Liberation 101:
The Crossroads of Desire, Knowledge, & Action
A self-guided, self-paced 6 week course
to help you navigate your personal journey to allyship and accomplish-ship.
Have you been asking yourself the following questions? Have you ever thought to yourself?
There are women who don’t look like me at my gym that I’d love to have conversations with, but I’m too afraid I’ll say the wrong thing.
I’ve been wanting to educate myself more about allyship and accomplish-ship, but all of the courses and books feel too academic.
I’ve been wanting to do self-help work for a long time, but haven’t found a program that feels both timely, modern, and honors where the person is in their desire to improve.
I’m afraid of being embarrassed in front of a group, but an online, self-paced format feels like a safe place to practice allyship and accomplish-ship.
If these sound like you, I’m so glad we’ve met.
I’ve been there and done the work; I’d love to share what I’ve learned with you.

Meet Your Guide
Andrea is a cis/het, able-bodied, white woman. She is a life-long learner with a passion for human rights. She studied international relations and international law in undergrad and law school, but chose a path in the non-profit and wellness worlds after school. She sees these experiences as her biggest teachers in how to move through the world as an ally and aspiring to accomplish-ship: international travel, her interracial marriage (nearly 20 years as a couple), yoga trainings (from a Black cis/het woman, queer South Asian woman, and white trans man), public schooling in the US South in the 1990’s and early 2000’s, being raised by a white woman who grew up in the segregated US South, many multiracial friend groups over the years, and reading/listening to BIPOC* authors and thinkers.
*We use both the term BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color) and the term POG (People of the Global Majority). Some organizations and people use one or the other and have their reasons for both. Our week on Language will cover this more.

This course is for you, if:
You identify as a white, cis/het woman.
You are feeling the urgency of this moment in American (and world) history and don’t agree with it.
You are dedicated to deep introspection, self-reflection, and self-improvement; you are open to change and seek to be a part of the solution.
All of your friends look like you.
You have a desire to do more - investigate white privilege and how we got where were are, but you don’t know where to start.
You posted a black square in the summer of 2020 to support BLM but haven’t done anything since.
You want to move into a space of action and ally ship.
The urgency of this moment is calling you to step up for your fellow humans.
This course is not for you, if:
You identify as BIPOC or as a PGM.
You identify as White, but one or more of these is true:
You’re not yet ready to dig deep.
You don’t believe that white supremacy, white privilege, or systemic racism exist and/or you don’t believe those are inherently wrong.
You don’t have the time (1-2 hours/week) to dedicate to learning and self-improvement.
The collective is not important to you.
You have done and are doing the work.
You don’t believe these times are urging the collective towards change - a brighter, more equitable and just future for all bodies.
“Solidarity is life long work and there are urgent moments inside of it - we are in an urgent moment. I am dedicated for my whole life to understand what it looks like to be in solidarity to humans who want to survive on earth. ”

What you’ll get.
-
✺
Six modules of content that take you through self-reflection, historical and cultural references, and actions steps to take.
-
✺
Videos, worksheets, downloads, journal prompts, and reading lists. There will be so much to take away from this and so many voices to learn from!
-
✺
An understanding of what it means to be an ally and how to move beyond the “good white person” to the engaged white ally.
-
✺
The opportunity to start your journey - to begin walking the talk instead of just hoping to get to it someday.
-
✺
Access to the content beyond the six weeks so you can return again and again (I encourage you to try and complete this in the six weeks, but life happens).
-
✺
An opportunity to dive deeper after the course with a 1:1 add on or content add specific to yoga teachers.
What’s inside
Week 1: What brought you here?
We’ll start with self reflection. What’s your why? Why now?
Week 2: Understanding how we got here.
Part history course, part culture review. Being the “good” white person isn’t enough.
Week 3: Thoughts
What are your inner biases? How to notice, interrupt and shift.
Week 4: Language (Speech, Writing)
Words matter, and we don’t need to not try for fear of making mistakes.
Week 5: Action
Intention and Impact both matter. What are the small or big things we can do as allies?
Week 6: Moving Forward
Where can we continue to learn? What actions can we commit to moving forward?

✺ Frequently asked questions ✺
-
If you’re interested in starting a journey of awakening and you’re ready to move beyond “the good white person” into allyship and accomplish-ship, but you don’t know where to start, this course is right for you. If you’re a student of life and seek personal growth in service of not only your own inner well-being but collective liberation, this course is for you. If you have the time to dedicate six weeks to introspective work, this course is for you.
-
One to two hours weekly is a minimum. There will be additional resources for each week in case you want to dive deeper, so you could potentially spend up to five hours weekly on the course.
-
Yes! I’ll send weekly reminders to keep you on track.
-
Awesome! Just let me know this. We can discuss whether it makes sense to add 3 coaching sessions (half) or the full 6 sessions. You will be billed separately for these.
-
You can feel confident that you’ve started a liberation journey. You’ve taken the first step. You’ll be more informed about anti-racism, racial equity, intersectionality, white privilege, and so much more. You will be prepared to practice allyship in a real way.
You’ll also have access to the course materials for six months post purchase date, so you can return to things again and again. The resource list is particularly helpful (download, save, print it) to continue this journey.
-
The self-guided program is $250 for the six week course. If you can’t afford the program, email me and we will figure out a price that works for your economic situation at this moment - no one will be turned away for lack of ability to pay. Just ask!
If you’d like to add more accountability, you can add a touch-base (by phone or Zoom) at the beginning and end of the program to the self-guided course. That cost is $495.
If you’re looking for 1:1 coaching on top of the self-guided program, that cost is $995.
-
Yes, you can email questions throughout the program. If these become detailed and needing a conversation via phone or Zoom, I’ll suggest that we add on the mid-tier or top-tier (coaching) options.
-
Yes! For a conversation about your organization’s specific needs and to create a custom program, please email at [choose domain].
-
Due to the digital nature of this course, once you have logged into the platform, we do not offer refunds.
For the coaching offer, Andrea can only take on 5 clients at a time, when you signed your contract, Andrea had to turn other people away, as such, no refunds can be given.
-
Yes! This is a perfect use of professional development funds. I can send a formal receipt.
