Our personal healing is the catalyst for healing the communities we love and wish to serve.
In our first session together, Dr. Jana and Sounds True founder Tami Simon will discuss the deep personal work that we each must do to heal ourselves. Part one of this important series also explores:

• The meaning and importance of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusivity.
• The work of uncovering and addressing our own unconscious bias.
• Why having conversations is a key to learning about experiences outside of our own—and how to have such conversations even when it’s difficult.

Sounds True was founded in 1985 by Tami Simon with a clear mission: to disseminate spiritual wisdom. Since starting out as a project with one woman and her tape recorder, we have grown into a multimedia publishing company with more than 80 employees, a library of more than 1500 titles featuring some of the leading teachers and visionaries of our time, and an ever-expanding family of customers from across the world. In more than three decades of growth, change, and evolution, Sounds True has maintained its focus on its overriding purpose, as summed up in our Mission Statement.

Our second session shares Dr. Jana’s thoughts on how we can influence the people and groups closest to us, and how you can affect healing connections in your families, with your friends, and on your teams.

• Understanding and addressing microaggressions and what Dr. Jana calls “subtle acts of exclusion”—in our neighborhoods, in our communities, and at work.
• How to have difficult conversations about race with family members, neighbors, friends, and coworkers.
• Raising children who are aware of discrimination and actively committed to healing racism.
• What does an “”inclusive leader”” look like in an organization?

We have the opportunity to reshape the world we live in with mindful intention toward inclusion and justice. This final session will expand the focus to healing on a global level, starting with our interconnected communities, regions, and nations. Tami Simon and Dr. Jana will discuss:

• How we can become change agents every day by voting with our dollars and supporting businesses that mirror our values.
• The power of this moment, and why now is the time when we can help initiate a paradigm shift and a substantial disruption of racism.
