WHAT DO YOU DO IF...
A client wants to talk about racism or colonialism?
What about an identity conflict for a client that’s been taught to assimilate to whiteness and is now on a journey to reclaim their roots?
What if they have an experience of racism at work and want to unpack it in your session?
How will you hold space for this as a person who may or may not have similar lived experience?
What if you hold systemic power as a person of European descent?
Coach, this potent 50-minute class is for you!
Note: while Black, Indigenous and "People of Colour" are often grouped together it is important to note that each community and each individual human has their own unique experience. I will be speaking to you from my lens as an Indigenous, white-presenting, disabled woman who holds many privileges including higher education, being a cisgender, heterosexual woman, straight sized, property owning and English speaking - to name a few.

SHÉ:KON, COACHES, LEADERS & HEALERS!
My name is Emily (she/her) and my ancestry is mixed - Mohawk (First Nations) on my father's side and mixed Algonquin and European-Settler on my mother's side.
As an Indigenous (and disabled and neurospicy) mentor and coach myself, I have been navigating this industry as a space holder for around 6 years and as a client for over a decade.
What led to me teaching coaches about decolonization was realizing that most leaders have not been trained in how to hold space when the issue of race comes up...
In fact, we've been taught to shut those conversations down.
I've had a few experiences with space holders that have ranged from unhelpful to downright harmful.
This class is me sharing what I wish my mentors had done and said when I needed a safe space to unpack ancestral trauma, colonialism, assimilation and other race-related identity issues.
Consider it a gift from me to you - and to your current and future clients!
