“I liked how collaborative the process was from beginning to end. I had the opportunity to shape the content and goals of each session so it aligned with my priorities for that week. Feeling like a partner throughout the process allowed me to use my time strategically and maximize the benefits.
The way each session was delivered allowed me to move at a pace I often don't get to. I did not feel rushed during the process or pressured to answer every question that came up. I practiced taking my time, asking for what I needed, and being intentional about everything I shared.
If you're jumping into something new, trying to discover your creative purpose, feeling stuck on how to move towards your goals, this is the journey you need to be on.” -H.A.

“For the past two years I have been healing my relationship to work and my purpose as I have transitioned out of abusive and toxic work environments to starting my own project that focuses on the intersection of movement, healing justice and cultural work. I met Rachel at a perfect time where I need to take all the internal work I have been doing to the next level.
As I start my own project, I am in deep need for mentorship and guidance to gain more leadership skills. This is the type of skill building and mentorship that I feel has been missing in my personal development as a young woman of color.
My [discovery call] with Rachel had me feeling seen in a way that I have never really experienced before. Not only did the energy between me and Rachel feel safe, but she was asking me engaging questions that no one had ever asked me before. I am excited for the opportunity to work with Rachel in the future.” -R.A.
Invest in Black leadership.
WHY IS MY CONTRIBUTION IMPORTANT?
High-quality leadership coaching is often financially inaccessible to non-executive professionals. This challenge is further exacerbated by lack of cultural relatability. Your contribution supports Black early-career leaders to access customized and culturally-aligned 1:1 coaching, which shapes their ability to develop an internal culture of authenticity and a commitment to leveraging their unique gifts to forward racial equity.
WHO IS AN IDEAL CONTRIBUTOR?
We seek contributions from community members - across identities and income levels - who believe in the importance of cultivating Black leadership. Culture Kinesis strives to demonstrate the impact of communities directly investing in the empowerment of other community members. Your contribution is a powerful show of solidarity whether you can give $5 or $500.
WHO BENEFITS FROM MY CONTRIBUTION?
Community Love beneficiaries are Black early-career professionals who have made a compelling case for why garnering support to develop their authentic self is critical at this juncture in their leadership journey. The next Community Love application cycle will launch in early 2023. Please check back for details regarding the formal process to be considered for a coaching subsidy.
