Hi, I’m Shawny

Here’s what I promise to bring to our work:

Authenticity.

Cheesiness.

Listening with my whole spirit.

A big laugh.

Deep questions. Like, really deep.

The courage to go there, wherever your there is.

An eye for context. Physical, emotional, financial, historical, political.

A commitment to undoing the legacy of white supremacy in my body.

A challenge when you need it.

A refuge when you don’t.

​

Presence, not pathology.

Healing is a gift for yourself and your community.

I’d love to help you get there.
