    This weeks episode presented by Pauline Blackwood of Pendulum Massage is rooted in representation, cultural competence, trauma informed practice and ancestrial wisdom.

    This show is a call to arms for black complementary therapists to investigate deeply how they can serve their community more deeply. Instictively in most cases this is being done already. Now it may be time to refresh and deepen your offering.

    I did a little research to put together this episode.
