If I had to pick one word to describe this conversation with Dr. Barbara Shabazz, PsyD, my choice is easy: intentionality. And possibility. And community. And… Y’all know by now that I refuse to play nice with arbitrary limits! I could turn to the 20k folks who follow her over on IG for additional superlatives. Not to mention the clients who seek Barbara’s guidance via Intentional Activities, her multi-format personal and professional coaching practice. Add members of Intentional Activities Academy, the inclusive, non-judgemental, anti-oppressive virtual collective. However, as is always the case, it’s best to let my guests do the talking. “What we don't repair, we repeat. Not talking about it, not addressing it, doesn't make it go away.” Are you keen to discover why top-tier talent is leaving managed care in droves to pursue careers in coaching? Not sure why diversity initiatives continue to fail academia? Can’t understand why we, as a society, haven’t yet moved beyond whiteness and supremacy culture? I humbly submit the quote above for your review.
