Reader, It’s been a few weeks since I last landed in your inbox, and I want to take a moment to reconnect. Life has been full (and I imagine yours has too). Whether you’ve been navigating the heaviness of the world, showing up for your community, or just trying to get through the day, I see you. If you’re new here, welcome! I’m so glad you found your way to this newsletter (and a big thank-you to those who sent you this way!) A few things I’ve been up to lately: 💫 I prepared and delivered a keynote at Michigan State University’s Big10 Collegiate Mental Health Conference, titled “Multiple Ways of Knowing, Doing, and Being in Collegiate Mental Health: A collective call for social justice through integrated, holistic, and multiculturally responsive care” …how cool is that??? It gave me hope to see spaces actively exploring alternatives to purely individualistic, Western-centric models of healing. 🙄 Meta sent me a fake warning that they’re shutting down my Decolonize Your Practice facebook page [eyeroll… if they ever follow through, I’ll make sure we still stay connected elsewhere]. 🔥 I’m finalizing a course on identities and intersectionality as a key component of decolonizing your practice. It’s grounded in this crowdsourced wheel. You can get on the waitlist by clicking this link. ☀️ I will be offering the last round (ever) of the program Decolonize Your Practice later this year. This will be a condensed version and you can get on the waitlist by clicking this link. How have you been navigating all the heaviness? What’s been on your mind lately? Hit reply and let me know. Glad to be back in your inbox. Talk soon. 🌻 Here’s to finding respite within the chaos, In community & solidarity, Silvana @ Decolonize Your Practice PS.

Let's connect! |
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.
