Race as a Part of Our Integral Experience

with Tovi Scruggs

In today’s world, we know that issues of race are becoming more and more pervasive in our lived experience. I’ve always had a felt sense that race played a role in my leadership and my coaching, whether consciously or not. I invite us to revisit what makes our work “integral,” and how we must embrace race and our lived experience with whiteness (including white fragility) as part of the relationship in order to be more impactful and effective in our work.

How do we embrace the potential and/or lived reality of the discomfort of all of this? How might we extend an invitation to ourselves to heal? This is some of what we will explore together in direct and compassionate dialogue.
