The new and improved community!
Open for all we're offering and mark your calendars!!
Pssst. I’ll be in Portland, OR this weekend. Get your tickets and learn more here (space is limited!)
Let me reintroduce you to this community space and all it has to offer! We have so many offerings. All links get sent day of but you can mark your calendar for the next three months (when I’ll send a new round of reminders of the offerings).
Since starting this community in December 2022, I have never increased the price of this offering, and even more, I have been really adamant on continuing to offer discounts where I can. Accessibility is key, but as I grow and nurture this community space, so increases the time commitment, research, and team to make this run smoothly for all of us.
What started as a corner of the internet to share tools, research, and tips on experiences that feel specific to this community as a bicultural, daughter of immigrants and therapist has now become a 10,000+ community of folks who are eager to learn, connect, and heal.
I have been hinting at a price increase for months, and it’s time! We are currently increasing the monthly price to $12 and the annual price to $130 (10% discount). If you are already locked into a paid rate, you will stay at that rate for as long as you continue to maintain it!
I really want to nurture this community and its growth to build a space for us, by us. And I want each of you to feel like you have a stake in this and can show up, get what you need, support each other, and feel a little more well and connected! I have been taking your feedback seriously and will continue to add more offerings here through the year!
As such, we have so many more opportunities for us to gather, reflect, chat, and learn together. I hope you know that I do not take it lightly for any of you to pay and subscribe to this work. Reciprocity is important in our community and I view this as such, and I am deeply grateful. I am also trying to honor accessibility where it feels right so free subscribers can be a part of this healing community, too.
Please see what you can expect moving forward today:
