Interviews with Me


Faith from the Margins is a podcast about the intersections between faith and identity. They interviewed me about my journey to becoming an abolitionist and what the spiritual work of moving toward abolition requires.
Spirit School works with individuals, communities, and institutions to shift narratives and praxis around power, justice and equity, and spirituality. They featured me in their Visions& series, where spiritual practitioners and leaders give their thoughts about "new visions" for the spiritual landscape.

PAST SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS
I specialize in public speaking, workshop design, and facilitation. As both a trained spiritual director and journalist, I have a wide range of interests. I hope to connect with organizations and small groups who want to create vulnerable, transformative spaces. Not sure if we'd be a good fit to work together? Check out some of the topics I've covered in past workshops and presentations.
