In this podcast, Bridgette Collins George sheds light on why healing from racism is important, how complex healing is, and what practical steps someone can take to begin that process.
Bridgette reminded us that we, “cannot heal in isolation. We must have connection.”
Specific steps Bridgette addresses are
1. acknowledging the need,
2. finding the right therapist,
3. doing the work,
4. being intentional about who is allowed in your circle,
5. keep learning, and
6. having safe spaces.
