I love and live for good conversations with interesting people.

 

When the coronavirus arrived and upended life as we knew it, I wanted to stay connected to that passion while remaining engaged with my women’s group, Black Women’s Alliance of Denver – and ‘moving conversations’ was born. This video series began as a means to connect with spiritual teachers, wise women, healers, and creatives about ways to engage self-care within communities hardest hit by the pandemic. Along the way, they’ve provided insights that reach into just about every demographic. These talks have been fruitful to me personally, and who knows, perhaps you’ll find something here that speaks to you too. Check them out. Rest yourself. Stay awhile.
