pARENTING DECOLONIZED
CONFERENCE
Rona, Racism, and Radical Parenting
A FREE virtual conference to help you learn
how to be a more intentional, conscious parent
amidst the chaos to raise liberated children.
January 15-17, 2021
Finally, a conference that centers the black Parenting experience to help you remain conscious and intentional during these chaotic times!
Parenting is hard. Parenting while Black is even harder. Between navigating virtual school, racialized trauma, and Rona still raging her raggedy head, many of you are on the struggle bus, out of gas, running on fumes, tires balding, with the check engine light on. You're doing your best to hold it all together but you need the right tools, a road map, and a safe gathering space to recalibrate from chaos to calm. This conference is for you if you want to...
Raising liberated children, without violence, with love and empathy, and giving them the tools to be emotionally intelligent, confident, secure, and unapologetically Black AF is what I envision the Ancestors would want from us. In order for us to do that, we need to level up our parenting. We gotta heal, get rid of the mind-trash from colonization, shift, and reframe how we view our kid's behavior, and be the change we want to see.
And that's what this conference will help you do...make big mental shifts so you don't revert back to oppressive parenting practices when you're stressed.
Because
"our ancestor's wildest dream"
starts with how we parent
our children.
