We all need personalized, individual support building our skills sometimes.

I’m here to help.

Are you a White woman who realizes that we are a big part of the broader problem in dominant culture?

  • Do you want to show up more fully for those around you, but feel stuck or overwhelmed on where to go from here?

  • Are you trying to listen to what’s being asked of us, but getting confused by conflicting messages?

  • Afraid to ask questions or take action because you know you could cause harm?

  • Are you superficially engaging, but know that you're not really internalizing it all?

  • Feeling like you need individualized support to pull it all together?

I (Samantha) provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space to learn and grow, providing feedback, emotional support and accountability from someone who has been there before. As a fellow White lady, I've been overwhelmed and scared to act - and I still can be! We learn and grow by building connections and communities. This kind of specific social-emotional coaching is just one piece of the puzzle, alongside lots of other work in community with historically marginalized communities.

And listen, I get it. It’s a little weird I’m specifically calling out that I only want to work with White women. It feels not inclusive and against the vibe I’m going for. But it’s actually the opposite. There’s a lot of discussion about how we literally can’t help everyone because our experience and knowledge doesn’t apply to everyone. The subscription box, the gift shop, my blog/substack - those are for everyone.

But when it comes to MTBC and coaching - it’s actually more inclusive to be incredibly direct about who it is I’m trying to engage with - which in this case, ultimately helps everyone as more White ladies get our shit together…together.

Transform Your Lifestyle; Show Up in Solidarity!

I understand that making lasting lifestyle changes can be tough, especially when those changes disrupt the status quo. Add in a fear of "doing it wrong", and it can feel like a insurmountable mountain in front of you. I’ve been there before — and while I’ll never be finished learning and growing, being an enthusiastic neighbor is just a part of my everyday life. My own journey - and how hard it was to figure out how to incorporate concepts and integrate practices into my life - is why I offer personalized support and guidance to help you move forward.

We'll start with a 90 minute zoom call to get to know each other and individualize your plan to you. We'll talk about your life, what you'd like to change, specific topics that you'd like to dive deeper into, who else you're in community with and how you like to learn.

From there, it'll be mostly Voxer communication. Things don't just come up when meetings are scheduled - part of transformative lifestyle change is having accountability and support when you need it. Whether a "live" conversation or asynchronous chats, I'm ready to hold your hand so you can hold someone else's!

This isn’t *just* about being anti-racist, even though that’s absolutely a part of it.

Yes, I’m specifically talking to White ladies. But that’s because, in the US + Canada most specifically but generally everywhere, we’re socialized with some very specific beliefs, which spill over into ALL of our interactions and relationships. I’m a White lady and I can tell you with certainty I’ve been “White ladied” by other White ladies, and I’ve done it myself, too.

It’s definitely about White supremacy, but that’s a much bigger topic than you think — and there’s a long history of harm we’ve caused, intentionally or not.

So, from shifting the way you think about showing up, improving your communication skills, finding new ways to connect with loved ones, supporting co-workers or interacting with strangers, I’ve got you covered.

I won’t ever have “the right answer” - there isn’t one! But I’ll be there to help you process and come up with the best next step for you and be there to help navigate the outcome and then find the next best step after that!

Here are just a few of the benefits you may experience:

  • Rethink the ways we're socialized and unpack stories we've been told about community

  • Start to integrate equitable and justice-focused practices into your life

  • Practice having your oxygen mask is on first, before you're turning to help others

  • Discover new perspectives on life and relationships

  • Learn practical tools and techniques for creating lasting behavior change

  • Develop deeper connections with friends and family

  • Build self-confidence in how you show up, understanding that actions are both what we do & what we don't
