I am an award-winning author, lawyer, scientist, meditation teacher, and storyteller committed to helping individuals and organziations foster trust, safety, and belonging.
Join the movement of 300 organizations and their 100,000+ people who have taken our trainings.
For Individuals
True belonging starts in the body. I teach science-backed, mindfulness-based practices to help you heal from bias, trauma, and disconnection so you can experience trust, safety, and belonging in every area of life.
For Organizations
By integrating science and contemplative practices, I guide teams to rewire their nervous systems and bridge divides to drive retention, performance, and profitability.
Speaking
From high-impact keynotes to customized workshops, I deliver dynamic, interactive experiences that engage audiences of any size and drive meaningful change.
I wrote my award-winning, best-selling book Breaking Bias from a global lens, using neuroscience to offer readers heal from bias, trauma, and disconnection.
Our National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded Breaking Bias® methodology goes beyond:
❌ Shame, blame, & guilt ❌ Rehashing history with no action ❌ “Drinking from a firehose” and then disappearing
The foundations of Breaking Bias are:
✅ Psychological safety & radical empathy ✅ History as context for present-day skill gaps (and the science-backed tools to fill them) ✅ Practical, immediately-actionable frameworks for long-term behavior change
I train and equip leaders, changemakers, and professionals across corporate, nonprofit, and government sectors with the science-backed skills to build trust, enhance leadership, and drive meaningful impact by Breaking Bias®.

“I identify myself with this thinking and am sure many would benefit from such an approach. As we all belong to our big human family and since interdependence is part of our reality, a sense of oneness of humanity is crucial for all of us. I commend the author and hope this book would help people to come closer to one another through breaking biases on the basis of secondary differences like race, religion, rich or poor that divide us.”
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, the spiritual leader of the Tibetan people, global advocate for compassion, and co-founder of the Mind & Life Institute
