  • Geared towards those who work in DEI spaces, higher education, nonprofits, and/or consultating, therapy, or coaching.

  • “The Somatic Group for DEI Leaders was a space that reminded me of how much wisdom and story is within my body. The space allowed me to center and consistently helped me to re-member somatic practices I learned before and can call in again. I also gained new practices that I found to be valuable to my current practices, and I imagine will expand my capacity in how I work with my clients..” -Celesté Martinez, Owner of Celestial Alegría

  • “I had the pleasure of participating in her Somatic Group for DEI Professionals. It was a 3 month program and I am grateful that Sarah hosted this incredible experience. I was able to walk away with more knowledge and understanding of somatic practices. Looking forward to other ways in continuing this work! Work with Sarah, you will gain so much from her services.” -Otisa Eads, HR Consultant

Build Intercultural Competence On Your Team
