The Challenge
You’ve spent a lifetime being the bridge.
You know what it means to read the room before you speak — to gauge which parts of yourself are safe to bring forward.
You’ve learned to translate, to soften, to explain.
You’ve made yourself legible so that others could stay comfortable.
You’ve been to the DEI trainings. You’ve sat in conversations about “diversity” that somehow never included you.
And even in healing spaces — therapy, coaching, medicine, bodywork — you’ve felt the quiet hum of not quite belonging.
You’re the one who knows how to hold others’ pain with care and competence. But who holds the part of you that’s tired of being the bridge?
The Promise
This training was created for you.
Reclaiming Belonging is a two-part, embodied learning experience for mixed race and culturally hybrid healers — the ones who are both the healers and the ones healing.
We’ll name what so many of us have felt but never had words for: cultural dislocation — the ache of being unseen, misread, or fragmented across identities — and explore how it lives in our bodies, our work, and our relationships.
This is not a theory-based DEI or cultural competency training. It’s a homecoming — a space where you don’t have to translate yourself to be understood. Where your story isn’t a teaching example — it’s the wisdom that leads the work.

In This Space, You’ll:
- Learn language for what you’ve lived, not just what you’ve studied
- Recognize how dislocation and belonging show up somatically, relationally, and spiritually
- Explore your story through the Racial Identity Mapping Tool© and Mixed Race Cycle of Empowerment©
- Practice culturally affirming and neurodiversity-aware approaches to identity repair
- Reconnect to ancestral and cultural resources that sustain your healing work
You’ll leave with:
- Tools and language that honor your lived experience and your professional role
- A deeper understanding of how to support yourself and others in reclaiming belonging
- The relief of being in community where you don’t have to flatten who you are to belong
Training Overview + Logistics:
A two-part experiential training series for clinicians, healers, DEIB facilitators, and helping professionals
Mixed race and culturally hybrid people often navigate life feeling unseen, misread, or disconnected — sometimes even within spaces meant to offer healing.
This series invites therapists, physicians, acupuncturists, bodyworkers, coaches, DEIB facilitators, and other practitioners to understand cultural dislocation as a form of trauma and to cultivate tools for identity-affirming care.
Grounded in trauma-informed, neurodiversity- and queer-affirming, and anti-oppressive frameworks, participants will learn to recognize how cultural legibility, monoracism, and internalized oppression shape well-being — and how to support reconnection, regulation, and belonging in practice.

Who This Is For
This series is designed for mixed race and culturally hybrid people who carry both healer and bridge inside them — including:
- Therapists, counselors, and social workers
- Physicians, nurses, acupuncturists, and holistic health providers
- Coaches, bodyworkers, educators, and facilitators
- Mixed race, transracial adoptee, or culturally hybrid people who want to feel whole in their work and story
No prior experience with identity frameworks is needed — just curiosity, humility, and a longing to belong more fully to yourself.
No prior experience with racial identity frameworks is required.
Level: Intermediate to Advanced (clinical focus with broader cultural application)
Unique Value:
Most trainings on race and identity center monoracial frameworks. This series centers cultural dislocation as trauma, providing identity-affirming, relational, and sensory-informed tools for healing.
