Transformative Coach - Energy Shifter - Dynamic Speaker & Facilitator

“I’ve done executive coaching and group coaching before, but it was nothing like this! Erika made me feel seen, she moved at the pace of our group and our conversations, modeled and reinforced physical healing practices, and my 1:1 hour with her was transformative.”

– Jenny W., The California Wellness Foundation

Visioning Ourselves Free

In this workshop we will allow ourselves to get clear about what liberation looks like for each of us individually — right now, in the midst of dismantling systems of oppression + surviving a pandemic, by answering the questions.

  1. What does the Unchained you look like? spiritually, mentally, emotionally, physically, sexually, and financially…

  2. What are the chains (lies/self-limiting beliefs) that might be keeping me bound? And how did they get there?

  3. What truths must I embody/practices must I incorporate to set *myself* free?

Naming Your Chains & Setting YOURSELF Free

A healing circle for BIPOC folks that moves participants through a process of emotional emancipation by acknowledging and processing the emotional impact of intersecting oppression and stress we’ve amassed over the years (i.e. racism, sexism, anti-Blackness, Queerphobia, Transphobia, etc.), how it impacts how we see ourselves, our community, our place in the world, and our work. Participants will also be introduced to several emotional wellness tools that can be used as daily practices to move stagnant energy up and out of your body.
