Hi! I'm Silvana.

Can you reply to this email…

Reader,

​

I really want you to reply to this email so I’m going to make it super quick.

As I’m planning my next year of offerings (workshops, Q&As, mini e-courses, lesson plans, and all other communal experiences and exchanges) I’d love to know what would serve you best as you continue (or start) decolonizing your practice.

Just hit reply and answer one or all of the following questions:

  • What’s your biggest struggle right now in embodying your social justice, liberatory, and anti-oppressive values?
  • What’s preventing your from putting into practice decolonization and liberation in your treatment/service/business?
  • What situation or question is causing you to feel stuck/overwhelmed?
  • Is it hard to know where to begin to decolonize your practice?
  • Is there something you’d really love my insight about?

Looking forward to hearing from you 🌻

​

In community & in rest,

PS.

You are receiving this (pre-scheduled) email while I am preparing to take some time off.

So it doesn’t address or reflect on anything that might be happening in the world at the moment (and I truly hope nothing major is happening… we’ve had plenty happen…).

PPS.

You can read previous Liberatory Letters here.

Decolonization and liberation educator for therapists, healers and space holders

I help clinicians, healers, and coaches incorporate decolonized and liberatory values in their practices so that you can have a practice and/or service-based business that is truly affirming and welcoming to clients who hold marginalized identities.

Reader, A quick update on what I've been up to: 🛋️ The Practice of Liberation, a slower, more intimate space where I share how I’m decolonizing my work, my relationships, and myself in real time.This space grew from the same heart as Liberatory Letters, but moves at a gentler, more vulnerable rhythm — one that centers practice, reflection & the person, not just the profession.It’s for those of us ready to live liberation, not just think about it.You can learn more about it in the P.S. below...

Reader, Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about how to balance community care with self-preservation. Because here’s what keeps coming up: Someone emails asking if I know of a healer, or a training, or a resource, and I pause. I want to help. I do want to help. That’s who I am. That’s who many of us are. But also:I can feel that tiny pull of hesitation. Because to respond—to curate, to think, to connect the dots—is labor. Often unpaid (emotional) labor. And then the spiral begins:If I don’t...
