I help therapists, healers, and space-holders bring decolonial and liberatory values into their work—so you’re not just saying you’re aligned… you’re actually practicing it. ⬆️ More integrity, more connection, more liberation. ⬇️ Less burnout, less performative wokeness, less colonial residue. If you want a practice where marginalized clients feel safe, seen, and honored—and you want to feel more grounded and intentional in your work—subscribe and join a growing community of practitioners doing this work differently. You practice can be liberatory-- let's get you there!
Sharing some people you must follow

Reader, You are receiving this (pre-scheduled) email while I transition back from a break. So it doesn’t address or reflect on anything that might be happening in the world at the moment. (And honestly, I’m really hoping nothing major is happening… because we’ve all had plenty happen already.) These are some of the people I started following this year. They’re far from being your traditional therapy resource. None of them are therapists (in the Western sense), but they are IMHO amazing healers and educators with lived experience and attuned to their communities.
And this is a tiny sample of my list from last year:
If you decide to follow them and learn from then, please consider supporting them (like, share, tag, comment, donate) and not just using their content 💛 Are there any people or educators you follow? Hit reply and let me know who they are to share their work! In community and in sharing knowledge and lived experience, Silvana @ Decolonize Your Practice PS. You can read previous Liberatory Letters here. PPS. Happy Lunar New Year! Let's connect! |

May 2026 | issue #7 hey there, i’m trying something new…to honor my boundaries, i’m experimenting with moving The POL to the first monday of the month. i’m also practicing a bit of self-grace—and modeling it, too. meaning: if you don’t receive The POL on the first monday, it likely means i needed to allocate some of my bandwidth (time, energy, or nervous system capacity) to other parts of my full life—and you’ll receive it on the first tuesday instead. you’ll still be getting everything that...
