COMMITMENT
TO EQUITY
I share a portion of the financial abundance that I receive with African heritage and Indigenous peoples, as a practice of reparations and a commitment to collective liberation.
​
I put aside a generous 25% of my income for my taxes and then after I file I will donate what remains (amounting to ~10% of my income) to a grassroots Black or Indigenous led organization, and I will share my donation receipt publicly on my social media.
PRICING PHILOSOPHY
I never want money to prevent you from accessing what I offer.
I currently live this value by offering my one-time Workshops by suggested donation with no one turned away for lack of funds, and offering scholarships for all of my Deep Dives and Courses.
Additionally, if a monetary contribution is inaccessible to you but you have supportive services (massage, coaching, acupuncture) or other non-monetary gifts to offer, I am always open to having conversations about creative resources flows.
REFERRAL
PROGRAM
I honor and value the power of relationship to support us all in being able to live our gifts and have our needs met.
If you refer someone to me who signs up for either a coaching package or a course, I will gift you with 1 FREE Coaching session OR $100 off of a Mediation session, which you can use yourself or gift to someone else.
