In Decolonizing Wellness: How to Escape the Diet Trap, Heal Your Self-Image, and Achieve Body Liberation, I help readers improve their health without restriction, eliminate stress around food and eating, and turn food into a source of pleasure instead of shame. A road map to body acceptance and self-care for queer people of color, Decolonizing Wellness is filled with practical eating practices, journal prompts, affirmations, and mindfulness tools. Ultimately, decolonizing nutrition is essential not only to our personal well-being but to our community’s well-being and to the possibility of greater social transformation.

I offer tailored presentations and a popular signature talk, Creating an Inclusive Practice, where I discuss the importance of developing a practice that has the power to support clients that hold marginalized identities. Implicit bias, stigma, and discrimination faced by BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) and LGBTQIA+ folks when accessing healthcare exacerbate already elevated stress levels, further compromising the health of individuals seeking support and I seek to change this. In this presentation, we explore simple and intuitive practices to lead with compassion and adopt a growth mindset around creating spaces where all feel welcome.
