As we face rising authoritarianism in the U.S. and across the globe, the urgency and overwhelm are real. I love to support individuals and teams who are experiencing the inevitable tensions and strains of working towards liberation in these conditions. I will partner with you to make space for a generative pause. To re-connect to your why, to re-align your how with your values, and to find groundedness amidst the chaos.

Antiracist Leadership Coaching

  • How might you benefit from being accompanied by me in a coaching role?

    One of more of the following will be true for you! You will…

    • More fully embody what matters to you

    • Gain skills for giving and receiving feedback, engaging proactively with tension and disagreement 

    • Heal habits of whiteness, toxic white femininity, anti-Blackness, or/and settler colonialism; connecting with more of the fullness of your humanity

    What might be possible if you move from a more grounded, and a less frenetic or reactive place? 

    You will be able to show up with more of your presence, authenticity. You will be able to direct your gifts more wisely. You will be able to clear away some of what is getting in the way of your most powerful contributions during a time that needs you.

    I can be a witness, a support, a lovingly challenging mirror for you or your team.

    Is coaching with me a good fit for you? We may be a sparkling match if you…

Antiracist
Group Facilitation

  • As a white antiracist practitioner for more than 20 years, I have led thousands of individuals and groups through experiences focused on naming and facing the unnameable, connecting to what is real and vulnerable, and healing the wounds of white supremacy.

    I have spent more than two decades studying with healer facilitator elders across the U.S. - Black, Brown, Indigenous, and white - and their liberatory models for internal, relational, institutional and systemic change.

Antiracism Workshops for White People

  • Check out the list of my previous offerings below. My newest offerings are being developed at Cavesong.

    My approach is politically and emotionally rigorous, centering love for oneself and each other + radical honesty + the cultivation of liberatory power as antidotes to white supremacist conditioning.

    Contact me directly if you’re interested in bringing one of these or a different workshop to your group.

 

  • “[The impact of coaching with Jen was] realizing that my internalized white supremacy (i.e. false sense of urgency, perfectionism) harms me as well as BIPOC. Unlearning this shit benefits us all.” 

    Lyndsi Lambert, Trust Respect Access Coalition (Former Coaching Client)

  • “Jen is fantastic to work with: she is a great communicator and facilitator, well-prepared, and most importantly--skilled at helping individuals and teams identify problems and gaps in their capacity to challenge white supremacy and work to address them. She did not shy away from asking difficult questions that were often challenging to answer but ultimately helped us grow and build capacity for centering racial justice in our work. She helped our team through a process to strengthen our ability to build multi-racial unions that contest against white supremacy, support Black organizing, and Black leadership, and build an antiracist workplace. Through our work with Jen we developed increased clarity, unity, and a plan that we are working from today.”

    Kate Diedrick, Senior Strategic Researcher, Communications Workers of America (Former Group Facilitation Client)

  • “If you're serious about no longer being complacent in white supremacy, then you need this monthly check in with yourself. Being  in a group setting reminds you that you are not alone in this journey and empowers you to keep at it, process the grief, and celebrate the small victories of change. “

    Samantha Bowers, American Chestnut Foundation (Former Coaching Client)

  • “It's hard to do this work alone. Having a coach to process with and brainstorm potential personal practices and/or tactics to use in working relationships is super helpful. I've learned that some of the challenges I've encountered are not unique and that has been eye opening. “

    Lyndsi Lambert, Trust Respect Access Coalition (Former Coaching Client)

  • “The self-awareness that you will gain in these sessions will set you on a pathway toward deep understanding.  The discussions will touch you in ways that you can never predict. You will discover new concepts and structures that can guide you when you have moments of doubt.  Your inner growth and struggle will be the gift that allows you to show up in new ways for your community.”

    W.B. (Former Coaching Client)
