None of us come to this work alone. We come to this work with the support of family, friends, loved ones, and communities. We also come to this work through possibility models, teachers, people we know and people we do not know who nonetheless show us the path. In addition to the long list of teachers who have given me so much over many years—many of whom I name throughout this site—here I want to acknowledge others who are not only doing work like this, but have been doing work around personal and collective healing and liberation for many years, people who showed me that this work was possible. They have each inspired the work that I am doing, and I am so grateful for each of them.
